My journal -- it's alive!!!

Hi, ya'll. Wow, it's been almost a year since my last post. I should do something about that.

Today, I wanted to link to a series of posts by

ozarque (link copied from

cofax). I put them (in order) in my memories under Life as an Extraterrestrial, and the stories deal with her marriage to a French man from an upper-class family in the 1950s. Fascinating stuff, with the wry, amusing self-knowledge that only old and wise people can pull off.

Karen, you should check out the rest of her journal as well. She's a 70-year-old scifi novelist from Missouri with a linguistics PhD and a long career as a university professor, so your kind of person. Sounds like she's had an interesting life.

Also, Lindsey and I started

gemini_recs, a recs journal which I have not posted to yet. But fear not! I have many things and not enough time to write, though I suspect my procrastination will one day wander in that direction.

I want TexMex, and I'm in Connecticut. Expect much whining to ensue.
