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

Gah, finally got through with Verizon. Now to do it again with Pepco. Gawd. No, if I am cancelling electric service on October 1st, I can't arrange a meter reading on October 12th! Gah. And I live in an apartment building. I have no earthly idea where the meters are. And I can't go read them myself. And I SO dont' trust you to just "guess" what the meter reading is, and charge me that way. BOO.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Trudy, how's your mom doing? And how are you?

Thanks for asking.

Mom is still in the hospital being a medical mystery. To treat the blood sugar madness they want to take her off the steroids which presumably caused it. To treat the asthma and pneumonia, however, they need to keep her on them. It's a fun little balancing act. Yesterday her sugar got as low as 265 (which is 200 pts below its max) so that is encouraging.

I am just tired. My cohorts on the show I'm teching are being remarkably kind about my spacyness.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

A grape fell off the bunch I was eating, rolled down my thigh, bounced off the edge of the open filing drawer, and landed in the trash can. It was Rube Goldberg-esque.

Trust my rage

Today I have:

sent my iPhone to a friend who will send it to Apple for repair. Cost me $37 because "Apple doesn't ship to Puerto Rico."

spent 1.5 hours on the phone with my insurance company where it looks like I have to pay for everything but the actual repair up front because "we don't have any contracts with body shops/rental car companies in Puerto Rico."

spent 1 hour on the phone with my two medical insurance companies who say they "may" pay for my coverage if I have the baby in New Mexico, but I'll have to pay the bill and then submit a claim because "we operate differently if your plan is based in Puerto Rico."

Just another day in which I detest living here...

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That's so bizarre. It's not like it's the at the ends of the earth.

Our wings are not tired.

I just keep pressing "0" until I talk to a person. I refuse to interact with them at all.

Vortex is me.
