Enviro-spouse and I are off to California tomorrow. He to vacate, me to network. We’re taking his laptop, which has wireless access, so I hope to blog some from the road, though I doubt I’ll be able to check in on your blogs much. I’ll miss you, my friends. And I’ll miss the cuties in the photo, although I’m so looking forward to not having to take care of anyone besides myself.
Expect things to be quiet in Edgy Mama land for a couple of days. I need to pack, organize clips, rewrite synopses and query letters, clean the house, attend Preschool orientation, and try to prepare my offspring for a week without Mom or Dad.
For some reason, I’m nervous about this trip–not my usual unflappable self. I also seem to have been oozing some kind of pheromonic perfume that’s realigning my planets or turning me into a giant flower or something. In my Snapshots post (below), I didn’t even write about the guy who cornered me at Beanstreets to tell me about his runaway wife, Jesus’ love, and citizen responsibility in local government.
I don’t give much credence to astrology, but I found this on-line today for Aries and, weirdly, it made me feel better: “It’s not what you know but who you know’ in 05, so networking and cultivating social contacts in order to get a peek into their rolodexes is guaranteed to get you in the front door. June and August are great months to jump ship to the opposition or apply for something way out of your league (and get it).” Wish me luck.

Awww, Steve. I’m coming over to leave some love. You’ve been so supportive of that family. Thanks for your big heart.
Oh, look at your sweet and spunky wee ones!!
Yosemite? I. am. so. jealous!! Hope your rendezvous proves to be stimulating, affirming, inspiring and completely wonderful.
Have a wonderful trip! *Sniffle*.. I’ll miss you.
I’ll look for you on the freeway! I’ll be the one blogging while I drive.
AF, you’ve got some Q-tees there. Safe travels and good luck.
I’m playing catch-up after reviving from an internet coma and I missed all this beautiful writing over here! Plus you have little beauties, the key word being “little.” Lucky you. I love the image of Lego chess pieces. I know exactly what you mean about writing and the tribe- I’ve been having DTs for a few days. Travel safe, relax and indulge the phermones.
Have fun in California! I’m really enjoying your blog–just started reading it recently.
have an in-n-out double double with extra crispy fries and a strawberry shake for me!
Neil, I thought you were in LA? Don’t blog while you drive. Sophia would be mad.
Syntax, they have an IN & OUT Burger at Yosemite?
Thanks all for the positive vibes and well wishes.
Have a great trip, EM!
