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.
And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

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".

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I have a lunchtime interview on Friday at a different company. Send "much bigger salary-ma" my way!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
My grandma died. I'm heading home. Dark for about a week.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
It is my great pleasure to announce that Wallybee (and given the occasion, I will mention that her real name is Biyi, so I suppose she's the WallyBiyi) and I have been declared to be husband and wife (not in that order) by the People's Republic of China! The ceremony is on Saturday, but in the meantime we have had some photos taken in a full-day procedure that desperately warrants further explanation, but will have to wait for another occasion. In the meantime, I offer this sneak preview: [link]
Her parents are very gracious and welcoming hosts and I'll be staying with them (and my lovely wife) until after the wedding. Then I will just be staying with my lovely wife.

If anyone has my old 718 home phone number, throw it out -- Cablevision fucked up when they said they could port it to the new address, so we're sans land line for the foreseeable future. Cell # remains the same.

If anyone has Emily's phone number, could you email it to me? I have a job lead for her. Profile addy good.
All set! Thanks.

Ok.
After much thought and deliberation and weighing the pros and cons and throwing bones and doing tarot readings, Joe and I have decided that the signs are all pointing for us to move back to Michigan.
It was always in The Plans, but it's just been moved up.
We have wonderful friends that we consider family here in LA, but we both think it's time we went back so Em can be closer to her grandparents the way Joe and I were with ours.
It's not tomorrow - it's gonna be about 6-8 weeks.
We're selling everything but books, clothes, dvd's, and toys and shipping it all and then packing up the van and driving back. Should be interesting with 2 cats, a dog, and a 2 year old.
