Crap. Got an email that our credit union is merging with the bank owned by DH's company. Somehow, I doubt this merger is going to benefit the membership.
Spike: At least give me Wesley's office since he's gone. Angel: He's not gone. He's on a leave of absence. Spike: Yeah, right. Boo-hoo. Thought he killed his bloody father. Try staking your mother when she's coming on to you! Harmony: Well…that explains a lot.

Sparky - This issue of Vegetarian Times had some interesting Thanksgiving recipes and there were some vegan recipes in there.

Wow, j, I read you with my obssession goggles...cause I read "Marinara" as "marijuana". It was a John Munch moment. I thought "Wow, SF really is different" I am a dumbass.

So what kind of sauce do YOU put on your marijuana?

Because books.
Marijuana sauce could make today better.

I have never used it with sour cream...suspect it of being white- girl like a grilled-cheese sandwich.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm skimming past the banana bread talk as I try to ignore the carrot cake calling my name from kitchen.
FWIW, if you're paying off a mortgage, it's really building equity, so in a sense a lot of that 50% is going into your net worth.
AND, don't you get a tax deduction on the payments? So the net cost to you is actually less than the check you write?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
YAY! Jesse also making me feel better.
I am starting to slide down mood hill into grumpy valley.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Mmm. Carrot cake.
I'm trying to ignore the upsetting rent/mortgage discussion, as I pay more than 50% of my salary on rent, and that's with taking a raise upon moving. And I'm trying to get into buying land and building and creating equity, but I just heard from my realtor today that in order to put in a septic system on perked land, I need to buy at least an acre. Which is what I wanted all that time ago, but gave up on as too expensive. I cannot understand for the life of me why property values in this area are so completely out of whack. They're priced like lots in freaking Hawaii for heaven's sake.
I love where I live. It's very pretty. But I'll be damned if I'm going to spend a half a million dollars on a small in-city lot and *not be in Hawaii*.
