Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

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.)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

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.

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.

I told Mom

A long time ago a buffista was having car trouble and wished for car~ma. After that people began requesting job~ma and school~ma and the ~ma is strong. I requested heart~ma for Dad. Did it help?

Mom says

I like it and maybe it did...............he hasn't scheduled the pacemaker yet. The doc gave him a new prescription for a diuretic, taking him off another med. This is supposed to decrease the swelling in his feet and ankles and increase his heart rate. We see him again in 2 weeks...........thank you........

Thanks for the ~ma.

The status is NOT quo.

Legal types...is it legal for a school to claim that anything you created at the school (lesson plans, etc,) is THEIR property and cannot be taken or deleted? Because that's my school is trying to do to people who are leaving, and I'm calling shenanigans. A teacher's life work is his/her intellectual property, right?

If you have insight, drop me a note in Natter or via email. Thanks.

(Side note: if this is the result of using their laptop and backing up to their server, I will not be doing so in the future. I will use my own computer and only back up at home.)

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

So, that ~ma I asked for regarding the company I work for? The owner is selling it so she can retire. She negotiated tirelessly to ensure we would all be hired on, at same rates of pay, and to not lose our seniority for things like accruing PTO. The new outfit will take over later this summer, and I have to go apply for my job on Monday. Would appreciate any spare good thoughts for the transition, and many good thoughts for the lady who has taken such good care of us (employees and clients).
