In case any of y'all were coming to DC for the big Women's March at the end of April, you should know there's a big drag king show the night before. For your enjoyment. Cause we figured if there were going to be a million extra women in town, some of them would appreciate....

Well, I'm requesting some ~ma. I'm sensing on the wind at the all girls school where I teach that they are looking to combine two part time positions (One of them being mine) into a full time position. I'm not at all interested in going full time, so if this happens I'll lose my job there next year. I'm on contract through then end of summer so it's nothing immediate. Also, the school needs to do what is best for them. I've been there for 5 wonderful years and love the girls, but if it is done, it is done. So, the ~ma that I'm looking for is more along the lines of everything working out for the best. If I keep the job there that would be cool, but I'd also be totally cool with finding other work to fill that gap in my income. It could be another college level adjunct position, or just more frequency on the larger design stuff.

I've never done this before but I've recently uprooted my life and moved out East to get a life and find a job and I'm requesting a little jobma for tomorrow. I have a second interview with a very cool nonprofit organization and getting the thing would mean having my first real job after a long series of retail, low-paying temp jobs, and non-paying internships. It would also mean the fulfillment of my seemingly impossible quest - full health benefits!

I'd like some budgeting and job-ma for this summer and fall. I found out that my graduate internship (which includes a fall/winter tuition stipend) will not be renewed -- it's a yearly contract, and since I student teach in the spring, I wouldn't be able to work then, so...no renewal. Also, I found out that the financial aid I get for summer will cover only my tuition, and my stipend for my job won't pay my rent and bills, so I need to find a night and weekend job. I'm-a starting scouting now, and applying in two weeks.

So any -ma in that general nature would be appreciated! Grazie.

I want to thank the Buffistas for the jobma - it worked once again! I found out that I got the job today and I start on Tuesday. I'll be working for a great organization that trys to get the government to treat working people more fairly. I'm returning the jobma, and in addition, I'll be throwing out extra -ma vibes to all the Buffistas who need it.

t gives Jobma a kiss and retuns it to the grove of Buffista goodwill

A friend of mine, Katherine Lawrence, is missing from her home in Arizona. She took her car. She left a suicide note. She could be anywhere. She changes her mind a lot, so there is lots of hope. If anyone has any information, please contact the Tucson police. Or me. Or post in her LJ.

Her LJ name is kathlaw.

Thank you.
