Gah, that's rough Gus. I'm sorry this landed on you.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Argh, Gus. How frustrating. And I'm sorry that Wisconsin is no better than California at dealing with lawbreakers who have other problems besides breaking the law. I knew CA had been all screwed up since Reagan dismantled our mental/psych care safety net, but I had a vague idea that the other states had learned from our bad example.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm sorry, Gus. You have been cast into a very difficult role in this little drama.
Pierre c. Shadeaux has predicted a long spring. I hope he's right.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, that was a nationwide phenomenon.
Ugh, Gus.
In much pettier news, I now realize that I will pay for my cockiness about making it to 30 without ever being a bridesmaid. I am currently scheduled to be one in June and in September. Bleh. Although, I can't think of who would be next, so that should mean it'll be a while....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
When I was in Madison (mid to late '80s) there was some controversy in Wisconsin - some people felt that since Wisconsin had a "better" welfare program than other states, disadvantaged folk from other states would come to Wisconsin to "take advantage" of it. So I guess I'm wondering outloud if Wisconsin's progressive history has pretty much bitten the dust in the last 15 years or so?

Gus, I'm sorry. My first instinct upon seeing your name over a post was to ass-caps a "welcome home!" to you, but now I'm just sorry it's been a rough coming-home.
[Edited to write JZ-with-exclamation-point, because I haven't posted with her in forever. So: JZ! Hope you're doing well.
If there's one thing in sitting here to write a paper when it's nearly tomorrow, it's posting with people I haven't posted with in forever.]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Urgh. He blighted California so badly during his governorship that I have trouble remembering which pestilences he inflicted just on us, and which he was able to successfully carry over to the other 49. On behalf of the entire state of California, I'm most awfully sorry.

Awesome.

Thanks! I feel much better.

I think I might need to find Jennifer Aniston's. Or shrift's shoe-scuff circle.
My shoe lament was genuine, although our circle tonight isn't so much a goddess circle as it is a "shrift, S is in town and she wants to hang out, and please please please god don't make me hang out with S all by myself!" guilt-trip circle.
But there'll be beer and enchiladas.
