Bunch of wanna blessed-bes. Nowadays every girl with a henna tattoo and a spice rack thinks she's a sister to the dark ones.

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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I have just accepted an offer for a medical writing position at a small pharmaceutical company in the Bay Area. I will be moving in either March or April, but I begin work next week.
Thanks for the job~ma. It is released!

Well, the final pathology report came in, and I will have to have a course of chemo and radiation. Turns out it was Stage II endometrial, and some of the lymph nodes removed had the bad cells.
Starting chemo next week for two rounds, then radiation for five weeks, then four more rounds of chemo.
Think this should be it for the Beep Me posts, but, again, thanks to everyone for all the -ma. To quote another buffista... it means a thing. Truly.

I'm flying back to the Bay Area for two weeks this weekend (March 4 - March 18) in order to learn about my new job and get integrated into the team and all. And do a lot of work, because that's what they're paying me for.
So if anything cool is happening in that time (Oscars party? BSG finale party? VM return party? Anyone?), drop me a line, please!
After that, I come back to Ann Arbor, work remotely, and freak the hell out as I figure out how to move to California in April.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Andi (Windsparrow) would like me to ask for some health~ma for a gentleman who is under her care at the group home where she works. His health took a bad turn today.
I have no specifics at this time, just a plea on my answering machine when I got home from work. She is still at work.
