And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

Again with the condolence ~ma, I'm afraid. A very good friend passed away in the night; it was quite quick at the end, and he'd been sick a long time. Any extra ~ma for his son, who at nineteen is now without a mother and a father, would be appreciated.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

In slightly less distressing news, my flight home to the States is today at 2.30 central time. I'd appreciate any stray thoughts of travel-ma while I'm going home to finish my last semester of college.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I need to ask for some interview ~ma. Or in this case some second-interview~ma.

I applied for one position with a written interview, but got called in for a f2f interview Monday for a different position. when I got there on Monday, I was given to a third person to interview for a third position. Now I just got a call for a second f2f interview, but for the second position on Thursday at 3 pm CST.

Update: Matt's mom seems to be holding her own. Tires very easily, but still 100% with us.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I may be going dark for a little while since a) my computer is in need of repairs (the power connector won't deliver a charge) and b) I can't access the board--or my email--from work.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I had an interview today that I think went pretty well, but I won't hear until Monday. Any job~ma you can send my way will be greatly appreciated.
