Congratulations, flea!

Do you get ION?
Yes, I saw that one last night. It was intense. It's a great show.
Congratulations, flea!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Flea, congrats! Both my grandfather and great-uncle taught there at various points in their lives. (Possibly both great-uncles, but Danny's the only one I'm certain of.)
[eta: Yup, Google says Billy taught at the College of Medicine, or at least was on staff there. My mom's family has pretty deep Cincy roots.
Also, remind me to never Google my great-uncle Billy again - this was the first hit. Yay science, but ewwwww.]

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Congrats flea!
Slept better last night, but not great, and still tired.

Jessica, your relatives in medicine almost certainly knew my grandfather - he was the chair of Pharmacology at UC from 1948-1974, when he retired.

Any hints on how to make the thing more user friendly?
I make it user-friendly by never going there. I'd rather have the creeping guilt from the "Consuela, you have notifications pending" emails than the discomfort from actually logging in.
... I may be a bit prone to avoidance. Really, I should just cancel my account, but it does seem to be the only way to keep in touch with some folks.

Congrats, flea! Hope it works out wonderfully.

BWAH! I think I could parrot back every bit of your post and it would be exactly what I'm thinking about the whole thing.
I'll be honest, I miss the heyday of LJ.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I feel about the same about Facebook, Anne. I go there because there are some people that I do want to stay in touch with that I would otherwise completely lose track of, but I put it off for weeks at a time because something about it really puts me on edge. Using non-Facebook interfaces helps some - i think Yahoo might have one, but I haven't looked into it because I am in the avoidance part of my Facebook cycle at the moment.
