trying out the new platform

a few of you are over at dreamwidth, so I thought I'd check it out. I changed my user name, just because. not just because, really, but mostly just because I could. I don't play the game that bixie came from anymore, and I was never a big enough nerd to have the programming meaning of bixie be relevant. so birdie it is.

I have a lot to say, but mostly it's whinging so I may or may not say it. for now, the testing will suffice.

I'm going to the town council meeting tonight after all. trying to find the middle way: not hiding at home from the bullies, also not going at the beginning and being part of the whole public comment madness and having my head pop off. so we're going to have dinner and then walk over and hang out in the back for the final vote.

and now, it's making dinner time.
