Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

Another social casualty...
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!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
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.

My Uncle John, oldest of his eight siblings and known fondly as "The Shepherd", has had a heart attack and is awating bypass surgery.
Any prayers, vibes, or heartma would be very much appreciated.

Thanks for all the fish.
Say, does anyone want to see pictures of our fabulous Lord of the Rings party that Mecha couldn't attend because he moved to Montreal?

My teenage second cousin needs healthma. I just found out she's been been sick for two weeks and has been in the hospital since Thursday, she's spiked high fevers, has weakness on one side, shooting pains. They've given her MRI, all kinds of other tests and they come out negative. Currently the drs are thinking that perhaps it's psychosamatic (she's been under a lot of stress lately).
