Make it all work out ~ma please! My agent is typing up an offer.

(It's in your own best interests, as I intend an open door Buffista policy.)

My (86 year old!!!) mom is doing better since her heart surgery a year ago.

Here's a pic of her from yesterday at the doctor's office. Taken by my Niece Michelle.

Asking for interview ~ma for a job interview at 2PM Wednesday.

I was told via email at 5:15 PM tonight that I did not get the job.

Popping in to ask for some ~ma. Daisy Jane's cousin Kara, friend to me and Nora, all-around kickass chick, is in the ER with what we hope are just side effects of a new drug regimen for her melanoma. Please and thank you very much.

eta please turn that ~ma up to 11. She has a hemorrhaging brain lesion. Her sister, mom, and partner are all there.

x-posting from fb: My friend Kara is in surgery to remove the bleeding brain tumor. Please continue to send prayers, vibes, good thoughts, voodoo, invocations of Neil Degrasse Tyson, white light, or just shake your fist at the heavens and declaim "F*ck cancer!"

And of course, my Buffistas, all forms of ~ma are welcomed.

eta: 11:00 am: Kara UPDATE: She is out of surgery, the report is excellent; Dr says she is "extremely stable" but she can't go to Super Sunday.....Also, Dr wants her to stay very calm for today He says she's had enough excitement in the last 35 hours. More updates will be coming here, keep checking back & we will be posting more about how to help & things needed. the entire family CANNOT thank you ALL enough for the outpouring of support you have all shown.

In case you've missed it, my vacation in the U.S. AKA trying to see as many of you as possible will take place next month, and being discussed in F2F (the announcement, including details, is here: Shir "F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us" Apr 10, 2014 10:30:58 am PDT )

For questions, comments, and if you need the link/invitation to the infamous spreadsheet that helps me to decide where to go, just say so (in the F2F thread or directly to my profile addy).

Thank you, all. I'm equally excited and grateful for the chance to finally see you and anxious to have very little time to plan it properly.

I've got a new piece up at Hilobrow on the French film director, Georges Franju.

As ever, Mr. Phelps, if you find it to your liking, I would appreciate any Likes or Retweets.

Health~ma please. My dad is in the ER with a possible heart attack and severe GI distress. We're waiting on bloodwork now and he's headed for a CT scan in an hour.
