Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

H and I are pulling out of the driveway as soon as I finish my coffee and brush my teeth. Eight or nine days cross-country and we'll be "home". A little road-ma would be greatly appreciated.

My brother in law is in the hospital, after suffering multiple seizures of unknown cause. If anyone could aim some health~ma Michigan-ward for him, please, I would appreciate it.

A little let-it-not-be-too-serious ~ma over the next couple of weeks, please.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

DH and I have decided to be green and thrifty this year, so we are sending out holiday e-cards instead of dead tree versions.

If you would like an e-card from us, send me your email address and you shall be added to the list! alterjess AT gmail DOT com

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I, despite being the ardent ecofreak that I am, shall continue to kill trees and embiggen my carbon footprint by sending snail mail holiday cards. At least they all have recycled content, I think. Please to be sending your address to me via my profile addy if you would like one. My cards are appropriate for all faiths or none at all.

eta that you don't have to send me one to get one. And that also I have good intentions but I make no guarantees that said card will arrive by 12/25.

I release the health~ma into the ~ma pool. My brother in law is now home from the hospital, with a prescription for blood thinners to keep clots from forming in his brain and, we hope, to keep him seizure-free. Thanks for all the good wishes!

H and I are officially west coasties. Maybe one day we'll find house under all the boxes.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

I feel funny posting here, since I'm pretty much only in small threads nowadays, but I need some ~ma.

My cousin was killed in a house fire night before last, and now, instead of going to his funeral, I'm in the process of heading to upstate NY for my niece's wedding. I really, really want to be both places. I would really appreciate any ~ma that I can keep it together this week, as the family has decided not to tell the bride until after the wedding.

I release the health~ma back into the world. I am fine. I have to go back in a couple of months to make sure, but I'm in the clear for now.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I have an Actual interview with an Actual hiring manager for a coop/intern job next Tuesday (special to Tom Warin & Nora -- EBSCO!)... which is actually the first time I've actually talked to somebody with the power to decide to hire me for an appropriate job in like, forever. -Ma will be heavily appreciated....
