Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

OK. This is my first attempt at dipping my toes into the waters of 'ma'.
I have a job interview for a position at the Office of Workplace Relations (Industrial Relations) in exactly 12 hours time. Please direct some of the famed Buffista jobma downwards to the Southern hemisphere in 11-12 hours time, it would be very much appreciated.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Asking for jobma for approximately three hours hence. I'm interviewing for the position in Sydney I've been chasing, and I'm getting the interview jitters. (Of course, packing for San Diego doesn't really help on that score.)

Now tagless for your comfort.
Just got back from the doctor. I'm going to have a baby on April 9th.

Off to San Diego. Will be dark until Saturday. Have fun, everyone.

I'm getting the pig!
Hello from the dark life and times of me. How I've missed you all.
The Good News: I became a proud homeowner in July! Cute two bedroom with garage.
The Bad News: 1. My home computer died the day after new phone line was hooked up. 2. I was (so unexpectedly) laid off on Aug. 11th.
So, the current news is that my computer, so far, is alive and kicking again and although I have had six interviews for various Administrative Assistant positions in the last two weeks....no job offers as of yet.
I guess I need to look at this in a positive light....now I have a computer again and loads of time to catch up on Buffista reading!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
May I request a bit of -ma?
Galleys of "The Weaver & the Factory Maid" are now in the hands of reviewers and bookstore owners. If there's too much feedback in the nature of "this is great, but it's too unusual to really be called a 'mystery' novel" it could kill the rest of the series deal.
Ed Kaufman at M is for Mystery, on the basis of the PR and synopsis, is reading it this weekend and deciding whether he wants to host an "event" at MifM.
Requesting "love this book!" -ma, pretty please?

Any Buffistas out there interested in attending the Arab World fair this weekend in Milwaukee? Have tickets, would like to pig out on great food and ogle belly-dancers with friends.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I'm leaving in a few minutes for my OB appointment and our very first ultra-sound. Healthy!Baby-ma would be greatly appreciated.
I'm excited but extemely nervous as well.
