Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I don't think I am observing Pi Day this year. Unless eating a tortilla as part of my lunch counts (because it is round and therefore has a circumference and diameter...)

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

My mom had a hysterectomy scheduled for this morning, and my dad promised he would call when she was out of surgery, but it's nearly 3pm on the East Coast and still no call. And my dad doesn't have a cell phone, and my mom does but never uses it. I'm going to assume everything is fine because I have no particular reason to assume otherwise, but damn, I would really like to get that phone call already.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

that is not just WOE, but WOAH! How could anyone not give you Djimon Hounsou OR pie?

When come back, bring Djimon

I'm just saying, if I have a choice between him or pie, well...

You might try calling the hospital, Kate. They could tell you if she's been moved to a room.

And once again, posting makes it happen! Just got the call from my dad, and he says everything went well. Phew.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Phew!!

Waiting for news is hard, Kate. Health~ma to your ma. Eta: whew!

I'm out of stuff to do again. The person who said she'd have something for me soon isn't at her desk and there don't seem to be things that just always need doing for me to work on during these down times.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Kate, I've been there recently. Even when you fully expect everything to be fine the wait can be a little nerve wracking.

Definitely. Thanks, everyone.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Great news, Kate!

And once again, posting makes it happen!

If that's so....

Where's my new job? And where's the missing equity on the house that would allow me to sell it without taking a bath?

C'mon, work your magic!
