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:
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.
