What Consuela said, though I still want to crank call your landlady or something like that.

Consuela, YAY, and no need to bring anything.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Word. I just went and packed up some more books (three milk crates full to go to the used bookstore) and moved my dresser over in front of the window. Which means it's blocking off a lot of light, but those are really the options in that room -- you can either have a lot of light, or you can have somewhere to put your stuff, but not both. In fact, I think this way is probably worse, but I'll be damned if I didn't do what she asked, right?

Of course, what with getting stuff out of the way so I could move the dresser, the room's a total mess again. I hope they don't want to bring anyone over too early tomorrow.

Wow, my sister just bought a new house. I din't even know she was looking. My baby sister has a 4 BR/2 BA house. Wacky.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

How is The Wire a movie thing?

My baby sister has a 4 BR/2 BA house.

... and a mortgage. What was it? Forty years? 50?

Gawd, how I hate banks, what with the way they enslave us.

She's been having a mortgage, I don't know the terms, or what changes the new place will make to them.

Sorry to hear that your baby sister came down with a mortgage. I hope she gets better, soon.

Emily, I'd honestly just think fuck off to the landlady. People live there. Provided there aren't things growing where they shouldn't, she should just bug off.

Ahhrg. T just called to ask if I could help her do her hair. Honestly? I've never done braids or parted or anything to black hair. I'm pretty convinced I'd fuck it up so I told her I didn't know how (they've got some thing they are going to tomorrow and frankly, it looks nice tonight.) I felt bad. But really, I don't know anything about care for anything other that pretty straight hair except some of my coworkers talking about how brittle their hair is and last thing I want to do is bald the child! Help?

I have a suspicion she's starved for female attention. I'm happy to give it, but I've got to ease some limits in.

Ok, we are literally braiding hair.I'm off.

Gus, it's clear you don't like most of the topics of the conversations we have. What would you like to talk about?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Wow, I have never seen the local sushi place as packed as it was tonight. They had no room left at the bar for even one person, so gave me a table in the smoking section (which I then offered half of to a birthday party group). I guess the close quarters made everyone feel more social—there was a lot more inter-table visiting among strangers than is the norm. It was a fun vibe actually, like tables on a cruise or in a hostel.
