Suzi, patience for you.
(And also for me. Last email I got from mom was PET scan was yesterday with no conclusive results and surgery today as she was typing.)
One of my dad's aunts just apparently passed away from Pancreatic cancer. She married my grandmother's brother. I'm so sad that I did such a crap job keeping in touch that I didn't even know she was ailing.
Please, no more Buffista parents in surgery today, okay?
And tons of vibes to your father and to his surgeons, d.
Happy birthday, SA! Though I'm still all woe-betided that you won't be in SF on this trip. By the time you meet Matilda she's going to be a total small person, not a rosy little baby. Still adorable and lovable and yum, but not baby yum.
Okay, look what Steph did for my birthday
Awwww. We need pictures of you cutieheads too.
{{Buffista parents}} Health ~ma headed your way.
Yay...hmph.
under the proposal, the House Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education Subcommittee would receive approximately $9 billion more than the president requested. Forty programs that the president wants to eliminate or reduce would be restored and receive at least level funding. In addition, the House's proposal offers hope that a new mathematics education program would finally become a reality . . . With that said, the administration has warned that the president will veto any bill that calls for more funding for an agency than the White House has requested.
ETA: Note effective use of serial comma! Also, huh. I may dislike him, but doesn't normal usage call for President to be capitalized for the current one? Or is it not a proper noun because we refer to both current and former ones as presidents?

Only if you use his name (i.e. President Bush).
Juliana - we are still on for tonight. Now I REALLY need the escape. K-Bug is looking forward to seeing you too.
Yay! It's a press screening, so if you can get there around 6:45-7, awesome. I got more passes, so P-C is joining us, too. Huzzah!
Hair advice from the graying Bitches, please? The spiffy new haircut is really putting all my gray on vivid display and I'm feeling a desperate need to do something before my job interview next Wednesday. There's no room in the budget for a proper salon visit, which I know is the best option for dark hair with visible gray, so it's going to have to be something from the drugstore. Suggestions for any brands that do a dark brown or dark red that'll cover up the gray for more than a few days?

Do you want it perm or semi-perm? I've found Herbal Essences to be the nicest, but you might also be able to get away with the Freida Color Glazes, that don't dye at all but leave color on your hair.

Aw, I know! This is the first time I get to meet the Bean too, and she's all toddlery and stuff. I just have to live vicariously through pictures, and maybe next year do California again.
Awwww. We need pictures of you cutieheads too.
I have strong prescience that that may well occur tonight.
ION, it is raining like mad crazy here. I couldn't hear it over the air conditioner, but then a freaking Thor-sized thunderbolt rang throughout the hills and I was all WTF? And thus saw that the sky was falling.
