I AM SO FUCKING PISSED.

No one has even entered my apartment.

I think I'm going to have to request someone accompany me back to my apartment tomorrow morning so I can FUCKING SUPERVISE THEM.

You know, they may have a valid reason. But you FUCKING DON'T TELL ME "TODAY" TWO DAYS IN A ROW and then don't deliver. Don't lie to me. That's the one thing I will not accept. Especially after knowing there was a problem for more than a week.

They are going to learn. And I'm calling corporate.

In the meantime, I'm wasting their water by filling the tub and blowing air across it. Fuck them.

Good for you, sara. I can't believe...well, no, I can believe. I am so angry on your behalf.

At least the plumber came as promised today, and evidently did fix all the things he was supposed to fix -- here's hoping it all works properly!

Who was it here that misplaced their their rightful thunderstorms? Somerville seems to be getting some in short order. I'm out on the patio enjoying the wild wind and warm (84) but not humid temperature, and revelling in a comfortably safe way.

And if the damn cat runs outside through my legs again when I go back in the house, he's going to have to stay out through the thunderboomer, as is only right.

Huh, just checked the weather radar map at Weather Underground, which shows major lightning strikes, and the NYC area looks like it's under serious bombardment!

Weird -- I haven't heard any thunder at all!

I'm going to give some quiet thanks for all the wonderful, cool-as-hell and objective teachers I had from k-12*. Even when I started expressing my opinions early (hard to believe, right?) and these opinions differed from my teachers' they taught me to reason and debate issues with respect.

• with the exception of the sexist twit who taught my advanced algebra class who thought that girls were no good at math and tended to favor the boys. But, hey, screw him. I know lots of women actuaries now that could run circles around his tiny pea-sized brain.

"Yemen" still makes me laugh really hard because of Chandler Bing. Gee, what did the Osmond daughters post? Was it really raunchy, or raunchy-for-Osmonds? Because I have a boring life but I suspect it's still RFO. We have to fight the Dominionists, imo.

Yeah. And it smells gross outside, too, not good.

I still haven't installed the a/c in my apartment. So hot.

Who's watching the Spelling Bee?
