If anyone is interested in a nice Ford Escape Hybrid, I'm selling mine. It's a 2006 with just over 42k miles on it. I'm asking $22,500. Hit me up at my profile address if you are interested and I'll send you some pictures.
Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

Interview~ma appreciated DC-ward at about 11EST. I definitely want the job, but it may only be for a year, in which case I wouldn't want it. So, "permanent job"~ma and "hire Vortex because she rocks"~ma is appreciated.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Just to add to the job news - good, if scary for DH.
DH has worked for company T - they got bought by big company C - and then G, a vc , bought company C. ( g is a decent Venture capital firm - they buy companies to build them , not strip them) On Friday G decided that Matt should be head of IT for all of C, not just T. Now, Matt has been looking in this direction - so he is pleased. And terrified. I know he can do this job. If you have met Matt, you know he can do this job.
What I'd like for him is a little calm ma~~, serenity ma~~ and maybe some extra clear thinking ma~~. and since he'll be taking on the persona of road boy again - a touch of travel isn't quite as bad as I remember it ma~~.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, my people! Please everything~ma me, for lo, I am terrified! If all goes well, tomorrow will be the county's final inspection of our new house. If we get our certificate of occupancy, hopefully without anything to fix, we'll be able to move in over the weekend. (Not that we can, actually, since the duplex is not packed yet.)
Please send ~ma for no last-minute disasters, a smooth and unproblematic final inspection by the county and then hopefully the bank, and a favorable final loan package. A good last day of house-building work, and a smooth move with minimal ruffled tempers and breakage.
And for, you know, a good and happy life together for the SO & I (and Seabiscuit!) in our new home! Thanks for hanging in with us through this exciting and scary process!
Couldn't have done it without you (in some cases quite literally to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars; I'm looking at you, Daisy Jane!). Thank you!
eta: Oh! Oh! I almost forgot! You are all invited to my housewarming party! Seriously! (Although, please RSVP.) Give us about a month or so to get settled in and everything working, but we're giving a big party. The SO has already invited everyone on this mountain, so I don't see why I can't invite you. If you can make the trip, I can put you up! We have ponderosa pines and the Painted Desert! Come see me!
