Sisterhood of the Travelling Teacup
Man, I feel like hell. I hate being sick, and I especially hate being sick when I don't have time for it. Nothing major, a stomachy thing, but dammit I have no time for this.
I am hoping to go to this fundraiser for Carewest in Calgary in a couple of weeks. It is an evening of musicians, dancers, art, cocktails and culinary delights at a three story art gallery called Artists of the World, a total escape from reality for a few hours, something I could really use just now. The tickets are an absurd price, but it is after all a fundraiser, and as I have had several family members go through the Calgary system (the money will go to quality of life programs) I feel pretty good about the money going there. Now, to find a girlfriend to go with. It seems like a girls night out event to me... or rather, I want it to be! I have asked a couple, and so far no luck, both are booked already with things. But I am determined, and if need be I will go alone and drift around and be all mysterious... that might be lots of fun! Best run. Have a meeting soon, but thanks for the help in adding links... haven't done it quite yet, but getting there!

Get well soon, Stevie!
The fundraiser sounds great - it's amazing what our cities have to offer.
Escaping from reality sounds nice, too...
If you can't find a buddy, going stag and being all drifty and mysterious sounds like fun...
Thanks Dale! I am determined to have fun either way!
Hmmm... wouldn't it be cool if we had Star Tekesque teleporters and we could all just beam in for the evening...
Dammit Jim, I'm a youth centre worker not a caterer... I mean I'm a photographer... I mean, DOH!
Well I'm definitely not a damn engineer!!!!

most appreciated my dear Gypsy! I'll have the cat put down so as not to impede the intrepid burt!

hee hee! Might be crime... depends on the quality of the wine!!
My Gyspy Noir glasses arrived via Bert the carrier pigeon earlier tonight... sadly, while I throttled my own imaginary cat to ensure safety, the neighbour cat gave poor Bert quite a fright and yoinked out a few feathers, then stole the glasses and ran away... I have sent a highly trained troupe of ninja mice after said cat to retrieve the glasses, and am currently plying Bery with port wine to fortify his nerves... he's alrealy eaten an entire bag of Jelly Babies... sez they are not as good as the ones back home...
Gypsy, rest assured this crime will not go unpunished.... and Bert will be fine once the feathers grow back...
...tell me the nature of your medical emergency
...c'mon Tuvok let's see a smile
i'll help you carry on...
Bert the Carrier Pidgeon report to sick bay...
Thanks for the message via Val's blog...

Nuclear Weactors???
Okay Dale, and all other star trak junkies....
Best original series episode and best original movie?
Opps, I mean star trEk junkies...
I think the best original series was The Menagerie.
But I love the whole Voyager series!
As for the best movie - it has to be the one where Kirk and Spock go back in time on earth to save the whales...dagburnit I can't remember the name of it.
