Oi!

Guess who's goin' to COLORADO!

Yup yup. NHQ emailed me, said my name was going on recruiting list, said I should expect phone call this afternoon to officially ask for me to fly out, tonight best tomorrow OK. I think tomorrow - no other choice really, too much stuff to do today to get out there immediately - but unless something is ver' ver' wrong I'm going to the FIRES!

I will be serving as a disaster computer officer. Most likely this means sitting in a room somewhere powered by a generator, doing tech support while everyone else deals with actual fire victims. I don't think I'll get to the front lines or the actual disaster, but if I do, I'll let you know. I'm not sure of email status or Web status while I'm gone, but if I can I will locate an email-capable machine and contact ppl to let them know where I am, how I am, etc... We'll see.

But unless I'm very much mistaken, I'm gonna spend the next three weeks with my skin cracking and my nose blowing black.

HuzZAH!
