Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I continue to thank god for my awesome super.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

They won't get around to it? The hell?

It doesn't really make sense, as if the person who calls changes the nature of the ceiling collapse.

Damn, bon. Did any of your stuff sustain damage from falling bits?

My coffee pot (which is replaceable), as far as I can tell. I think more of the ceiling might fall but there's not much it can hit.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, they just don't wanna do it themselves, bon. You should be all up in their faces, my *ceiling* has fallen in!

ION, this headline writer just couldn't resist...

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, ita, I was hoping this would be a pain-free vacation for you. Nuts.

I am just totally boggled that bon bon's super and landlord and falling all over themselves to fix the CAVED IN CEILING. Madness!

At least you'll be in Jamaica, ita...?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

It doesn't really make sense, as if the person who calls changes the nature of the ceiling collapse.

Clients' voices are always louder than employees'. (Which isn't to say it makes sense, just that it's not surprising.)

Good luck getting it fixed, though! I don't know what I'd do if I couldn't use my kitchen.

ita, I hope the trip improves.

bon, I've done without workable a/c (um, last year? my bills were 2x what they are now. I'm using 1/2 the power to actually keep it MUCH cooler now,) no-hot-water and bitched to heaven to get that fixed, and frankly? Go medieval on their asses. That's unliveable. When my friend's bathroom ceiling collapsed, they were there in 12 hours. And this in lazy-ass slumlord b'more.

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

On Dirty Sexy Money what are the chances that one of the five siblings is peter krause's sibling? This seems to be a "thing" this season...

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

I think flying is at risk of becoming a much more expensive proposition. I'm at the gate, and there's light and there are people, and my only available painkiller makes me bitchy. Bitchier. Whatever. And of course this is not one of the terminals that believes people should be comfy.

At least I'll have a day to recover before I see my father. I refuse to finish calculating how many days this means away from my normal support structure and the ER.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Blargh. That's too bad. Hope you get rest, and your destination puts you at ease and away from triggers.
