As of about 10AM this morning, I am officially unemployed. Shock is in progress, and panic will commence soon. More because there are too many options than not enough, but still! Eep! Applications are being taken regarding where I should move (including "Stay in DC", a position espoused by many RL friends, now-ex-coworkers, and not-girlfriend).

Hey guys. I'm having an outpatient thing done on Monday about 9:30. Could I get a few "It's nothing" vibes and some "Don't freak out like a little girl" vibes, please? Thanks.
A request for a little bit of ~ma, please. Tomorrow morning, very early (before most of you are in bed tonight, probably), nearly-two-year-old Clara is having an operation to clear her left tear duct, which has bothering her pretty much since birth. The op itself should be pretty straightforward, but it does involve a general anasthetic (ugh), so some strong nerves are needed for us parents also. We leave for the hospital in about an hour.
Due to technical problems, the procedure did not take place and is being rescheduled. I'm releasing the ~ma to work on stuff for other people. I may tap it again when I know more, and thanks.
I probably should have asked pre-interview, but I could use good vibes toward my getting this job. It's really the only teaching job available in or near the town I'll be moving to, and it would make life so much easier if they called in the next day or two and said, "You're hired!"
Hey, while you're passing out the interview~ma, I could use some tomorrow 'roundabouts 9:30 a.m. Eastern time.
Please some interview and job~ma headed Ann Arbor-ways right about now for MM.....
And now that MM had his, please to send me some interview-ma this afternoon starting at 1pm eastern, plzthnx!! Or even just some calming thoughts, because I tend to get so nervous I want to puke and can't say any of the right answers even if I should know them.
A good friend of mine here is having gastric bypass surgery this morning. Requesting a little surgery~ma for her to come through ok.
