Art Crawl!!!

I did not know that it was possible to get kicked out of ComicCon for a costume that was too skimpy.

How is NC in November (mid)?

In the central area it tends to cool down to the 50s-60s during the day. Sometimes we get our first frost at night. The leaves will generally start to fall by then, so things can start looking a tad barren, even if it's still sunny.

Oh dear, that's unfortunate. She loves Aeon Flux! She was awesome (and dressed as Leeloo) in the Oh! You Sexy Geek panel.

If you're thinking of coming to the Triangle area and want to meet up with the localistas, just let us know!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm not going anywhere near Google+. I don't mind being a product, I mind being an easily disposable product.

Ahaha, I feel like I need to go post that link in the Reality thread. Oh, Adrienne.

Now I'm homesick for NC in the fall.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Ugh. I just got my formal job offer, and it is the lowest possible offer that HR is legally required to make. My new admin director fought back on it, but HR categorically refused to budge. I mean, it's still good because I'm now at least at the bottom of a much higher career track instead of near the top of a dead-end one (and they're going try to make up for it by enrolling me in the managers' mentorship program and any upper level training courses I want - maybe web development?), but damn how I wanted things to just be Better, not marginally better with another 2-year hard slog ahead to the next step once I've clocked in another 12 months. But I've been here 18 1/2 years. It'd be insane to start over from scratch somewhere else.

And yet, it's still miles better than the completely disheartening and sickening shitfest at Suela's workplace.

That's...really interesting about the G+ stuff. I'd read about the pseud stuff, but i didn't know about the pulling of all the Google stuff. That's...effed up.

JZ, ugh. I'm sorry -- I wish they'd given you piles more of money.
