Much continued ~ma for Bartleby and for you, bonny.

Also continued ~ma for Aims, who I hope we will get news from soon.

Finals are over! Yay! Go away students! (oops, did I say that out loud?)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Well, I slept a little longer, and my shoulder feels a bit better. Still not great. I'm trying to decide whether I should go into the office this afternoon. There's a bunch of work I really ought to do.

I'm with you. I want the undergrads to finish. It's now impossible to get a parking space, to get into the library, to get a computer with data analysis software, or to get a seat in any cafe on campus. I'm attempting to go around with a "Well you should have started earlier, shouldn't you?" look on my face (but this isn't freeing up any parking yet).

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Hope the Empress is okay.

I'd like some Aims news as well.

ION - I had a really fantastic day yesterday. I first spent the afternoon entertaining Jilli. We had lunch at Roscoe's, then spent some time in Vroman's bookstore. After that we just hung out at Drew & Kristin's, chatting until it was time to take her to the airport.

Then Drew and I had dinner, and went back to his place for an evening of card games with local friends until one in the morning.

Basically I had a fourteen hour solid block of fun and friends yesterday.

That sounds like a very fun day, Sean.

OK, I have achieved sitting upright, eating lunch, brushing my teeth, and taking vitamins and Tylenol. Next step, get dressed and go study? Or, at the very least, get dressed and go to the pharmacy to get painkiller prescription filled. At any rate, "get dressed" is the next step.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Shir, glad the library offered some sanctuary. Hope you feel better, and your friend isn't miffed. Coughing keeping you awake can be quite frustrating.

Give a skritch to Bartleby from me too. Poor fella. But talk about lucky wrt the root thing. Yikes.

Equally wondering about Empress. I'm guessing Joe has his hands full with dealing with Em.

There was more. Brain not fully working. Fingers working less. I'm at my work desk feeling midly zoombie-esque.

Get well soon, Bartleby! Poor pup.

Still ~ma-ing for Aims.

Graduation at the nearby university took place last Sunday. Yesterday I went home from work by the quickest route--through campus--which I never do during semester. I saw parking spots along the way and everything. It was lovely.

I'm glad to live near the university, because it adds a lot of jobs and has a positive (to me) cultural impact on the area. But it is refreshing when the population pressure dips a bit between semesters.

Sure, I leave SoCal, and Jilli visits. Oh, BTW Jilli & ND & Pix, Darla called, felt REALLY bad. Stuck in traffic on the way back from San Diego. I'm guessing near the Marine base, due to poor cell service. She asked me to apologize a million times, and to let y'all know this is very unlike her (which is true, it was very unlike her).
