What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

These words might look familiar:

I have what looks to be a phone interview, even though he never used those words, with the hiring manager for a medical writing position in Kansas City. It's at 9:30 PM EST. He's calling me from his hotel room, on a business trip. Which seems like a good sign to me, at least, that he would offer to do that. I could use all the spare job-ma there is, in addition to some slow-down-goddammit-ma. Maybe some don't-say-something-stupid-ma. If it goes well, I get to fly down there and fuck up a real interview.

Thanks again to dcp for making it all happen.

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

You GO girl!!!

Releasing the jobma back into the wild. They gave me a teaching job! All is well!

Compassionately intolerant

Congrats for all the good news and a quick request for Please-let-her-be-safe ~ma.

A friend's mom drove away from her home in NoLa, right into the path of the storm and has not been heard from for too long. We are hoping that she and her companion are just holed up somewhere riding it out. All collective wishes to that effect would be greatly appreciated.

Thrive to spite them

I'm going to be gray from tomorrow until Monday. I'm going to Dragocon in Atlanta!

Shrift, I need to get your cell phone number.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I will be dark until Tuesday as I'll be at a con out of town.

Strange request:

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Requesting job~ma at 2:00 p.m. board time tomorrow. I have an interview then for what looks like as good of a job as I could hope for WRT location and work that's interesting, responsible, and decently high-paying while not being so all-consuming that I'd never be able to write another word.
