I'm published!

W00t! The case study on one of our affordable housing developments for physically disabled adult individuals and small families that I co-authored with a co-worker is now officially published (in a larger work on affordable housing development in CA)! (http://calredevelop.org/docs/FlyerPrintCropped1.pdf) I feel geektastic, though I'm a little perturbed that they didn't credit the photos properly. Bobsquatch, can we put this on the fridge too?

Speaking of geektastic, we discovered the most awesomely terrible website last night: http://www.portalofevil.com/

The process for getting to the website:
1) Watch aikido test dvd with Bobsquatch
2) Wonder whether music on one menu is the Night Court theme song
3) Google search for Night Court gets to theme song on fan site (not the same song)
4) Exclaim aloud after discovering that there is Night Court fanfiction!
5) Bobsquatch says something along the lines of, "Of course there is. There's probably Perfect Strangers fanfic too."
6) Rissymonster: "Noooooooo!"
7) Google: "Yessss!": (http://lauren.50g.com/perfectstrangers/fic.html, via portal of evil). And thank god, it's all G/PG. However, "Summary: Balki discovers what it is to be free after 9/11."

now to lunch.

Congratulations!!!

And isn't slashing Perfect Strangers just a little too easy?

(For some reason, I have the theme song for Today's Special running through my head now.)

Thanks, and hooboy yes, slashing PS pretty much writes itself. Which is why the cringing.

Thanks, kind [stranger?] [I know I've seen you comment on mutual friend's blogs].

Well done, you useful member of society! I hope your case study gets read as much as Perfect Strangers fanfic.

It's a pretty specialized publication, though well-known and respected in our field of affordable housing geeks. I'm really hoping it gets more readers the PS fanfic, though I'll pretty much cede Night Court.

Yay published! Again with the ruling!

I don't want to think too hard about the Night Court fanfiction.

W00tenanny! It was really nice to see this in print.

And come now, surely you want Mac/Bull slash and for Roz to thoroughly dominate Dan Fielding, as we all know she would.

Inside, a little part of me is screaming and it won't stop.

Thanks! Hope you're doing well. I'm beginning to yearn for BBQ, though the rains will not permit. Give us a yell if you get a chance next time you're down here, and maybe we can try a Portland trip this summer or something to visit the growing contingent northwards.
