Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

I dunno. But it didn't seem broken when the heater repair guy was here... and in fact, it worked.

AND NOW. It's cold as hell in the fucking house.

Gud, I recommend also checking under the couch. That's where our stuff hides.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

WHY IS THE HEAT IN MY HOUSE BROKEN AGAIN!?
I'll send you a utility dude after we discover Why My Pilot Light Won't Stay Lit. Publicly we shall refer to this as Yay Thorlo Socks!

Gud, I hope your mission is successful.

Puppypile and a hot tea and...a horrible waste of water and that's very irresponsible in LA, but maybe if you just hide in the bathroom and crank the shower on hot....

Hm. I have an electric heater, if only Lori were available to tell me where she put it after she moved it last week.

I bought Thorlo socks today!

I bought some by accident two weeks ago, just grabbing some on my way to the checkout counter. Had major sticker shock when I bought them but was in a hurry so just figured I'd try them. Soooo nice.

Hey ita, I just saw on the news this guy who owns a store in socal kicked the shit out of a guy who tried to hold him up. He had a black belt in six different martial arts.

When I was a kid, there an attempted holdup in Mike Stone's Dojon. (Mike Stone was then world lightweight Karate Champion.) Would be hold-up artist apparently did not notice what kind of business he was entering, burst in the door shouting "This is a holdup", only to confront Mike Stone backed by eighteen of us. Would be hold-up artist blurted out "I ain't scared of you" and turned around and ran for his life.

OK, I'm having the weirdest cramps ever. I should have known. Today someone shared with me some of that target choxie chocolate. With chilies and cinnamon. And I liked it. More a surprise for the chocolate than anything else.

Huh. I just turned on the tv. NBC does these dorky DVD spotlights. What was this weeks? Serenity.

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

I remember a story a few years back ... let me google...bad day for the carjacker. Tangentially, I was told one of those people was also a kravver, which makes me like the story even more.

I was initiated into the cult by Kristin. Sticker shock was huuuuuuge when I caved and bought some, but the socks are just wow.

My feet have found god.
