Okay, seeing as the house ~ma worked so beautifully, could I just beg for a little more ~ma, this time, writing/book related? It would mean the world to me.
Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

Thank you , thank you, thank you, for the ~ma! I got an offer on Carmen from a first choice publishing house! While it's not final by any stretch of the imagination, it's such a HUGE step in the right direction, I can't even begin to tell you. Someone LIKES MY BOOK!!

Punishingly Intricate
The -ma seems pretty strong these days. Could I get some to help my boyfriend sell his Chicago condo? It is seeing no action lately and we are starting to get anxious. And if anyone knows anyone in the market for a very nice place, in a great location, with parking let me know!

I am selling myself!
No, no -- not that! I am job hunting. Job hunting as a teacher is extremely sluggish and, frankly, scary in KC right now. So...I have signed up at Linked In under my real name. I am contacting friends, family and 'Ffistas there to see what possibilities I can find.
I am Erin Gr--- there, so if you get a message from someone on that site, that's me. I'm looking for KCMO area teacher jobs, and don't want to relocate, but am also looking for LD learning gigs, and I am also looking at writer, editor, research, proofreader gigs.
I'm trying to make my own -ma.
Stompies (or anyone else) -- if this is AT ALL inappropriate, let me know! I hesitated before posting it here, but I figured WTH.
Thanks, all.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
As my job is also in flux, I will also be doing some LinkedIn spamming. Jessica A- is my real name.

What is even happening?
I had a biopsy the other day and have to have an ultrasound, this morning. Please keep me in your thoughts and/or prayers.

What is even happening?
Biopsy and ultrasound have come back. I don't have cancer. We're watching and waiting to see if there was just something fluky going on, or if I need any sort of treatment. Thanks for all the ~ma. I hereby release it back into the wild.

It's official - I am moving to Baltimore on (or about) Dec. 1! Huge thanks to lisah for her help with finding housing. She's getting a thank-you dinner from me when I finally get there, I tell you what. (Pencil me in, lisah!)
So looking forward to becoming a Bal'morista.
