Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

Now tagless for your comfort.

How horrible would it be to have chili for breakfast?

Chili is a perfectly acceptable breakfast food to me.

Cindy, I'm sorry about the ice dams. We had them a while ago. It lead to a big leak and then to a new roof (thankfully paid for by the insurance company). Big pain in the ass, though.

Well STACK MY CATS and call me Cindy!!!

Frankenbuddha, I so must tag this! Please? Unless Cindy wants it.

{{vw bug}} I'm sorry about your friend.

the Department of Immigration's homepage may be found here: [link]. They do claim to have work visa info.

Thanks, billytea. At least it's a place to start!

ION, I still haven't tried playing the cat stacking game. I get addicted to those kinds of things very easily. I don't need something else to make me late for appointments and work because I have to play just one more game.

Must go make coffee.

I really need to be working on my paper. I'm not, though. Not really, at least. Every couple of minutes I flip over to it, add a couple of words, then come back to the Internet. I need to just buckle down and do it. I'd go to the coffee shop, where I have no Internet access, but it's a Saturday morning, so it's gonna be PACKED. Grrrr...I hate it when I do this.

What is even happening?

vw, was she ill for some time?

Cashmere, I was thinking about your roof when I was in the shower. I meant to ask if that was from ice dams. We have little leaks, all over, right now. We're trying to find a way to collect the water in the attic, to spare what we can of the ceilings, and walls. I'm going to call the man who owns our insurance agency on Monday, and talk to him--see what he has to say about the company through which he insures us.

Scott's seen a couple of TV news consumer segments, saying that after people submit claims on their homeowner's insurance, they either find their premiums rising or find themselves unisurable. Since the roof wasn't new in the first place, I want to make sure if we submit a claim (if it's even covered) that it's not going to screw us.

Well STACK MY CATS and call me Cindy!!!

You know I do, or rather, I totally would, but it feels funny to put my own name in my tag, so please do Cashmere (assuming it's okay with Frank), because right now, it's stuck in NaTLBSB land.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I submitted a minor shingling claim (only a section of the roof) after a bad storm a couple of years ago. I believe my premiums were not raised.

vw, was she ill for some time?

She was diagnosed with stage three pancreatic cancer in August. So, yeah, she was ill for a while.

She was so young, though. It just doesn't seem fair.
