Hey LAistas! I just bought tickets to come to LA, Dec 10-16th! What else to do with unemployment, eh? So let me know if you wanna have fun! Er, with me, preferably.

I've been largely dark the past week because it's Fundraising Week at WMBR, the radio station I work at. If you've listened to WMBR in the past year, please consider donating (I host Breakfast of Champions - Friday).

In related news, I raised over $5500 during my two-hour program this morning. Go team me!

I'm not really expecting this to help, but at least it's a try.

A friend of mine from back home, now living in Houston is missing. He's 30, blond hair, blue eyes, dragon tats on his forearms. He's quiet and kinda shy. His name is Brian.

Here's a link to the story with his name, last known whereabouts etc.

I'm not expecting that anyone will have seen him, but I'm not sure what else to do.

With that I go to sleep.

Hey NYistas - I'm going to be coming to town thanksgiving weekend. Thursday and Friday we'll be in Bellport, Saturday afternoon to Monday afternoon in the city. I'd love to make plans to get together at some point if people are around.

Hey y'all - am preordering Buffy s5 on Amazon. E me at profile addy by 11:45 board time if you want me to share the love.

offer closed.

So, last week I requested jobma. I appreciate those that sent it. Apparently the HR person in the Portland, OR office thinks I'm the greatest thing since sliced bread. There appears to be a hang up in the Orlando, FL office, where I would actually be working. I was supposed to have an in-person interview in the office last Monday afternoon, but that morning it was changed to a phone interview. After waiting all week to hear back for an actual offer, I was told by the recruiter setting all this up (who is rather surprised by this turn of events) that they now want to do an in-person interview, with a teleconference with the person in Portland. But not until next Monday.

In the meantime, I did interview for another position last Friday, but I'm not as interested in that position.

Anyway, thanks for the jobma, and I would appreciate any extra that can be spared. I also could use some sanity-ma as I am about to lose my mind!

House-ma galore. please. We looked at an adorable, funky guest house in a charming neighborhood with the sweetest landlord in the world today--it's only $950 a month, which would give us lots more cash each month to pay off all debts and to do fun things. Fingers crossed that he accepts our application and we pass the credit check!

Any Chicago 'istas interested in seeing a preview performance of A Christmas Carol at the Goodman? I may be able to get a couple of comps (or at least a discount). I'm looking at either Nov 26 or 28. Let me know if you want to go and which date. Profile addy is good.

Bec and I are off to Australia tomorrow. Not sure when we'll be back. Depends on how long it takes for the Consulate to process our visa. We'll be attending a wedding, and I have a job interview in Sydney.

Not sure when I'll be able to check in. I could be dark for a while.

I need the patented Buffista-ma.

I'm almost finished with my legal secretary program, I just have a couple tests and an internship and I'm done. But I'm having trouble lining up an internship.

If y'all could send me some internship-ma some way I'd appreciate it.
