And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

Compassionately intolerant

By the grace of all things beneficent, my beloved Niki made it through her surgery today. She is still in recovery, but the doctor said it went as well as any such thing could.

I give profound thanks for every good thought and speck of ~ma.

move out and draw fire

Can I ask for ~ma on behalf of one of my best friends? Her little brother went into cardiac arrest, hit his head when he fell, and has been in ICU for a week.

While he can breathe on his own now, one lung collapsed due to a blood/mucus clot. They've tried 3 times to get it out; today will be the 4th, full surgery with general anesthesia.

The surgery is at 11:30 board time; any bits of ~ma you can spare would be wonderful, as they can't do anything else until this clot is dealt with.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Buffista ~Ma is powerful. My friend N is being called back with 7 other finalists for a second interview. (N refers tot his as the "Evening Gown competition.) If she gets through that she gets called back with 2 other finalists for a final interview. If she wins that she gets an offer. So ~Ma for her on getting through that process. Also she has a resume out to another place that she thinks is her dream job so ~Ma on that too.

Umm, and I'm have a biopsy on Monday. So ItsNothingMa for me on that please. A heck of a lot of requests at once I know.

Trust my rage

Hi Everyone,

Tamara's (-t) husband Henry died suddenly and unexpectedly yesterday. On Facebook, she posted:

The funeral will be this Sunday, May 30, at 1:30 PM at Gan Shalom Cemetery, 1100 Bear Creek Road, Briones (GPS may need the city to be called Martinez), CA 94553. Please come if you can, or visit while I am sitting Shiva the remainder of the week. And tell anyone who loves Henry that doesn't already know. Thank you.

Also, there is a website here:

(I asked her permission before posting this, but I really don't know any other details. There has been some talk about trying to do various things to support her through this as best we can. I'll let that conversation take place in thread.)

Can I get a little heart~ma for my dad? He has an appointment with his cardiologist today to see if he needs a pacemaker.

TV news psychic

Delurking to ask for any spare job~ma there may be. I'm going to test in a few minutes for the State of California, then begin the application process for jobs with Disability Insurance and Unemployment (the only growth industry in the state these days). I really need steady work, and would love to work as a civil servant. I've seen what ~ma does around here. Thanks in advance.
