Indeed.
Actually, it does suck, but not through the proper channel. I don't know enough about how vacuum cleaners work to figure out how to fix it.
I am debating going out and buying a new one.

As far as I know Meg is breaking up with the asshat.Waiting for confirmation before happy dance begins. Will there be a party? Shall we call I.C.E. and blow kazoo's as they cart him away? Or would that be tacky?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
It's weird because Meg is not communicating with me directly. Last night I got an email from Mom that Meg wanted to go to Oktoberfest with me and then later that she could pick me up if I wanted to go watch the (hallelujah!) Bears game at our brother's house.
So I emailed Mom to that effect and asked if she could please confirm or deny that a breakup is happening so that I can give my fingernails a rest. I figure if Meg wanted to talk to me directly she knows where to reach me.

We discovered this weekend by accident that she is calling everything in baltimore 'real'.
This reminds me of Calvin Trillin's pride when his 4-year-old daughter, raised in New York, said "Daddy, how come in Kansas City the bagels taste like just round bread?"

Oh, indirect communication in midst of stress is extra tough. I hope your sister talks to you soon, Laga, and that the situation is resolved in some positive way.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
My temp job did a massive overhaul of their computer system over the weekend. The two results this monday were: (1) I was blocked from B.org and all other forums type places. (I think more people can expect this with new upgrades.); (2) The calendaring software we use (in the Calendar Department) wasn't installed. So we couldn't do any work all day.
Fortunately my boss is cool and let me stay instead of sending me home without temp pay. And I worked on my book edits most of the day.
But I can't see B.org from work now.

Hey. New board.
But I can't see B.org from work now.
Tragedy! I hate when things get blocked that I'm used to seeing at work. Recently, the NYC Board of Ed blocked Gmail. It was devastating, at least at first.

((laga)) I hope she's kicking him to the curb. I also hope that you and Meg have your old relationship back soon.
