I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Yeah, I opened up the styrofoam, saw that there was no eggroll, and shouted, "INJUSTICE!"

Now tagless for your comfort.

One the first day of Fitzmas...

Just a little Ohio indictment appetizer.

and you know that it's a huge pain to go back. IF they give it to you, then your food will be cold by the time you get back, aside from the effort of going again . . .

Silence means security silence means approval

So I called about biodiesel heating oil today. Right now the "bio" part is $2.87, the "diesel" part is $2.89-$2.95, so we're looking at $2.90 a gallon to fill up the tank.

I thought that was great... until I discovered that regular ol' heating oil has fallen by 20 cents. It was running $2.90; now it's $2.70.

Hmm. Decisions, decisions. I'm leaning toward biodiesel.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I check craigslist everyday for a cheaper apartment. Or at least something bigger for what I'm paying now.

And some of the listings ask for references, which I get for me, but how the fuck do I get a reference for my cat?

Seriously. A pet reference?

I'm guessing they just want an assurance from your current landperson that the cat didn't trash the place.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Just get your current landlord to say the that the cat hasn't trashed the place.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Your vet, maybe?

I've seen a couple of listings where there is a "pet interview" as well.

After Ruby has been in the car, in her carrier, hauled into a strange place, and then have a complete stranger reach in to the carrier and try and touch her?

Oy.

Do cats really trash an apartment? Do they mean like, spraying?
