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

Crap. I promised myself I would get a buncha stuff done earlier, but I ended up napping and now am just getting started with laundry.

Hm. What should I do with myself this weekend? I'm young, single, reasonably attractive, and I live in Los Angeles. I should be able to find something somewhat fun to do. And yet. Movies, mall, or sidewalk cafe. BORING.

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

Let me live in my little Dave's-okay bubble, will you? It'll burst soon enough, but I'm not ready.

Damn, I'm going to be working this weekend. I'd hoped people were going to get me stuff, so I put off writing until too late.

And I don't even have the stuff. Will have to make it up.

Which reminds me of the term work-wife or work-husband. Would anyone here say they have one?

I'd adjust the definition upthread a bit, but I had one. And then he got laid off. I miss him.

I think my weekend may involve undergarment shopping. HATE.

amych, the house I grew up in (first 16 years) was acquired when their landlord made a similar offer. It was a good decision for them. They never did get around to adding that second bathroom (but mainly I think because they knew not of life with more than one. I mean, my mom grew up with 5 siblings and one bathroom, right?!)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

MY tv just stayed on uninterrupted for 40 minutes and has now been doing the onoff on offon off onoff thing for over 10 MINUTES! without me doing anything. I have a funny feeling I may be buying a tv tomorrow.

Go give it a whack. Mine used to get spazzy upon being turned on, but it seems to have stopped that. Considering I bought it used 8 years ago....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wanna go to Best Buy, msb? I have this stupid $10 gift card in my wallet.

This is the answer I wanted! New problem. No clean clothes.

OK. You absolutely canNOT do laundry AND yoga before finishing the paper.

ita, I don't mean he's certifiable or anything. Just like, you know, that person you know that everyone says, "Man, he's nuts" about.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

msbelle, I'd pull the plug for a while -- no way it's turning itself on and off with no electric juice. It could be some kind of power fluctuation or something in the wall socket, after all.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Am now peering around the house looking at all the stuff I wanna make pretty. Should probably wait until we (a) decide whether we want to buy it and (b) figure out whether the bank will let us do so.
