I've escaped unscathed from Mormonland, though the conference itself reduced my brain to a semi-solid consistency not unlike jello. Once I'm functional again, I'll get to play around with all the fun new ideas I collected, and possibly gasp in horror at the grandiose proposals I put forth. I may have promised Caz that I would save the world with a

Database-slinging web app, you say? I don't need monetary compensation, a firstborn should do just fine.

But I will need more details. You can email me or I could call you (which might be faster to explain over, and I can call the US for free). I just got offered a database-slinging web app job at the Technical University yesterday, but it won't start for a month or two, so I'm looking for projects to get back into the swing of things.

I'm not sure you haven't already called dibs on my firstborn...

In any case, it would probably be easiest to discuss over the phone. When would be good for you? Let me know and I'll make sure to not be in the middle of pipetting time-sensitive reagents when you call.

Anytime's good for me, though I go to bed early and wake up early these days. I'm usually awake between... Midnight and 5pm or so, Eastern time. So basically the time when most people are sleeping or at work... (Do you still have the number ending in 57, by the way?)

Unfortunately, my lawyers have brought to my attention that previous dibs-calling on your firstborn may not be defensible in court. That's why you'll notice the contract you should have received from my imp minions calls for a written signature. Using blood for ink, while technically without legal implications, is considered traditional.

Yup, that's my number. I think I'll be at home tomorrow, so you could call any time. (relevant because the cell reception in my office is shit-poor)

Does it have to be my blood? For that matter, does it have to be my firstborn? *shifty eyes*
