a missive from Robin's DH:
Hi, Friends --
Robin asked me to give you a report on her day today.
She came through her surgery with flying colors, and she is well. Surgery took a little longer than expected, due to extensive scarring from endometriosis, but other than that, no unforseen complications or difficulties. She’s groggy but not in too much pain right now, and happy to be finished with the surgery.
She’ll be back home by Friday, hopefully. Until then she’s at Providence St. Joseph Hospital in Burbank under the name “Robin Miller.” Please don't send flowers, as Jason is allergic to them.
Thanks for your good thoughts.
Best,
Jason
I'd like to ask for a bit of sanity~ma. All of my applications and interviews with UCI have been done for almost two weeks and now I'm just in the zone of waiting to hear about the job. I think I'm slowly going insane. I really want this job and just waiting it about to drive me totally nuts.
Hello. I am not dead. REPEAT: NOT. DEAD.
Just really grey, but a nice shot of MAC blush should take care of that. I am swamped at work, and have no net at home. Zero, zip.
Oh, PSA: in addition to not being dead, my accountant friend "found" me some money from old accounts on missingmoney.com.
Try it! I got $50 back from old utilities and a dental thingie! My car's STILL in the shop, so $50 is like, whoa!
Love,
Not Dead Erin with $50 Who IS Not Nattering on Beep Me, Nope, All Pertinent Announcements with Added Smartass.
Some interview~ma at 2pm Central today would be greatly appreciated. I have a chance at a direct-hire position (most companies only want to do contracts these days it seems) with a really good company and would love to get this job.
I'm home from the hospital! Recovery has been pretty smooth so far, except for the side effect from Vicodin which was sudden unexpected projectile vomiting. Trust me, not what you want to be doing the day after surgery. Soon as we figured that out, though, all has been pretty smooth sailing.
Could I have some Buffista~ma sent in the direction of Nashville? My mother's in the hospital with fluid in her lungs, probably related to heart failure. They're trying to get the fluid down now, but we don't yet know how serious it is.
Mother is much better this morning. Now I just need a little ~ma towards finding treatment that keeps her from getting this bad again. Thanks, everyone. It's good to know you're out there.
Just an FYI to think ahead--LAistas, I'll be in your city Monday afternoon through Friday morning the first week of April (I think that's the 2nd-6th?). Working Tues-Thurs, same place as last time...would love to see anyone!
I need a little job~ma, if possible. I can't really talk about it, because it is new and legal like, but it is possible that my University department will "shut down".
I have a lunchtime interview on Friday at a different company. Send "much bigger salary-ma" my way!
