Urk?

I just got spam. In iCal. I haven't had time to figure out how the hell it got there, but it's a bit of a surprise. Its recipient is... my non-gmail address, but it has a google calendar link at the bottom. Hm. The only action on my part was to confirm in ical that my address belonged to me. And then they appeared in the "notifications" pane.

[edit to add: Ah, I see. it's a convenience feature of mac mail and ical. If my email contains an .ical event notification, it will add it without asking me. iCal preferences... "Advanced" preferences... *untick*]

Also: what's up with friends moving away shortly? Was it something I said?

My friend Michael is imminently moving to Alberta; he told me on the weekend (calling from Alberta).

ferdzy and her partner Karl are quite possibly moving to Owen Sound this summer. At least 50% possibility, according to K. Higher chance if they can sell their business.

I think that's quite enough of that. No more moving further away. You're only allowed to move closer. (With the proviso that my parents are welcome to move to Ithaca, whether or not it's any closer to here... (and it even is closer, by 50 miles.)) Got it? Good.

I've been trying to talk Linda into Alberta or possibly BC for a couple of years now. Do I get a grandfather clause?

Upside: no more Waterloo.

Downside: I actually *like* my job, and suspect finding even a similar position elsewhere just Wouldn't Be The Same.

You're aloud to talk to Linda about it. You're not allowed to actually move.

ferdzy and K were talking about moving to BC, Alberta, or up north for a few years as well. melted_snowball does point out that this isn't the first time they've told us it was going to be imminent, either. So I guess you're even allowed to tell us you're moving, as long as you don't.

We're extremely unlikely to be going anywhere until SB is on her own, not that it stops me from dreaming of the promised land with people who don't think that going less than 20km/h over the limit is driving too slowly and who keep their traps shut when they see a 30something in a handicapped spot.
