Tom Warin and I are engaged.
I asked him to marry me, as is tradition, on Sadie Hawkins Day. He said yes and counteroffered with a beautiful sapphire ring.
Why, yes, we are both deliriously happy and wish that we could post this jointly from both our accounts.
We want to thank you all for having this community, where we both met and fell in love.
We are giggling and Tom is kissing my neck as we speak.
FAQ to follow in the next few days. :)
FYI, you all are getting this announcement before most of our families. This may have something to do with the fact that it is almost midnight, but it also has to do with the fact that this is where we found each other and we wanted to tell you as soon as possible.
xoxoxo
Jobma request for SF Bay Area, Wednesday, 10am board time. Finally. Second interview, very nearly the dream job. Funding~ma and professional~ma would also be appreciated.
Thanks so much.
About a month ago, I made two requests for jobma here and now I'm finally ready to release the -ma back into the wild. I got the job that I was applying for. My last day at current job is Friday. Then it's ten sweet, sweet days of vacation (and also just generally getting up to speed on the new job). I start the new job on March 15th. Thanks for all of the -ma, Buffistas. That is some powerful mojo!
Those of you who have been following the Betsy H-P saga will probably not be suprised, though no doubt chagrined, to hear that her cough continued to worsen and now has the added fillip of pneumonia. She's spending tonight in a fine hospital, in good spirits after access to oxygen and good inhalants, and will no doubt be all better soon. However, speaking for the whole H-P clan, ENOUGH ALREADY!
Health-ma, or general -ma, appreciated.
I am going dark for a few days.
I'm home from the hospital. (Actually, I got home yesterday afternoon, but was exhausted.) Thanks for all the -ma. I am still very tired, but breathing much more freely.
If anyone has a way of getting a hold of Meara in a more immediate fashion than email, could you let her know that I need a phone number for her ASAP? I need it to finish ordering something for her.
Rob, she's listed. Or at least she shows up on Caller ID under her own name, so...
Rob, I've just left a message for meara on her cell phone.
I'll be out of town for a writer's residency and will be dark grey until Friday night. Profile email works if anyone needs to contact me, I'll be checking it twice daily.
