Request for Emergency ~ma. My BFF's husband just got rushed into surgery for a brain bleed. It was diagnosed a couple of weeks ago, and the Drs were convinced it would just reabsorb on its own, but he's been having worse and worse pain, so I guess they've decided to take action. Please send safe surgery~ma for B, and calm and strength to K while she waits.

SFistas (Lee in particular), I was wrong about the date of my friend's popup restaurant. It's MARCH 27, not February. So, you have time to get a group together.

I need ~ma for an individual I work with. I'll be attending a meeting with him, and I have reason to believe that I will need to advocate for him, as strongly as I can.

Windsparrow ~ma for this individual.
I have been prescribed Tramadol. So far it is controlling the pain, so now to find out if it controls the pain well enough to let me type more than ten minutes at a time.
Doctor has ordered MRI. His best guess as to cause: degenerating discs pressing on a nerve, which previously caused problems in my arm and wrist. Confirming evidence. He did the rubber mallet test and says I have the reflexes of a dead man.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Right, so, I'm going to Europe this summer (leaving May 16. Back July 17.) As I was thinking about this trip, I thought, "I know a lot of people (especially kids) who would love to get postcards. I should create a way for people to ask for postcards." So, I made up a form (see below). If you would like a postcard sent, feel free to fill it out and send it to my profile address (or FB message me, if we're friends there). If you have questions, I will make up answers.
Your name
Person to whom postcard should be addressed
Address to which the postcard should be sent
Desired location(s) from which postcard(s) should be sent (I am planning on being in Sweden, Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Paris, and undetermined location(s) in the UK, including London):
Any guidance on what sort of postcard would be most appreciated or particular interests of the recipient:
If the recipient is school-aged, about what grade-level?
Is there some deadline for the postcard (e.g.—if it is for a classroom, the end of school)? If so, what is that deadline?

Hi, guys. Long time no see.
I'm stopping by because I'm going to be in Chicago the weekend of July 6 (for a high school friend's wedding), and would love to hang out with any Chicagoland Buffistas while I'm there. Flying in on the 4th, most likely, and leaving Sunday.
Also, if anyone knows of a hospitable sofa that's free that weekend I would love to hear about it, because I can afford airfare or hotel but probably not both. Thanks!

I am having gall bladder surgery next Thursday at noon; ma is appreciated. Laproscopic, outpatient surgery, so I'll be home that evening.
Made the appointment yesterday, Mr. Gall Bladder got bitter and spiteful, and I had attack #5 this AM. Landed me finally in the ER where I'd been trying to avoid but the, um, blinding pain and my surgeon's advice made me capitulate with alacrity (and I got IV Dilaudid after 2 1/2 hours there, 2 hours of pain at home, geez -- but that stuff is MAGIC.)
That is all.
