Cordelia ,'You're Welcome'
Birth, death, illness, new job, vacation...if it's happening to you and you want us to know about it, post it here. These threads are intended for announcements only. Want to offer sympathy or congratulations, or talk about anything? Take it to Natter. Any natter here will be deleted.
I'd best return any residual 'ma back to the pool.
Last week I told people in the Firefly discussion I am writing an adventure for the Serenity RPG.
Today I sign a contract for pilot online comic for TokyoPop.
They both want everything done within three weeks.
So I am going dark for a bit. And I thought before I do, I'd best get rid of any remaining 'ma before someone else drops an opportunity of a lifetime on my lap with a crazy deadline.
Haven't been here cause my computer's not that functional. Wish me good luck in replacing it.(and if you have any thoughts about what I should look for in a new one, please shoot 'em to my profile. I check every day.)
My little cousin's baby was born on Wednesday and the little guy has had to go to the NICU due to some sort of infection.
I used to babysit his mamma. She's a first time mom and just terrified at this point. I'm hoping the little guy can fight it off and go home with his mom and dad very soon.
A little bit of health~ma would be appreciated.
I'd like to request some ~ma to my sister Jeannie.
Her car was run off the interstate this afternoon and went airborne for a bit and is totaled.
She is out of the emergency room, and appears to be having some back issues. No breaks, at least.
So some healing ~ma and maybe replacing her Saturn ~ma.
I will know more later, but at least she is home and resting up.
Crap, Daniel!
Meanwhile, I'd like to ask for -ma of the SortThingsOutSomehowAndKeepPeopleSafe variety for my friend Soph, whose boyfriend is a Kenyan lad called Linus. So far he and his sister (whom he saved from genital mutilation, at the cost of the pair of them being exiled from the tribe - why yes, he is indeed a Damn Good Bloke) have not been injured in the mighty shitstorm of badness that has been going down in Kenya, although his uncle has been murdered, as have many friends. Soph, who's stuck in the UK and very much hasn't the money to help him in any way, has been freaking out for the past couple of months.
I realise that this is rather a large thing to ask -ma for, but since it's our equivalent of lighting a candle, I figured what the hell. Let's send some good protective vibes their way.
A little job~ma at 2:00pm today please. Joe is going to a customer service call at a Major Book Retailer in Ann Arbor.
Buffista ~ma is the most amazing thing out there. I have to thank you all for what you have given me over the years.
If there is any to spare after job~ma for Joe, I'd appreciate a bit of family~ma for me. We have some stuff going on that I'm not ready to detail, but could use some calming~ma as things are sorted.
I thought I was going to have more connected time on this trip, but it looks like I'm dark grey through Sunday, 3/2. Having fun, though, and the whole breathing thing is officially doing better!
I'd like a little "let it be easily diagnosible and treatable"~ma if anyone can spare it, please. I've been having stomach pains and bouts of nausea for the last two weeks. Still waiting on the results of the blood test and the doctor is sending me in for an ultrasound tomorrow morning to check for gall stones and/or other funkiness.
On the plus side, I'll finally find out if my gall bladder is a boy or a girl.
~ma for mr. flea at 11 this morning - he is having coffee with a high-up EPA person to talk about possible Dream Job 2.0! He showered and shaved and trimmed his bead and moisturized his chappy hands that's how nervous he is.
