My shoes have shiny red Chinese dragons on them. This makes me happy.
t sad My shoes are without dragons.
But my wall calendar has an echidna! I will accept this as a fair and reasonable alternative.
Buckle up, kids! Daddy's puttin' the hammer down.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
ChiKat, I ADORE circle skirts, but they usually aren't flattering on me. I am guessing it might be the same with you.

Ok, credit reporting agencies have been called and I've emailed my bank because I couldn't figure out what else to do. They are good about getting back to me though.
Ok, am I crazy? I feel like I've been all "don't worry, be happy" today, but I would never ever go this far just because I threw out a bunch of possilbly stealable info. I guess I'd wait until I had some notion that someone might have actually stolen it. I had a fraud alert about seven years back, when someone actually did fuck with my SSN, and it's still causing me hassle. I don't know, I guess I'd rather deal with things when and if they arise rather than cause myself problems in advance.
Don't suppose anyone remembers when it was that we had no heat?
Way too soon for you to have no heat again?

Emily - looks like your heat was still out on Nov. 27th and back on Nov. 28th. Not sure when it went out but I searched "no heat" in Bitches 27 and found a few posts from vw. Hope that helps.
You rock! Thank you.
Oh, damn. That falls in this billing period, which means I really ought to complain to NStar about how freaking high our gas bill is given that we had no damn heat for three days. I was hoping I wouldn't have to do that, since there's almost no chance it'll work.

Except... honestly, what are they going to say? The bill is based on the meter. I guess I just feel like we should get some consideration for having been freezing cold for those days.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Dunno but I have to call the utility people too. My bill is about five times what it should be. Unless the cats are throwing raves since I wasn't home for a lot of the month.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Well, natural gas prices are way up this winter.

That ranks up in my top two or three favorite commercials ever.
It's funny how it has almost nothing to do with the service being advertised....

Well, natural gas prices are way up this winter.True. I have the added knowledge, on my bill, that I actually haven't successfully lit the pilot light on my heater yet either. Though I don't think this will help Emily and vw. And it has significantly increased what I spend on candles because I am just people-hating enough not to have called them out for the pilot light issue yet and a few candles a night sort of warms the room up. Or maybe it just looks warmer.
