I'm arranging the catering for my state library association conference, which occurs next week. I've been dealing with various and sundry last minute emergencies, and it finally dawned on me that I should get some help in the form of the patentable buffista~ma. So, I would greatly appreciate ~ma that the food issues go smoothly. Any leftover ~ma that I don't fall on my face in the presentations, that I keep up with my regular work, and that I don't completely lose my mind would also be very greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

I got the White Castle gig!!!!
I'll be in L.A. Monday & Tuesday and would love to meet with some LAistas one of those evenings. Taking it to the F2F thread?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
OK, why am I in this thread? I totally wasn't expecting this... I think my answer was "I wasn't expecting this!" x10 ...but I have consented to becoming Bob Bob's bride. We are engaged!
Also I am drunk. I can't figure how to word this better.

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.
Some "Let me find a for really-real job soon"~ma, please. The contract-to-hire position I found after losing my old job was just eliminated due to budget cuts, so I'm unemployed again.

If there is any spare job~ma, I could use it to convince my bosses that I am worthy of a promotion?

Cheers for the job-ma for WeeSisterJay, you people! In another demonstration of the Might of Buffista -ma, WeeSisterJay was offered two jobs!

If I could bogart a little of the let-it-be-nothing ~ma, that would be great. My mom is going in for a Carotid artery ultrasound on Tuesday due to some changes in her eyes that her eye doctor caught. Heart disease runs rampant in my family, and my mom is already on cholestral meds and trying to watch her weight, but she can't take blood thinners due to chronic ulcers. I'm a little scared, though I'm trying to tell myself it's nothing.

Ms Havisham and I are going to attend NYCC. If anyone else plans on attending, drop us a line and let's arrange a Buffista meet-up?

Our wings are not tired
I'm heading into a pretty crazy evening and day of interviews. I'm in the final stages of the interviews and such for a professor position and just checked into my hotel. I've got dinner with the search committee in about 30 minutes, and then tomorrow I'm on campus in meetings and interviews from 7:30 AM to 10:00 PM. This is a great position and one I'd really like to get so I'm requesting the power of Buffista ~ma.

Posting for ND since he's going to be too pooped to post by the time he gets home: I just got off the phone with him. The interviews at UCI went really well, and he feels good about the experience and thinks he made a good impression. However, he has no idea when they will make a decision and get back to him...it could be a few days or a few months. Now we wait. While we wait, continued job~ma would be appreciated.
