we just have a Situation and I might not get to f2f anymore so...
Um, NO. There is no "might not." I don't care if we have to get you here by dogsled, your ass is going to be HERE come mid-May, and the entire rest of you had bloody well better come along for the ride. By hook or crook or last-minute save, you will be here, or I will personally drive out to Arizona and kick your father from there to Schenectady. Grr.
What JZ said. This F2F cannot happen without erika. Your dad needs a serious cluesticking, chica.
As fun as that could be for my whole family...I suppose he would be within his rights, although sometimes I wish he'd pass up his right to be a dick from time to time, but to him control=love. control+ money= big love. Never mind it makes me feel like a rock-throwing Palestinian...and I'm still pissed off about stuff working against me from '04, and...
But I'm not so sure about you all circling the wagons this time...my mother feels pretty bad in re Failure to Provide so having cash drop in on us might...compound something, and I have to not do that. You don't suppose she'd believe I sold ten stories in three months, do you? Damn, should have made nice with the drug dealers.
ETA: My mother will probably be able to do it; he still has The Feelings for her sometimes, but he still made her feel like she sucks over our various indebtednesses.
I need some advice. A little backstory first...
Our landlord has been working on the roof, which is right above our floor, for, oh, over a year. We have no idea what he's doing up there, but it's loud and taking forever. But, it also causes sawdust and other things, like, well yesterday, a 4-inch nail fall through. The area he's working on? Well, it's right above my desktop computer and desk. I've just been cleaning it up for the past year, but I'm really sick of it. And, actually not thrilled that 4-inch screw found it's place onto my keyboard.
I just heard him start working on the roof again. Do I go up there and try to talk to him about, or do I continue to let it go?
Oh, and so you have all of the information. I had just taken a painkiller when I heard him start to work on the roof. So, I'm probably not in my most effective communication place.
vw, at the very least, he should tell you when he's going to be up there so you can arrange to not be at your desk. And he should be paying to clean your apartment afterwards.
Erika--it's a long time between now and May--maybe folks could try to raise some benjamns to help out with the trip and we could see how things stand as the date gets closer.
Where is the F2F this year?
There's no way I can go, but I'm still curious.

I think I need this dress.
And maybe these shoes.

San Francisco, BAYBEE!
Where is the F2F this year?
Hint: This year's F2F? More gay.
True.
Just trying to prepare for the worst like a good Simon fan, right?
