i'm alive, i am, and back buried again. work is an abject bitch, i shit you not. papers piled sky high on the desk when i returned. red is gone three days sos (i learned that from livey) i'm skating by on good will and glam shots.
speaking of glam shots, you blown star blodgers are some beautiful beasts. my favorite is the group shot i took sos i'm not in it. got some singularly great snaps of the crew. the photomat's cd maker was broken, so it'll be a couple of days still until i have digitals.
also, either i'm having a massive allergy attack, the weather is a little weird, or i caught something at the meet. sinus pressure so bad i can't post, i can hardly read. i'm sorry folks, i want to blodge, really i do, but i just feel so damned icky by the time i get home, i can't. imagine my surprise when i saw blight beat me to blogging. sick, sick, shit. i feel like such a slacker.
rest assured, it is only a total shut down of every functioning organ i have, no worries. it's not like i got in this state because you held me down and poured liquor down my throat. go on with your headache free lives, don't mind me and my moaning.
ooooooooooh, really, no guilt. i did update the blodgeroll with the new blown stars, so do me a favor and click through to my new homies. it was a willy nilly effort. forgive me if someone is missing (but let me know, i'm sick not an asshole) and i'll get to alphabetizing just as soon as i can stare at the screen some mo.
i do love all ya'll blown stars, keep on keeping on, and thanks for the memories, the dts, and the perma smile. happy trails.

I had a WONDERFUL TIME in Austin, mostly thanks to you, girlfriend. Counting the days until September, and I've got my travel-alert thingy set to ding me when fares from your neck of the woods to mine get cheap. Love you!
Posted by: Kelley at May 4, 2006 10:15 AMYou did an awesome job of organizing and running the Chou Chuttle. As usual, it was great to see you again. Hope you feel better.

Posted by: livey at May 4, 2006 12:29 PMGet well and come see us.
Posted by: Dash at May 4, 2006 01:31 PMShoe, my only regret about last weekend is that I never got to hear your Sandy Cheeks...and you never got to hear my Edward Tentacles and/or Spongebob. Hahahahahahaha!
Everything else, of course, was fantastic.
Posted by: Elisson at May 5, 2006 12:39 AMFinally the circle is unbroked! Chou has written something!
I enjoyed meeting you, the others are correct...how cool are you?!
I remember standing/oscillating next to you and speaking my own butchered words. If you remember that, please tell me what I said...??
mwah!
THANK YOU and THANK YOU AGAIN for making it all come together. And, a very special thank you for picking TJ and me up at the airport. That was above and beyond.
