I just get such a cackle out of the one who sits with the family during the "robbery." He's going, "Oh, gee. Looks like he's just trashing all your precious belongings. How do you feeeeeeel?"

And the guy who does the "robbery," afterward? Acting all scared to meet the people? And going, hey, you agreed to this, remember? Can't touch me!

Empress, I find something very meta in baby issues trumping being able to go to the funeral. It's all family.

Aimee, feel better (in all possible ways).

Gud, you should neither deny yourself food nor beat yourself up because of the financial situation. I haven't been able to read regularly lately, so this might have been addressed, but you do know that you're allowed to be angry at your wife for letting the bills go unpaid (even if she's having depression issues)? That anger, frustration, etc., would all be absolutely valid emotional responses? That manifesting these emotional responses in the denial of food for yourself isn't healthy?

I watched one Episode of "to catch a thief" because Tivo taped it. Very bizzare- I wasn't sure how serious I was supposed to take it. I mean all sequrity systems have holes. and definatley most home systems. The only idea behind what I have is to slow them down and I am working on suff that makes noise.

The Circle...The Circle of Life...

Ya wouldn't know I went to The Lion King this month would you?

And Aimee, let me second (probably closer to tenth) everyone else. Your great-grandmother was more blessed to have your presence in her Life. Hope you're feeling much (physically & emotionally) better very soon.

I forgot - I am posting because I finished redoing my resume. So I can apply for a job I don't want. But that was the easy part. Because after really thinking about it, The biggest reason I don't want this job is because I don't trust the upper management to deal honestly with me. That really means i should be looking. So a redone resumee means I can.

Onto the suplemental questionaire.

THanks for all your love support, My Bitches.

I'ma go find a Coke and a quiche.

A lot of the security stuff is common sense, like, hello! lock your doors and windows! If you're a jewelry dealer, don't leave diamonds and expensive watches in suitcases. Don't assume your dog will scare off intruders. Don't leave your car keys in the car. Don't leave crowbars and cement blocks and shovels and other stuff that can be used to break in your house, accessible in your yard.

And then don't be shocked when an actor doing what you agreed to let him do, breaks in and makes a mess of your stuff and figures out your secret hiding place under the bed.

I think it is to wake people up that there are theives who make their living exploiting the giant vulnerabilities in one's home security.

I really want a charlie bar for my back slider, and window sensor alarms for the first floor windows and a couple second floor windows. Would probably cost a couple hundered bucks, and it would make my house an more unattractive target.

Quiche and Coke acheived!! Yay!
