move out and draw fire

(((Plei)))

I just came here to ask for job-ma, please. My long-planned job here in Athens fell through, so I've applied for part-time work at the Embassy and have an interview tomorrow. Gainful employment would be a very good thing!

All is well that ends in pizza.

I would like to thank the Buffistas who sent me Amazon.com gift certificates for my birthday. Don't know if they want me to mention their names, so this will remain vague on that point.

Moving on, because I'm too manly to get verklempt.

::sniff::

Always Anti-fascist!

My hero died today. Some of you met her when she came with us to f2f and she always sat with me while I typed so I wanted y'all to give my bitch an honorary Bitch farewell. I'm gonna miss you, Baile the Wonder Dog. We were seriously robbed!

Our wings are not tired

Here's a handful of pictures from Halloween here in LA.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Gronk. Bed rest is official, at least until my next appointment (18 Nov), so I'll be working from home and crossing my fingers and going very dark.

See y'all around, I hope.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Laistas

I feel like going on an outing, so I have 8 tickets for the 7:00 showing on Sunday November 14th of the Incredibles at the El Capitan Theatre, for the first 7 people who contact me saying they want to go.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

Exam-ma request here - I'll be writing the second Society of Actuaries exam tomorrow morning 8:30 ADT. I'm hoping my back will unlock once it's over.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Bloody hell, THAT was an emotional roller coaster. Wishing all kinds of EverythingStaysPeachy-Ma to Plei and Mini-Plei. Actually tearful about Erika's dog. Damn. So sorry about that. And boy, does MY request for a smidgen of Ma seen silly now. (Yay Jilli, by the way! Yay!)

coughs

Ahem. Whilst hastening to add that this is the least urgent of the -Ma requests around at present, I'd still be grateful for any spare sprinklings of Success-Ma you could will towards my class of 7 year olds, who are going to be performing Rumpelstiltskin tomorrow before the rest of the Primary School and assorted parents. It's only their second chance to use the stage in the hall, and there are already quite a few things stacked against them, but they've been working v. hard and look v. cute. Bless. Fingers crossed.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Um, er, I know everyone is very, very busy and pre-occupied right now, but I'd like to request jobma. I have a phone interview this afternoon, and I'd really like to be gainfully (not just freelance-ly) employed.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Well now that I've come out to my classes, there's no reason for me to keep quiet about it here at b.org.

Frances is going to be a big sister! The bambino is due in late April (which make Plei and I pregnancy twins.) No word yet on whether it's a boy or a girl, but I'll let y'all know once I do know.
