My wonderful and beloved grandfather is dying. He has maybe 2 weeks before everything shuts down completely. Some peaceful and comfortable days~ma, please. He's ready to go, I think. But I'm not ready to let him. He's my geepa. He can't nowhere.
Good luck. Try not to kill people. Hands! Hands!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm off to the land of Juliana, Daniel, and Windsparrow for the weekend! I'd say I'm going dark, but the free broadband at the hotel would probably make me a liar.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Going dark for a longish weekend to visit family in Indiana. DH is studying hard for his next actuarial exam (it's next Thursday) so the boy and I are leaving him in peace and quiet to do that.
I hope the Buffistas have a collective Happy Halloween!

Jobma please. I have an interview in, gah! 40 minutes, and it's my first interview outside of my company in a long time. I'm very nervous, so some calm and cool-ma would be appreciated too.
Thanks. You guys are the best.

A bit of exam-ma would be greatly appreciated for DH today. He's taking what could very well be his final actuarial exam.
Think "6"--the actuaries will know what that means.

It's kind of last minute, but I will be in D.C. until Wednesday. If anyone wants to try to get together, we can talk about it in F2F.

move out and draw fire
I've been hoarding a shard of job-ma for lo these many months, but I can now release it to other Buffistas. I have a contract, and it's a good one! I start work on Monday!

If I only had a brain...
I'm off to the optometrist to try to figure out why my focus keeps getting worse. If he can't figure out an answer, I'm going to press for an urgent opthalmogist rec.
Eye-ma, please.

If I only had a brain...
So apparently the eyes aren't any worse than they were Wednesday, and there's no need to see an opthalmogist because there's no sign of anything medically wrong.
