BURRELL!! Hi.

I like my job, but I kid you not, I redid 3 project timelines at least 3 times each today.

bad drivers in LA? Dude, you have a low threshhold for vengeance.

Actually, just the opposite. See my previous post about my difficulties trying to think of people upon whom I desire vengeance. I am admittedly scraping the bottom of the barrel. Lacking anyone I carry a burning hatred for in my heart, bad LA drivers make an easy target.

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

I know two people I'd characterise as evil. I can't think of appropriate vengeance, so I suppose I don't really want any.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm sorry, who is this guy I need to torture to death now? I missed this story, or I would have been on a plane to Ohio with a brick much sooner.

Dumbass was a complete fucker. Christopher was crossing the street with Owen in his stroller and the asswipe actually sped up (he was speeding anyway). When Christopher yelled and called him an asshole, he stopped the car, got out and came after them. Of course, Christopher just walked away--but they guy was obviously unhinged to attack a man with a baby. We did get the cops on him but they couldn't really do very much since there were no witnesses. But they scared him pretty good, according to the officer that followed up with us.

Frances is teaching Isaac how to draw. It's very funny to watch.

How's that working out for Isaac?

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

I know two people I'd characterise as evil. I can't think of appropriate vengeance, so I suppose I don't really want any.

Yeah, ditto. In any case, they brought their vengeance on themselves. They've lost friends, large swathes of their family think they're insane in the membrane, and they missed watching their daughter become a truly incredible woman. By taking on and conquering all the negativity, personal demons and trauma they saddled her with. And now they want a relationship with her again, but they'll never regain the trust they pissed on.

There really seems to be little for me to bother with.

But you aren't required to wish vengeance upon anyone. Unless of course you felt obliged to provide David with some amusement.

Cash, some people have issues. Once some guy cursed me out for crossing the street while visibly pregnant. It seems I was interfering with his right to run the red light.

this isn't really in answer to David's question, but on most days, I think about half the people I come in contact with deserve to be zapped with a stun gun.

(that's for sara).

Awww! How sweet. In a year or two, she'll be playing school and teaching him how to read, like my sister did when she started kindergarten. I partially credit her with my knowing how to read before I started school.
