Well, that was darker than I had intended to be.

Coming up for air, going back below soon.

Love to those who need or want it; I'm alive and doing OK, just utterly swamped at work.

Those of you who have my IM information, please feel free to use it. Those who don't have it but want it, please e-mail me at the profile address.

Take care of each other, lovely people. The world needs all of you.

Going to be dark for approximately the next week, as I road trip across the Midwest.

Take care.

Happy Saturday too good for regular Natter! First, did our taxes and thanks in part to some new tax credit I'd never heard of, we're getting $2100 back! Go graduate school and unemployment!

Second, we found the perfect house to rent! It's a bungalow, built 1920, 3 br, hardwoods throughout, built-in glass cabinets, working fireplace, front porch swing, for $$ which is good in local terms. And in a perfect location so I can walk to work instead of the 3 hours daily on a bus I've been doing since Sept. (For locals, it's in Trinity Park).

Hereby passing on housema to them as needs it, especially Nutty who I know needs it, and Anne who is looking to buy.

Just got pre approved for a house/condo loan. Housema is appreciated.

Wrist is broken. Will br reading but not typing much, probably, for next several weeks...

I don't know if this is appropriate placement, but I didn't know where else to put it.

I got an email from an unknown-to-me address this morning: buffys999@hotmail.com, entitled something like, "Some questions". The file was 167Kb and included an attachment. I deleted it, because it smelled like a virus. On the off-chance a Buffista was trying to contact me, please let me know ahead of time. Thanks.

anti-hurty vibes to meara

This crazy job. It drives me nuts, it's occasionally very stressful, I have to deal with frustrating people, and coworkers are leaving.

So what do they do? They give me a 10% raise.

Now I feel guilty for goofing off on the board so much.

I have offers in hand for both the jobs I've been picking apart in Natter. New-old job isn't official official, but I've been told by someone with sufficient authority to rely upon that it's mine for the taking.

I'm leaning towards new-old, for reasons I'll detail in Natter once I'm caught up.

WOOHOO!

So, the agency I regeistered with today is faxing my resume to a CPA firm this afternoon for an interview possibility, and I have an interview tomorrow at 11 am with a company I emailed yesterday!

As much jabma as available would be highly appreciated.

I could use some jobma this way, please. Everything I'm applying for, I'm getting rejected, even things I'm eminently qualified for. I'm currently applying to work at my father's alma mater in Ohio - not where I wanted to move, but pretty enough country, I'd say.
