Cool, I've been lumped in with some darn good company.

At least the lobby has Internet Access.

I don't even need an outside enabler.

How come "pulchritude" means beautiful and looks so ugly?

I think part of her sentence should be having to fix the mess she left. Having to call companies up and say "Hi. I'm Felony Chick. I (gamble, have a glue problem, whatever) and I can't stay out of other people's things. So I have to be on hold and admit I'm not ChiKat." It could take her *forever* Yeah, Cindy, bucolic, definitely.

Great news, vw! Laura, I'm glad the surgery went well.

Office lunch thieves are the scum of the earth. May your thief be covered with pustules the size of a Volkswagen Beetle and may they suffer such horrible itching that they are constantly scratching and bursting them.

Hours still very turned around. I didn't sleep well last night either. When I woke up I almost walked around the house naked for a while but I decided on the off chance that a construction dude would come by that I'd put on a robe. Good thing because the landscaper came by. So I was at the front door talking to him (he wouldn't enter the house without his dog coming with him and I didn't want a dog in the house) in a purple terry cloth robe and polar fleece booties. Glamor am me.

Nationwide Insurance is selling identity theft insurance at a reasonable rate. I think we're going to buy some. I hope they do the crap work involving contacting the creditors.

I definitely wish an appropriate punishment on ChiKat's nemesis. Hopefully she'll remain stubborn and stupid enough to go through trial and get her ass handed to her. ChiKat, is there any way you can let the prosecution add the continued fallout to the damages? I think the amount of shit you're having to go through fixing your credit record should definitely be considered by judge and jury in coming up with a sentence.

It's like bucolic, that way.

You can always use "pastoral."

THE FOLLOWING LINK IS NOT WORK SAFE, OBVIOUSLY

I hesitate to bring up porn (and truly this is a sign of how much this thread has changed over the years), but I would be remiss if I did not point out Andrew Blake's Pin Ups 2 features Dita in a lot of fabulous costumes and mostly wicca on wicca action. Also a very nice Betty Page bit. And the one with the black strap-on. Also the bizarre high heel shoe-dildo Mmmmm. Anyway! It's very stylish and pretty too. Plus great costumes. That's why you should watch. The vintage corsets and seamed stockings.

I adore this. The most frustrating part of all this is navigating voice mail hell in order to get a Real Live Person to speak with. I'd love it if she had to do it.

I do know that all the creditors I've been talking to have said that they would be contacting the Chicago Police to add their complaint to my case. So, the longer we go with this, the more shit they have against her as the complaints come rolling in.

I'm tired of them passing the ball from Santa Ana to Denver and back again.

Aimee - feel free to e me if you wish. I can pin point some folks if needed. I haven't been here 15 years for nuttin.

Thanks, Suze, but I think I finally got it straightened out.

I appreciate the offer.

I want to ditch work, go to Santa Monica and read my Dean Koontz novel on the beach.

I just might.

Freaking therapist cancelled AGAIN. Now I won't see her until 5/11, unless I want a 9am appointment. Bah.
