We die horribly and painfully, you go to hell and I spend eternity in the arms of baby Jesus.

Housema would be appreciated - we fell in love with a house we can afford on paper, but that's about all we'll have left iffn we buy it - our contractor is being a pain in the arse about starting our addition, and well, I won't break the board telling the whole story. Just vibe at us, please, that we'll make the right choices, and finally have a home where we actually fit.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Diana update: The new liver is working properly so far, and she's scheduled to be moved to a standard hospital room today. The new kidney is a bit slower to start up, but apparently that's normal, and she still has partial function from the kidneys she was born with, so apparently that's not a worry yet. So the appropriate outlook seems to be guarded optimism.

I'll be going slightly grey in the weeks to come, as I'll be not sitting in front of a computer for 8 hours a day. In fact, I leave the office in a few minutes.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Good and Bad news:
One of my best friends who has been unemployed has been offered a job (YAY!).
It's in CA, Bay area (BOO!).
So anyway, I am not thrilled about losing her to the west coast, but thought I could be a supportive friend and post here for any leads on housing. SHe has said that she will most likely be looking in the mission area near the Cal train(?). If that makes sense, feel free to e me info on good realtors or whatnot. msbelle (at) earthlink (dot) net

Just heard from my Mom, she had a cardiac catheterization today and got great news! She is healthy as a horse and the bad signs that brought her into the hospital were due to nervousness and nothing else. Yay for healthy Ma ma!

Going dark for the weekend to visit the evil twin. Wish me Pirates!

Our wings are not tired
I'm going to be some shade or grey or black for the next week while I'm at a Playwrights conference in Ojai. I have web access up there, and my trusty Sidekick, but I don't know that I'll have muh spare time. I'll be getting my e-mail the whole time, and love to hear from folks, so please send me stuff at my profile addy if you feel so inclined. Hopefully I'll just be light grey, not totally dark.

Thrive to spite them
Nothing major, I'm going dark at least until Friday. Maybe later. I'm going to the beach! But I've been so quiet around the boards lately y'all probably won't notice.
