Wednesday, July 19, 2006 - A Non-Depressing Excuse

That's right - a non-depressing excuse for my lack of posting since Sunday. Two things, really. First, Goodbye, Darwin is coming together at an astonishingly fast pace. I can say, with a pretty decent amount of confidence (let's say 75%), that I'll only need as many days as there are fingers on my hands to get the thing complete and sent off to the printer. So, I've been busy coordinating things on that.

Also, I'm moving. In twelve days. It's a little earlier than originally anticipated, but, now that I'm single, staying alone in my bachelor apartment seemed a lot less fun than moving to a place with a roommate that's on one of the most popular streets in the entire city. Seriously, the number of bars within walking distance of my front doorstep will outnumber my dead or dying hair follicles by a significant margin (see picture at left for an illustration of why this translates to: holy crap, that's a lot bars!).

Since I'll be doing a lot of running around between packing, making address changes and doing all that kind of moving type stuff as well as working on the anthology, I'm going to on hiatus from blogging for the remainder of the month. I've been told by my future roomie that the new place already has the net hooked up, so there shouldn't be any problems as far as getting hooked up again goes (but, well, you know how computers can be sometimes). In the meantime, have fun!

One last note. Melly's gone to Israel to be with her family during this crisis. Drop by her blog and let her know we're all hoping that everyone comes through alright.
