okay. Up to 6080, and I think it's done. Plenty of polishing, I assume, but it's posted (damn my overuse of italics in this story). And it's circular, though now I'm worrying that I've forced the circle. Tomorrow I should do plenty of crits, since I'm usually very very lame about returning crits as it is.

Farmer's market today, and I got bread and beef cubes and ground pork. I'm making stroganoff tomorrow, and the tomato cream sauce on saturday.

And I may have set a date for moving to Boston, so I just need to email Dena and see if it's okay with her (which I know i could do just now, but sleepiness just swamped me past logical thought, so I'll do it in the morning). And I emailed my dad to see if he has any desire to buy me luggage, and I emailed Lands End to ask about returning broken suitcases. This also counts as moving progress. I'll try and do more tomorrow. Along with critting and making dinner, of course. It would be useful if I wasn't so lazy.

As if I needed more reasons to read Teresa's journal. From the mouseovers for the links to the pygmy mammoth entry:

"We want a dwarf mammoth. We will name it Anacreon. It can live in the same part of the office where we keep the Van de Graaff generator and the Tesla coil. (We've been good. We want a Van de Graaff generator and a Tesla coil and a dwarf mammoth.) Anacreon can learn to maintain the mooring mast on the top of the flatiron building where we keep the Tor zeppelin. It might even like to go for a ride: Oh, Anacreon on high!"

And so far as Boston goes, my current plan has me going up there on the 8th of April, tagging along with Andrea on her visit home. She'll go home, and I'll stay and try to find a job and all the rest of the things a life requires. I'm so mad at my laptop for not working! I'm also mad at my suitcase with wheels for being broken. Bad suitcase! Bad laptop! Anyways, more details as I figure them out.
