Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Well, dammit. I suppose more than four hospital-free weeks was too much to ask. My dad's back in as of this afternoon, this time for a blood clot. If folks have any spare health-ma lying around, any well wishes and prayers would be appreciated.

The bad news is, my computer is frelled. The good news is the nice lady at the Apple store waived the $100 "we opened it up but didn't repair anything" fee. So, um, anyone want or need the following things, make me an offer? (at yahoo, mearagirl)
battery for a 12" powerbook, only a month old
1 gig of RAM for a 12" powerbook
pretty sleve thing (go here
any other random accessories you might need I might have? Lemme know.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I guess it's my turn to ask for some mysterious ~ma. Some wisdom~ma sent in my general direction would be highly appreciated, as I have a major decision to make.
Thank you.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
The earthquake in Hawaii yesterday was quite near to my parents' home. They are okay, with some (hopefully) minimal damage to their house & land. They are in the process of selling, so -ma for continued safety & a smooth path to the sale would be appreciated.
My cousin was driving his girlfriend to work and narrowly missed being struck by boulders on the highway. All my relatives had some minor damage (broken glass, that sort of thing) but mostly no injuries and no catastrophic damage.
I'm just grateful everyone's all right, and hope for no flooding and a good recovery. They're all used to earthquakes and so are being philosophical about it.

Mostly to keep y'all in the loop...
As some of you know (I made a flocked post about it on LJ), my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer this week.
That's the bad news.
The good news, insofar as anything cancer related can be good news, is that it looks like this was caught really early. Early enough that right now, the recommended course of treatment is a lumpectomy and radiation, no chemo.
Those of you who already knew--thank you. You've been amazing, and I couldn't have made it through the week without you. (Those of you who didn't know, I apologize for not telling you sooner. Rest assured, I'm certain you'd have been amazing, too. I just... kind of needed a space to pretend everything was still normal for a few days while we waited for the path and all that jazz. So I guess you've been amazing, too, and without even knowing it!)
