I don't think I ever reported that the Space Squid release party was great fun, and the readings were a blast. I even had my own posse, as four non-sf world friends came and made a lot of noise for me. Plus, a couple of folks really seemed to like my little free-writes and actually gushed about them. So, that's cool. The whole thing is supposedly going to be podcast at some point. I'll let you know.

ArmadilloCon is this weekend. Here is my schedule:

( for posterity )

Meanwhile, the jobsearch continues; phone interviews, two face-to-face interviews coming up, neither for jobs I'm particularly excited about, but there it is. Plus 'assignments' to complete for one of the face-to-facers (i.e. hoops! to jump through!)...there is stress; bad thought litanies; crying in the night. But it seems fairly inevitable cause it's, you know, stressful.

I may not be the life of my b-day celebration tomorrow night, but it'll be my party, so I can cry in my tequila if I want.

In other news, a brief but heavy rain yesterday. High winds first; I sat on my balcony and watched the rain come in, then got wet in it, then sat by the screen door watching and breathing it in for the duration. Very soothing to my poor stress-burned psyche.
