juliana, I've already pinged a local theater friend, and by the time you move in to Lee's place you'll already have a membership in this group and a subscription to their monthly magazine.

I'm so very deeply sorry. I so much hope that SF will be a place for you to regroup and heal, and the Bayistas will be here for whatever help we can possibly offer.

I also have a feeling that a concert grand piano should be dropping on Z's poopy head any minute. My premonitions aren't always so very, how you say, literal.

Whereas my premonition is saying, Bank safe.

{{vw}} Feel better soon.

Susan, that is great news! Woo and hoo! But, ugh, on having to find new clothes.

{{{juliana}}} I'm so very sorry life has done a 180 on you. I hope your transition to the new life in SF is quick and relatively painless. If you need any help, I'm only a 5 hour drive away.

ETA: Oh, I don't want to forget to congratulate the Miracleborns on their new acquisition! I'm so glad for you. And we do need more pictures of red-haired Kristin.

yay Susan!

I can't respond to that poster. it is too odd.

and I hope WF has something for you out here - so there is one transition that won't be too traumatic.

Juliana, I am so sorry. I don't know if she knows anybody but I'll check with my best friend in SF and see if she has any theatre connections. If nothing else, she's an awesome aesthetician if you are ever in the market for some top-notch waxing or facials.

I can't imagine a more welcoming and inspiring place for you to be than San Francisco

Well you'd have to imagine it wouldn't you since you never come up to visit.

Hmph.

t /wants all the Buffistas all the time

Juliana, if you have to come out early for an interview I think you'd love going to Cabaret Verdalet with us. 40s Hollywood Glamour Night!

First, may your move be as painless as possible, juliana, and a hope that everything works out for the best. At least you're not moving someplace where there's no one to turn/talk to.

Healing vibes for vw {{{{{{{{{~~~~~~~~

And big time congrats to Susan on the new job.

Work whine ahead.

Remember how excited I was to have my assistant back? And I'm glad she is here, really I am. But DAMN, I'd gotten used to just handling things myself. Handing stuff off to her and then having to WAIT for them to be done.....see tagline. Not a patient person. She is working up some numbers for me and I need them NOW. It is so hard resisting the temptation to just do it myself.

Hello All!

I am back. After two long (though fun) weekends in 1682, and two long days of food poisoning (thankfully mild case), I am caught up (mostly) at work and in Bitches, and can thankfully start to communicate again (in my sporadic but, I assure myself, adorable way) with my Bitches.

{{{{{juliana}}}}} I'm so sorry life has taken this unfortunate turn. Best of luck with the new path. You really only need to see the next couple steps at any given time, right? Strength and peace-ma.

(((vw))) - best of possible meds to you. So sorry your lungs are in rebellion. Breathing-ma.

Susan - yay for the new job, with the exciting bill-paying-ability ramifications! Best of luck with the wardrobe hunting and gathering.

~~~dcj~~~ (patented heating pad vibes) Here's hoping the muscles aren't too hard on you for the trippage.

That's all I recorded, though I know that there's been A LOT of stuff in the weeks that I haven't been visible around here. So I offer my hugs and -ma indiscriminately to all who can use them.

Missed you guys.

Hardly anyone comes here, greedy 'Bot. And I can't have as many Buffista dinners in a one Buffista town. In all these years, only met one potential and he's said no. To that and to using me for immoral purposes.

But, ugh, on having to find new clothes.

Yeah, I wish it was a jeans job like my old one was, because I really am more comfortable in jeans than anything else--but that just gives me extra incentive to write my ass off and get myself successfully published, in the hopes of becoming a full-time writer and getting to clothe said ass in denim again 95% of the time!
