It never ceases to amaze me how paying bills just wipes through the money.
But, I am thankful for having enough money to pay them.
I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

Fay, the apartment sounds fantastic. Did you love Slings and Arrows? It sounds like. It gets even better on rewatch.
Emmett and I are off to see the Giants today. Catching our last little bit of summer before the school year starts.

Have fun at the game, Hec. What grade is Emmett going to be in this year?
I slept very well and very long last night. Today has consisted mostly of reading the NY Times, and in a bit Mom, Teacup Guy, and I are going to go out to enjoy the last of summer at the beach. Stepdad had to head back already so he can get to work tomorrow.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
I am looking forward to watching Slings and Arrows. I'm still not sure how I have missed out thus far.
My head should feel fuzzier than it does. But I'm thankful for the lack of brain ache.

FAAAAAYYYYY! Sounds wonderful. I love hearing updates.
Aimee, you crack me up. LOVE.
I am feeling very pissy because I just saw pictures of an ex with her new gf and it felt like a kick in the stomach. Bad enough to know they're together, but seeing photographs? OW.

Just got an email that my dad is heading down to Florida or Alabama (depending on Ernesto's storm track) tomorrow morning. He volunteers for the Red Cross and is an Emergency Vehicle Operator, so he's always on call when hurricane season starts, but this is the first time he's been called since Katrina last year. Fingers crossed that the storm does little to no damage and that he's back home soon and safely.

Our wings are not tired.
It looks like a good chance of Ernesto falling apart. Poor Cubans, but the storm should be over the island for about 24 hours and that may trash the storm. Monroe county (Key West) is already under mandatory evacuation, but that is mostly because it takes so long to get people out. I expect most people are ignoring the order.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Well, I'm still sending -ma your way, Laura, and you can't stop me.
Oh, ouch, meara. That's always a bit of a gutpunch, even under the best circumstances.
Also, to hell with pictures of Fay's new apt. I think we need a Class!Cam and a Daniel!Cam.

Have fun at the game, Hec. What grade is Emmett going to be in this year?
5th grade. It's his last year of elementary school. Off to the Middle School next year, where he'll overlap with his godsister. (She's two years older.)

Fay, it sounds great! Does the school have a list of likely rentals, or how do you go about finding a place? How is the cattery there? The one in KL was wonderful.
I'm a little sad for folks whose summer is ending and who are going back to school. I don't know why, as I always looked forward to school. Maybe I'm just feeling time zipping by and my own mortality.
Or maybe I'm just in a depressed morbid mood. I just turned some goth music off because it was too positive.
