Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Note that my house insurance gets held in escrow by my mortgage company, so it's possible that they could mispay it in some bizarre computing mishap.

This is their situation also. It's not one of the larger insurance companies. I just can't imagine how something like that would happen. Usually I'm pretty good at picking back over something so I can see exactly where the problem is, but here all I can see is insurance co. doesn't want to pay so they tell the poor person, who is unlikely to think they can afford an attorney, payment wasn't made (if I'm not mistaken, the whole, "Your payment went to another account." thing came up after mortgage co said check was cashed) then came up with another reason not to pay.

I am home, and am no worse for wear. Really, it's not that bad in the southern part of the city... it's a little bit slushy. I think the big worry is that there's a forecasted 4 to 8 possible inches, and it'll get really cold tonight, so ice galore. Just above C-bus, snows a-plenty.

Yay for Jessica and DH!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My understanding is that if the cheque is cashed, then they're on the hook. But that's lay law, worst of the worst.

Which reminds me--off to find out if my insurance admits I exist yet. Fuckers. I need pills.

Congratulations Jessica and DH!

I'm watching videos at the WKC website and I think I've decided that borzois are just oddlooking dogs.

I love those! They look like a cross between an afghan and a greyhound.

I think my favorite sighthound is the Deerhound. But I watched the wolfhound judging and picked the winner so -- go me.

Remember the lady with the trash car that was mentioned here yesterday? It turns out that she has two other trash-filled cars and a houseful of trash (so much that the front door won't close, seriously).

Thanks for the update. My coworker and I have been wondering about the deeper story.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I wanted a deerhound or a wolfhound for a long time. However, given the size of our house we had to settle for a dachshund (and a mini one at that).

Our wings are not tired.

Yay Jessica & Ethan! May the nesting commence.

Please be safe, all you ice and snow having peeps.

Can I leave early because it is totally too beautiful a day to not be at the beach? It's not right to be at a desk with A/C blowing when it's 80F, partly cloudy with a gentle breeze. Not fair!
