Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Thrive to spite them

I was thinking more Kara has a new minion.

I have a feeling that's a pretty meaningless distinction in KaraWorld.

Shit. I just lost a post. And it was all moving and shit. Maybe I'll recreate it later. I don't have the energy right now.

And, it's a good thing Emily's really drunk, 'cause she doesn't mind me showing her my favorites

Bwah!

She was funny. She's very expressive and chatty when she's drunk. It's kind of fun.

Ok...recreated the post...

Ugh. I just had to ask my dad for money. I knew it was gonna come, since I no longer have the extra income from my job, but I was hoping it would hold off a bit.

But, I am grateful that I have people that I can go to. I was telling Emily about a heartbreaking thing I witnessed at the pharmacy last night, when I went to pick up my prednisone.

There was an youngish elderly couple there (clearly English was not their first language) trying to return about 10 medications. They didn’t have their receipt. They got very upset as the pharmacy assistant told them they could only get a store credit. The wife tried to explain, in very broken English, that they needed the cash to pay their rent, or they were going to get evicted. It looked like the medications were worth several hundred dollars.

It broke my heart. I wanted to go over and give them the money, so they could take the meds home. No one should have to choose between medications and rent. Unfortunately, I don’t have a couple extra hundred dollars to give to complete strangers.

I was telling Emily about the experience last night when she got home. I cried as I told it…not only because of the heartbreak of the situation, but because of how lucky I am. I have friends and family that make sure that I don’t have to make that decision…and on top of that, they make sure I get the things I want too, on top of my absolute needs. I am a very lucky person, and so very grateful. I know what I’ve got going on here. And it’s amazing and rare.

Gonna make it three in a row!

The critic on The Today Show just reviewed the movie I was gonna go see today. He thought the characters were boring. Now I can't decide if I still want to go. I still want to see it, but maybe it's more of a rental?

Oh, Megan, I'm so sorry to hear that. Peace to her, and to you and your DH and his father.
