Just now as I was sitting here, I realized that today marks my second Buffistaversary.
To say that being a member of this board has changed my life is a vast understatement. Thank you for being my people.

Good news, in a cruddy-sounding way: My mother has finally left that thing she was married to. Whole family are pitching in to help her out. ~ma appreciated in finding her a new apartment, and the legalities and finances of disentangling herself from him.
ETA: Stepfather not natural father, in case that was unclear.
If anyone has some health~ma to spare, I'd appreciate you sending it my dad's way. He's been in the hospital since last night complaining of chest and midriff pain, nausea, and sporadic fever. They've thankfully ruled out heart problems, but we're waiting to hear back about some tests to see if the trouble might be with his liver or gall bladder.
Seems minor, but I just came home from work and found our cat, Patches, dead. She was very old, and had been failing for a while, but still.
I'm building a new PC and am at the stage where I'll be cannibalizing drives and cards off the old one, so, shutting down. Hope I return.
DH is off to a F2F interview with a co he had a great phone interview with keep the job ma~~~ flowing
So a couple of days ago I sent in a resumé and cover letter, on a whim, to a new performing arts school opening next year. The more I thought about it, the more I realized it would be the perfect position for me
I just got an email from the principal, and I have to do a phone interview tomorrow, and I HATE phone interviews, and I would love some phone-interview-ma. Please. Thanks. Bye.
DCistas, I will be in your fair city this weekend. Staying somewhere near GW, though I don't have the details yet. My cell and email are in my profile if anyone wants to try to get together. Plans for the weekend are vague, but will likely include libations at various establishments.
AnotherAlaskan, who used to post here, just found out that his mother has had a massive heart attack and is not expected to live through tomorrow. He's flying out to LA this afternoon, hoping to get there before she passes. He didn't ask, but I know he would appreciate peaceful passing ~ma for his mom and strength and coping ~ma for himself and the rest of his family.
home from UK in one piece, catching up with threads, see y'all, like, later when I do so.
