We're back in LA. I've never been so happy to see brown air.

All is well that ends in pizza.
My mom's boyfriend Ray had a small stroke on Thanksgiving day. Please send Buffista ~ma to him in the ICU if you have some extra sitting around.

not your mom's socks.
if there's health~ma free, my coding collaborator's girlfriend, S. is in the ER - they think appendicitis, but they don't seem to be really rushing to fix her. Quick resolution ~ma is welcome too.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Our old house has been listed and is finally ready to show--a little house-selling ~ma in this really lousy market would be appreciated.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
A little health~ma for my grandfather who has been in SICU since last Wednesday after his gall bladder-ectomy. In the past few days he's gone from doing "very well for a 91 year-old man" to not doing so well - his pneumonia isn't clearing up and they may have to put him back on the ventilator.

I'm releasing much of the ~ma for my collaborator's girlfriend back out (and pushing it in Jessica's direction). She's still in the hospital, but off oxygen and walking around. She had surgery - they still don't know the full outcome of that. A little worrisome, but it is good to see her out of bed. And mad at me for the get well lolcat I sent to her.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie
My request for ~ma seems petty considering everything else going on, but what the heck. A little please-don't-call-me-in-for-jury-duty-until-at-least-Wednesday ~ma would be appreciated. Monday and Tuesday are the days that the potential new head of school will be visiting, and I really need to be here. I have to start checking in starting Sunday night, so I'm really nervous that I'm going to miss one of those two days. I know it might not sound like a big deal, but it really is to me. Thanks.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Matt and I would like y'all to send a bit of health ma~~~ our friend W's way. He had a heart attack on Saturday , but due to his nonstubbornness about the doctor, an aspirin and a n ambulance that arrived in 5 minutes - he looks like he has some damage, but all we be well. His wife J is going to need some extra patience. W and J have been married for 45 years - working together as well as being married. The are very good friends and people that mean a lot to us.
