signing off for now

Outback Jack picked the right girl! I have new hope for true love. Or something like that.

After releasing a bunch of residual work stress via website tweaking, I’ve got my journal looking and working the way I want it to again … just in time for vacation, sans computers.

Still to do before this afternoon:

  • move car by 07:00 so it doesn’t get towed
  • charge mobile phone and digital camera
  • choose books to bring
  • pick up more cat food and litter
  • clean Zen‘s litter-box and clip her claws
  • get laundry detergent and quarters for last bit of laundry
  • wrap the MSG‘s birthday presents
  • finish packing
  • kiss Zen and hug Inkbot goodbye

We’ll be boarding a plane for Vancouver in less than eighteen hours. See you in ten days!

[Update @ 07:26: You know, I'm missing the TMBG show at the Fillmore on Saturday. I was pretty grumpy about that ... until just now, when I got tickets to see Them in Vancouver on Thursday! Best! Vacation! Ever!]

    Have a spectacular journey. Vancouver and San Francisco are my two favorite cities (after we eliminate the one in which I live from the running.) If I’d been smart I would have lent you my copy of Coupland’s “City of Glass,” so you could study up. I was up there in May for the current Cirque de Soleil show.

    Hey, Mallageddon, you were at the show, too! I was singing “Richard’s on Richards” the entire rest of our trip … hooray for TMBG!
