I'm moving to Chicago in May. I think I've got everything covered but a job, and I'll be looking for one over the next two months.
It's not a big move, but in my defense, it is a whole new time zone!
I-I'm just taking things without paying for th... In what twisted dictionary is that stealing?

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Job-ma sought, my lovelies - I'm busy sending off applications like a good girl, because this job ends in 4 months' time, but the interviews they are scarce. Open minded about where I work - I've applied to Tokyo, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Korea, Mexico, Brazil, Chicago, Boston, Prague, Bratislava, Rome and umpteen other places. Somewhere just needs to give me a job.
Somewhere where the bosses aren't secretly Wolfram and Hart, that is. Insh'allah.

I'm in LA, and it looks nice outside, so Kristin and I are planning to go to the Getty this afternoon. If anyone else wants to come, give us a call! My cell (which I expect I shall take down before we leave, so anyone who wants to stalk me, take note quickly!) is (too late!)

This weekend, Greg and I made an offer on a house. Today, the agent called and told us that the seller considers it "a very solid offer." There's a problem with an assessment against the house by the city that has to be sorted, but it's 99% likely that we have a house.
Over a month ago, buffistas got together and gathered some funds for this project. That money will be paying the home inspectors next week.
It would have been awfully hard to do this without you and we are so very grateful. Come visit us in Cleveland and hang out in the Buffista house anytime. You're all more than welcome.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Our wings are not tired
Pictures from The Getty with Meara, Aimee, Kristin, and Emeline.
It was an amazingly clear day out so there are a ton of pictures.

And I have a couple more...the last few here (anything with a "getty" tag, though technically a couple were taken at home)

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Corporation-wide reorg.
I just got laid off.
I'd appreciate much jobma and if any Bay Area Buffistas have good leads, please let me know.

Quick update: My surgery went well and recovery seems to be going just swimmingly so far. Still need to wait on the final pathology report to determine whether any further treatment will be necessary. Again, I'm hoping not, but...
Am seeing the doctor on Monday to get destapled and go over the path report.
I feel physically way better much more quickly than I'd guessed, so a big yay for that. Thanks for all the -ma, everyone.

Following Jen's good news, some more good news: I just got an e-mail from Wolfram:
Baby girl born last night, 7 lbs / 19 inches. Mother and baby are doing well, thank G*d.
