I'm home. Joy!

My AZ trip: the Short Short Version.

It was sunny and warm. I got to see the awesome barda. I ate some sushi. I'm back now.

Longer version later, after I've waded through the 300+ emails.

I missed you all!

Valis!!!

So glad you are back!!! How was the trip?! Man, am I envious! It's done nothing but blizzard where I am...snow, snow...and just for a change of pace...rain...followed by...snow!!! Gah! And yup...got caught in the Blizzard of 2005 (which is rather a presumptuous title, don't you think, considering we have about say...10 more months to go in 2005?)...in Salem...the place that got THE most amount of snow (36 inches). Sigh...

Can't wait to hear about your aventure!

Hi!!! I'm happy to back, though it will only be for about a week.

I missed the snows...what a shame! Hee...

36 inches?!! Aiee! That sounds awful. We received nineteen before I left.

I'm so happy to be back! But there is just so much reading to do...

BTW...I saw an episode of Buffy in AZ...funny thing was, it was such a momentous episode! Evil!Willow, Spike gets a soul, Giles almost dies, and Xander saves the day. What an episode.

I waited on a customer from your state...and thought of you!

Welcome home, Valis. :) Have fun catching up on all the LJ news.

[valis2.livejournal.com]

I really don't know how on earth I'm going to get caught up! Last time I left for this long spent three days just reading LJ entries when I got back. This time I'll be leaving again next week...I may just read the new stuff and catch up in March.

Yay! You're home! We missed you.

(Sings: Welcome home, welcome. Come on in, and close the door!)

[valis2.livejournal.com]

*sings* Thaaaank you for the welcome, welcome, thaaaank you for the welcome!

[katazhena.livejournal.com]

Welcome back, Valis! :)

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Hey, thanks! Glad to be home again.

[logospilgrim.livejournal.com]

My dearest one,

it is most good to see you :-)

[valis2.livejournal.com]

The sight of your icon is so comforting! Makes me realize how much I've missed the LJ community and all of the wonderful individuals within it.

[superbunny3000.livejournal.com]

welcome back! arizona is lovely.

[valis2.livejournal.com]

It certainly was. Quite warm, too, though it rained more than I've ever seen in AZ before, not in eight years of working there.

[pandora-nervosa.livejournal.com]

Hey sweetie! Welcome back! I've missed you. Glad to know it was warm in AZ. ~g~

[valis2.livejournal.com]

It was quite luhvly, except I had to work. ;)

LOVE the icon. Spike is so the yum.

[pandora-nervosa.livejournal.com]

I've had a resurgence of Spike Love. He was my world a few years ago and with my shiny new Netflix subscription, I've been watching the seasons episode by episode. I'm on season 4, but cheated the other day and bought season 6 (due to lots of Naked!Spike in that season). So...expect to see lotsa Spike-A-Liciousness. ~g~

So...expect to see lotsa Spike-A-Liciousness.

You will not hear me complaining!!

[chrysantza.livejournal.com]

Welcome back! Post all about your trip to AZ as soon as you can!

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Definitely! I even have a few pics as well. Woo-hoo!

[julian-black.livejournal.com]

Why, hello! I was just thinking about you last night, wondering when you'd be back. Good to see you're home again.

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Ha! Cute cat. I'm home, yep, for now...though I'll be traipsing off again soon for a few more days. :)

[pen-and-umbra.livejournal.com]

Hey hey, you're back! Excellent. :)

300+ emails, yuck. I once went away for a month and a half and afterwards, it took me another six weeks to wade through 1100+ emails. Good luck on those...

[valis2.livejournal.com]

I have managed to get through all emails in one sitting. I ended up making the decision to simply delete all of the mailing list emails. I'll just chat with one of the other members and find out all about what happened. I just realized that I did not have the time to catch up, and then leave again and have to catch up again. I'd rather spend the time working on the new chapters and catching up on flist entries.

Fortunately most of the other emails were comment emails from LJ, and as they're over a month old I can just delete them with no hard feelings.

[aramintasnape.livejournal.com]

You're back! Great! Hope you had a lovely time - at least it sounds like the weather was good. It is freezing here!

[valis2.livejournal.com]

It was sixty to seventy degrees in AZ the entire trip. Of course yesterday I returned to nineteen degrees and snow, and was sad. Wah!

[bob-the-mighty.livejournal.com]

"I missed you all!"

Hmmmm... and with ammo prices nowadays you might want to think about taking some some lessons.

>;-D

[valis2.livejournal.com]

The lead glorpovat has forbidden me the use of my usual implant gun, so I had to rely on inferior human versions.

[bob-the-mighty.livejournal.com]

Also forbidden was the tertiary skill mod module?

*tsk*

Your glorpovat must realy have the slorrggznnx twisted for your 'awt muurmmuumrrrrr...

>;-D

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Look, the glorpovat was just concerned for the well-being of my nanotech mods. Earth's atmosphere is rather trying, after all. And the tertiary skill mod module was lost in the glorpmail, so I'm still waiting for the reorder to come in.

Mmmmhmmm..

[bob-the-mighty.livejournal.com]

That's what ALL the glorpovats say...

You used GLORPMAIL??

"POSSIBLY get it to in the next few eons" should be their motto...

*grumble*

I'm STILL waiting on a Xrrrkll'xgrak Fuzzx K'prrcitorr I ordered when the Frr'rbgglugs roamed free on this planet.

>;-D

Re: Mmmmhmmm..

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Look, I have to play nice with the glorpovats. If I used tikitikimail it would be here yesterday, but glorpmail gets me glorpbucks, so there you go.

You ordered a K'prrcitorr? Ha! Didn't you read the article in Vogon Daily about those? They spray melitini hash everywhere whenever you try to use them on the sebaxtor setting. Besides, the Frr'rbgglugs' real weakness was candy corn.
