Can I please have some massive massive buffista-patented -ma for my ex? She had an ovarian cyst burst, is in tons of pain, and had her CA-125 level come back crazy and they're afraid she may have ovarian cancer. ACK?

Can I request a little job~ma? I'm not leaving my current job, but I'm interviewing with a slew of people at my school tomorrow for the 10th grade dean position. I'd be teaching three classes and coordinating the events/student government/teacher team for 10th grade. A small stipend is also involved. I think I would be good at this job and would really like the chance to take my career to the next level.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

My good friend Tony Brown, whom many folks around here know from Livejournal and "The November 3rd Club," has been nominated to be Internet Pope Poet Laureate of the Blogosphere.

He's running close, and can use all the help he can get, so please do me a favor and give him a vote!

Tony lists his platform here.

His slogan: "Tony Brown. My phone is off at 3 AM...what the hell could be so important at 3 AM anyway? I'm a fucking poet, dammit. I can't save the fucking world. Call me after noon."

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

Time Warner accidently cut my cable/broadband service two days early...so, pitch black until late Saturday.

Releasing the job~ma. I didn't get the dean position, but it sounds like I may be making inroads into another opportunity, so we'll see.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Having computer issues--possibly our router, possibly our laptop but defiitely going to be various shades of gray until we get it resolved.

A little house~ma would also be appreciated. If we can get a clear inspection later this week, we can finally get the company buy-out we were promised and get out from under one of our two mortgages. The last inspector dinged us because the stairs leading to the basement in the old house were "not level." @@ All the issues should be resolved and we've paid the last contractor so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Hi all. Just a quick beep me post to let everyone know that I'm being admitted to the hospital up here in Pasadena so they can monitor my lungs and the progress of the pneumonia. The doctor is optimistic about my prognosis, and it sounds like I'll only be in for a day or two, so no worries. All will be well. Not sure how much internet access I will have, though, so contacting ND is probably the best way to go if you want updates.

Lung-healing ~ma would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much, everyone.

move out and draw fire

House~ma for me as well? Waiting to hear on our bid. One half of the selling couple has accepted it; we're waiting for the other.

And if we do get the house, Home Depot and DIY~ma? It needs a bit of work.

I'm getting the pig!

Lung healing ~ma to you, Kristin!

And as she goes into the hospital, I just got released, following an array of tests ordered by my cardiologist. If you have some extra vibes lurking about in a corner or something, please to be thinking healthy heart thoughts in my direction. Thanks!
