Barb, you should not have to feel bad about asking for ~ma for your book's release day. It's your work. People ask here for ~ma for stuff at work all the time. If you are moved to ask for it, then you do not need to compare the importance of your request to the importance of any other request.
If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Tel Aviv city council member just emailed me about Hollaback Israel, asking to meet with me and talk about how to make the streets of Tel Aviv-Yafo safer to women. With laws and whatnot.
This goes further beyond what I thought it'll be.
That is AWESOME!

Now tagless for your comfort.
Shir, that's incredible!

Ann, that's a ferret.
If you are moved to ask for it, then you do not need to compare the importance of your request to the importance of any other request.
Exactly. If it's important to you, and you'd like some ~ma or other moral support, ask. It's one of the things we're about.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Shir, that is amazing! Good luck with the meeting. Have a list of clearly written ideas readyto go.

not your mom's socks.
for those with kids, either their own or someone else's, who are looking for gift-lists, this one looks interesting (reveal: a friend works there, I've been a judge for one of their categories): [link]

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Please tell me that everything being shut down and gridlocked around here due to the freakish weather isn't A Sign for my book release?
Everything being shut down and gridlocked around there means that it snowed. This happens when it snows. It'll melt, life (and books) will resume.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Shir, that is FANTASTIC. I am so proud of you.
Barb, ask for pimp-ma, of course! That's what Buffistas do, darling.
I've pimped it on Twitter, my Tumblr, my sister's bookstore, and requested it at my library for purchase. You should get a couple sales from that!!
Must finish coffee and then start dusting and sweeping. Tonight, the marination of the ham BEGINS!!! MWAHAHAHA!
Marinate, little piggy, stew in delicious apple juices...
