Browncoat Bar and Grill- 40 days and 40 nights by msg

q?

*does firsties dance* Ouch.

You know what the first rule of flyin' is? Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take a boat in the air that you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of worlds. And love keeps her in the air when she oughtta fall down… tells ya she's hurtin' 'fore she keels… makes her a home.

The "q?" thing? That is a long running joke about getting firsties - which I did just by typing "Q" one time in reply to you. When I asked you once about having a kid. I found myself staring at the post that just had that single letter in it, and people complained that I stole firsties.

Oh. And many hugs to your teacher dedication.

*drags self into bar*

Yee hah. I still exist, see? I am going absolutely monkeyshit and frantic at the moment, is all. I might blog about it, for those interested.

If I am correct, Magda will be landing in almost exactly two hours. No doubt she has to get through customs after that. I wish I could be there to greet her. Well, Jimi will have to put up with me endlessly calling his phone

So, yeah, I guess that's it for now. But I'm still alive. I need to start packing, I think. I'm sure I'll forget something, so if I start now I might do better.

I don't want to make that flight alone

Canter down, Magda to go! By now they're both probably well in hand, actually.

I just started tossing my junk into my suitcase today. Whee! I'll keep the chocolate stuff (except the altoids) out for now and place it gently in my carry on Wednesday night. Thursday morning I put myself at the mercy of Continental again. I had *better* get in in time for The Vortex, dammit!

It's 89F and muggy here. We've got severe thunderstorms to the south of us, but patchy clouds and distant rumbling here. No rain, which is too bad as we could really use it. I think I may grab a beer soonish. Better not until kidlet is in bed.. he might have to tuck ME in.

Actually, he likes tucking mom in when she's very tired or sick. It's about as close to pampered as I get, so mom likes it too.

I stayed home sick yesterday, then sick and with a sick kid today. We're both getting better. I can almost smell again!

Her mass email about her trip said she'd be landing at 10:15 Melbourne time, and it's only 8:50 there now, so she hasn't gotten in yet, I'm quite sure of it. Even if she hadn't sent out the email, she texted me at like 6am yesterday saying she was headed out in twelve hours, and it's a full day to get here from OZ, so I would have known it was around 6pm my time anyway. I'm going to give it an hour after her arrival time, then call Jimi and bug him to make sure she got in okay.

There's a big difference between gone and unable to post due to a crazynutty work day. I'll never leave. I love this place too much, and all of you as well.

Great news about Magda landing tonight. I think her flight lands at 10:55 PM. Jimi is as giddy as a school girl!

And more great news...I'm pretty sure Magda is going to come to Washington DC and stay with me for a day or so. I'm pretty excited to squire her around the nation's capitol. We will live out her wildest "West Wing" fantasies, except without Martin Sheen and Josh Molina...

I'm still here, I'm okay, and I miss keeping in such close daily contact with you all.

For those of you looking for your zen:

There were once two monks walking back to their monastery in meditative silence but along their path the way was blocked by a river that although muddy, was crossable. When they came upon the river they discovered a beautiful young woman trying to find a way to cross that would not get mud on her brand new clothes. One of the monks, without saying a word, picked up the woman and carried her across the river before setting her down on the other side where she continued her journey in her unmarked clothes. The monks continued their journey in meditative silence until they had nearly reached their monastery when the second monk turned to the first, ‘I’m sorry to disturb you but I cannot let this rest. You know that our vows forbids us from having contact with women and yet you carried that young woman across the river.’
The first monk paused before replying, ‘That is true but while I put down the woman at the river, you carry her still’.

Magda actually missed her connecting flight because she was held up in LA. She made it to Atlanta earlier than she was supposed to (though later than I thought) because they put her on a direct flight for her trouble. She is alive, well, and giddier than any school girl I've ever known

I'm in a completely pants mood and what's worse, I'm not even sure why! Part of it is that I ordered the last Dresden Files book a week ago (asked for special delivery) and have been disappointed every day when it didn't arrive and now it won't get here before I go back to work.

Still, not sure why I'm so restless, can't settle to anything. Sigh!!

Ah, it's been a good weekend.

1. Sold both my son's Thomas the Tank table and his My First LeapPad through Craigslist. Made almost $400 between selling both.

2. Went to the pool with my sister and my son and had a great time

but somehow didn't get enough sunscreen on my shoulders. Slightly sunburned.

3. Chores have been accomplished, and son is ready to go back to school tomorrow. (He's starting 1st grade!)

Great to hear about the houses, MsG. Are you listing your house this week?

I hope you and Rose have a great time with Meredith and Jimi in Atlanta. I'm more than a bit jealous! HK will be there too, right?

I do recall a time a few months ago when it was all I could do to keep up with the Imponderable and Bar threads as the day progressed. Seems like Real Life just loves to get in the way.

Oh yeah, Magda is here in Georgia with me.

We had a wonderful weekend, mostly spent eating and watching the Serenity CE's new commentary and talking about all manner of things, especially Things You Can Find in a Wal-Mart but not in South Africa or Australia. The others took some pictures, I suppose I will get some posted over here soon (they are all on the 76th page at the moment).
