Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I suppose that if I came in here with some story about a homeless guy living in my house while I was away in Switzerland, it would get eye-rolls.

All the weird stuff happens to Gus, people would think. Monkey bites, etc..

Stories about grappling with your lefty-conscience about getting this dude out of your house, without disrespecting his situation, would draw comparisons.

There is guy who tried to go live in his old High School. He got the upgrade to Jail, where he gets to look 16 in a cage full of child-molesters.

My homesteader was less photogenic, perhaps a little lighter on the hygiene, and a lot older. I called The Man, and filled out forms. Lots and lots of forms.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Whenever I think of monkey bites and squatters, I will think of Gus.

Oh, dear, Gus. Umm.... You do collect the interesting stories, don't you?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I'll ask in here, as it's kinda sorta related to the pedometer thing. Since I cannot krav here, and I have grown weary of walking/running/biking in place in front of a tv, I have decided to run in circles on the very nice track at the gym. However, when I did this last night, my shins started hurting like hell after a couple laps. All this serves as a preface to my question: anyone have a good "I think I'm running wrong and want to do it right" website or somesuch?

Also, happy day-late Sloungeday, shrift

And, Betsy, I would totally pay a good amount of money for that service

There was a woman here in Georgia that happened to, Gus. The homeless person not only moved in while she was away for a month, but also redecorated.

Sorry, Gus. Not the best welcome home. At least there were no monkeys.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

a homeless guy living in my house while I was away in Switzerland,

OMGWTF?

Gus, I assume the guy was removed (at least I'm hoping) and no damage was done to Casa Gus.

I'm also making myself a note to get a long-term housesitter if we ever take an overseas job and don't sell our house.

Any chance you need different shoes? If the track surface is less yielding than whatever you were running/walking on in front of the tv, it could be your current shoes don't have enough support or whatever.
