My middle brother and I just had a brief hard talk; his wife moved out two weeks ago and he's not at all hopeful for them in the long run. How can she not see what a total mensch he is and want to do anything on earth to make it work? Intellectually I know that he likely bears his own share of responsibility for it all, and that she's probably in a lot of pain too, but unintellectually I just want to protect him and make his life perfect. Nobody gets to hurt my little brother, dammit.
Oh I am so sorry to read this. Those we love hurting brings up bear mama in a lot of people. You are a wonderful sister.
See, Santa needs to bring you a Cylon hairless cat, just to make it all come together.
Heh. I'd have to not get it neutered/spayed, just so I could check out the glowy spine thing.
Note to self: do not cat sit for Tommyrot.
Well, I'm pretty sure my current cat is not a Cylon. I don't think the Cylon Plan includes running back and forth between rooms for no reason.
just so I could check out the glowy spine thing.
Not gonna touch that one.
tommyrot, I echo the others. Except for the Cylon thing.
JZ, I hope it all works out okay for your brother.
The single best advice I ever got from any help desk ever was the help desk guy who told me a few years ago that if I got a fax on my phone line, I could just forward it to my fax
It's the phone line on which we get customer calls. We'd have to have some way for the phone to auto-detect it is a fax call to forward it. Besides, eventually the muthabluffers have to learn the RIGHT FAX NUMBER.

Can you transfer a wrongway fax call to the fax machine?
I suppose I could transfer it, yeah. It didn't occur to me. But I'd rather hang up on the buggers until they learn the goddamned right number. :-) Besides, it's probably just more fax spam.
Yeah, I'm with you, Spidra. I'd be more likely to let 'em keep at it. Though I'm trying to make a conscious effort to be less self-sabotaging of my own mood that way.
I've gotten one of my chores for the weekend done. Still a long list, involving hellish shopping the weekend before xmas. I can fit in that, cleaning, hair dying and laundry and maybe a movie, right? Help me.
tommy, good luck once again. That sounds...disturbing. Glad you have a diagnosis, even if the dr can't pronounce it.
You know what? Dr. Zhivago is fucking depressing. I've seen this whole version before, and just have it on because...nothing else I want to watch and I felt like tv, and...why? WHY?!
