the denouement of the evening

After posting, I changed into my most comfortable nightgown (newly warm out of the dryer) and my fuzzy bathrobe, and I sat down on my couch with the night's music still a fresh buzz in my ears and a hot cup of tea in my hand. I put my feet up on my coffee table and closed my eyes to a sense of deep satisfaction and exhausted contentment. From the babyswing came the sounds of the little man fussing and stirring in his sleep, so I picked him up gently and laid him on my chest with my bathrobe wrapped around him and my cheek resting against his small head and marveled at the magic of children and my good fortune. He opened his eyes for just a moment and smiled an uncertain half-smile at me, as if to say, I love you mom and you are always here for me when I need you most, and then he superbarfed all over me, my bathrobe, my couch, and the floor.

Sigh. Guess I've gotta do some laundry before I go to bed. No way I want that still waiting for me in the morning.

SFcrowsnest, the UK magazine, has been hijacked by a malicious user

If you are a FaceBook user, please note, the SFcrowsnest.com Magazine FaceBook group has been hijacked. As of yesterday, any messages sent by it are NOT from SFcrowsnest.com staff or myself and should be treated as hostile – e.g. potentially containing or leading to scams, malware, compromised web pages and the like.

Please post news of this on your FaceBook profile and let all of your own FaceBook friends know as a matter of urgency.

Secondly, if you run a blog or zine, please spread news that the SFcrowsnest.com Magazine FaceBook group at http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=21093694832 has been hijacked by hostiles and refer them to this warning which is now prominently linked from our own home page and can be found at http://www.SFcrowsnest.com/facebookhijack.php – I will keep this page updated with developments and any explanation/apology from FaceBook as and when (or if) I get it.

So far only the SFcrowsnest.com Magazine FaceBook group has been hijacked, but seeing it was myself that was singled out by FaceBook hackers, I would suggest also treating any messages from my Rule Jackelia FaceBook group at http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=34257537930 and my personal Stephen Hunt FaceBook account at http://www.facebook.com/people/Stephen_Hunt/1321736585 as being fatally compromised, as I’m certainly not in control of these two accounts either anymore.
