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.
More weird but good news!
In June, I'll be in Vegas for about 20 days working on scoring and assessing portfolios for National Board Certification. It's a ton of work, but I hope that it will help me prepare to start the National Board Process (picture 300 to 400 additional hours of work in a school year!!).
Going dark for a bit, length undertermined. Longer explanation here: Steph L. "Spike's Bitches 6: Darn your sinister attraction!" Apr 27, 2003 3:05:08 pm EDT
Oh, and I forgot to mention, at about the time I was being laid off on Friday, my aunt Katherine was having shoulder surgery. It had been scheduled two weeks before, but she caught a cold and it had to be rescheduled.
She had a problem with the morphine drip not working last night. They had to inject her, instead. Paradoxically, she might be released today.
Any healing Buffista vibes would be appreciated.
Since no one seems to be able to come up with a definition for loranite, I'm going dark over the next few days. (Actually, I'm at a conference until Wednesday).
I won't be able to do promo breakdowns until Thursday at the earliest. Please say the VCR prayer for me, as this hotel does not carry the UPN station.
I have been dark for a while and will continue to be so. My future father-in-law has malaria badly enough to be in a CCU. If you ever go to Zimbabwe, do not trust the guy at Walgreens to tell you what kind of anti-malarial stuff to take.
If anyone has helpful knowledge of malaria - how it is treated, what to expect, that sort of thing, I would appreciate the info. I haven't found much through Google and WebMD. Profile address good.
Healing vibes also gratefully accepted.
Haven't been posting here much lately, but I wanted to say that I just make an offer for a co-op in Brooklyn Heights (NY). Any spare housema you might have would be appreciated.
As I mentioned in the Firefly thread, I'm unloading a bunch of BtVS, Angel and Firefly merchandise on ebay. Rather than spamming every thread, I'll just post the link to the list of items. I'll be adding a new one every day or two, if anyone's interested:
ETA: Um...some Firefly fans might be highly interested in the third, and latest, item on that list. *sniff*
Thank you for your good Karma vibes, lovely people. WeeSisterJay returns to the loving bosom of her family tomorrow afternoon, hopefully SARS-free. She's gutted to be a rat leaving a sinking ship and will miss Beijing dreadfully, but we are all bloody relieved to have her in (comparative) safety once more. She can always go back later.
My DH has submitted a resume to a company in Florida. If he gets it, we can return to the Land of No Snow, near-by family, and (hopefully) less job suckage. Any spare jobma and anti-stress vibes are appreciated.
I have an interview next Wednesday afternoon for an actual real job that I'd vey much like to get. Any and all vibes appreciated. t /hyperventilate
