Sick, but not ill.
Jun. 4th, 2001 09:58 amThe weekend was short and mildly sweet, but mostly icky because a minor cold. I didn't get a chance to do the astological plotting, but tonight I'll be home, so hopefully tomorrow I'll post an astrological breakdown of this small corner of the livejournal world.....
I just spent about half an hour reading all the comings and goings of the LJ friends, so in the spirit of lists, which I love, and in the spirit of dear BruceBanner, the mussels in Brussels, I must engage in a series of shout-outs to my LJ brethren (in no particular order, please):
Ridley: Friend consolidation is the best piece making-life-easy this side of debt consolidation. I too had folks who acted all weird when I came out. I also had folks who thought that the reason our friendship was waning was because of my trans-ness. So they thought after I came out to them, we would start hanging out again. Uh, no. Also, in regards to the new boitoy -- I had similar experiences with body issues and sex and whatnot, and all I can say is that when it's time, it's time. Not an arena where trying something ahead of your readiness is good. At least it wasn't for me. Oh, and good luck with job stuff! Eek.
Tara: I forgot to thank you for sharing your wonderful escapades. But I also thought your post about the women's conference was interesting. Reminded me of the problem I had around election time when everyone at the feminist bookstore where I work where die-hard over the top Democrats and believe Nader to be an uncaring anti-feminist candidate who chose Winona LaDuke as a token to appease. Wha? How could one tokenize Winona Laduke aka the Goddess?
Marcie: Welcome back!
Jessie: Nice haircut. ;) And congrats on the anniversary. I'm approaching my 6-month mark!
Joe: Glad your spinning night went well over the weekend. I may be spinning this Saturday night, so I will be channelling your excellent booty moves and sweet snares & high-hats to help me Move the Crowd.
Alex: I'm thinking about you during this rough time, my new brother. I'm very sorry for your loss, and I offer anything I can that might help. Call me tonight if you want.
Limenal: I love you.

Today a full-time intern is starting out and working with us for the summer. Yay. Of course, I must be more productive now that I have someone assisting me once or twice a week on the archives.
I'm looking forward to this week because I'll have more time with g.e. all by our lonesome bear selves -- yippee. But I'm sad because in a week she will be going far far far away to another world (Vermont) and I shall miss her. I will occupy myself with studying microphone placement and MIDI recording. But it just won't be the same, as you can easily imaging. I keep trying to think about how I lived my life 6 months ago before she was around to occupy so much space, but it's pretty much pointless and impossible to do. But it will be about 9 weeks, and we might have 2 visit during the time, and when she comes back many wonderful things will happen which I talk about all the time and even I am sick of hearing about.
So. Back to work. (I have to much fluid in places where they shouldn't be. Yuck.)
