[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Happy Birthday, Aimee!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That's a bummer, Nora. But you'd need that A/C fixed sometime, right? And nothing's gone wrong on the car, yet. I understand the frustration and the worry, but if you're going to worry about it now will you be able to not worry aout it later?

Have I mentioned that I love the name Pookah? Because I do. Pookah Pookah Pookah! Sit, Pookah, sit - good dog. Fun to say.

sj! Nice to see you this morning. I have work to do, tell me to go do it.

I would say stay and play with us, but I actually have to go call my therapist. He is going to do a phone session with me so I don't have to kill anyone this week.

{{{Nora}}} I think car repair people should have to eat the cost when they don't call first to see if you want repairs done.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Happy Birthday Aimee!

That is good news about StE. That is much faster than are friend C. I'm hopeful.

ans the only thing I can say Nora is that it will make the car more resellable. but if you need meto smack someone , I will.

Art Crawl!!!

Nora! I can't believe that they did the job without consulting you!

Because I would so do w/o the AC - of course, I am a carless woman who lives in an apartment w/o AC.

Oh, it's the car A/C? I tak back some of my pollyannaness - for some reason I was thinking it was the house A/C and the car issue was separate. My bad.

I think car repair people should have to eat the cost when they don't call first to see if you want repairs done.

I believe this is actually THE LAW.

But you'd need that A/C fixed sometime, right? And nothing's gone wrong on the car, yet.

I don't know. We have a good chance of buying another car if something huge goes wrong on this one. Also, I really think of AC as a luxury. But Tom's the one who drives the car and deals with the mechanic so I really don't have much of a say in this.

It's just my same old impotent rage at feeling like I'm being screwed.

Really? I'm owed a lot of back money then. Now I always say about twenty times, "You're going to call before you do anything, right?"

there's some sort of consumer protection I think. Maybe I'm on crack though.

Mostly lurking...

Oh, yeah. There is TOTALLY consumer protection like that. You go after them, Nora! That's awful.
