Vortex, could you give the link for the map and any pertinent instructions to help that along, unless it's self-explanatory?

Birth, death, illness, new job, vacation...if it's happening to you and you want us to know about it, post it here. These threads are intended for announcements only. Want to offer sympathy or congratulations, or talk about anything? Take it to Natter. Any natter here will be deleted.
Juliebird (and others), you can set your location in your Set Profile area.
The link to the map is in the left-hand sidebar. (You weren't expecting it to be that easy, were you?)
Copied from FB, because I am so. damned. tired. I will catch up on ita's information from the last couple of days a little later today, but we just got home from 4 days in Iowa.

My father-in-law's memorial yesterday was lovely; well over 200 people came from 1-5 pm. Dan and I are both utterly exhausted but so, so appreciative of all the kind words proffered us by so many people.
It was a grueling last week for both of us...I'm so mentally exhausted and I got so sick on the drive up to IA Thursday, and still feel punky -- I don't know how to say how grateful I am for the support of family, both mine and Dan's, and of friends near and far.
Thank you all so much. You are loved.
(Also, some-interview-ma for 3 p.m. CST would be awesome. The reason we had to leave at zero dark thirty this morning is because I had to reschedule a phone interview for a potentially very exciting copyediting gig for a national corporation and adding them to my client list would be a coup. Thanks!)
For local peeps: we are selling ita's (gorgeous) furniture and all proceeds will go to the scholarship fund. Let me know if you are interested in anything. [link]
Eta: text me if you're interested, I won't have time to check here: 323.252.3851
Last minute work trip to NOLA. I'll be there next Wednesday and Thursday (2/4-2/5), and I'd love to meet up with anyone around on Wednesday evening. I've pinged smonster and Nora, but I'm not sure if anyone else is going to be in the area then. Discussion to happen in F2F if necessary.
edit: Spelling. More coffee is evidently necessary.
The Teacup family is expanding! Our little teacup (ltc) is due mid-August! We're beyond excited. I'm only posting here for now until I can get in touch with all of my relatives, so please no comments on other social media until I post there.
X-posty with FB:
As of this Friday, I will no longer be an employee of that company that makes Orphan Black and Doctor Who. After almost 11 years here, I am moving on to manage content operations for that company that sells books you can listen to and advertises on many podcasts.
I could use all of the "take my house back please"~ma that you have. My deed-in-lieu application is going in for approvals today, and I will have an answer in three to five business days. Please, please, let them say yes. Otherwise, I'm screwed.
