JZ, let me know if I can help at all.
It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
the last three CDs I bought were Cake, Sarolta Zalatnay and Social Distortion.
Hmm. Maybe I will attempt a mishmash. How do your tastes run in general? Also, have you been to the Museum of Jurassic Technology? It has been suggested I go there.

(without getting personal or specific, because it just seems like a bad idea to look even remotely drama-queeny on my very first day),
I don't think it's drama queeny to let them know that you are the sole supporter of a family of four. I think it's important for them to know that you are not being greedy, but doing this out of necessity.
EM will start actively job-hunting after the holidays, and as soon as she finds something Emmett will go back on her insurance.
I wouldn't count on that. You may not be able to make that change until the open enrollment period. EM could contribute to you, though.

Damn. I was going to suggest looking into WIC, but I bet they look at gross income, not net (that is, if you could feed your family without insurance, then you're not eligible). Is there ANY chance Emmett could qualify for Healthy Families? Or... argh. Dammit, a livable income for a family of 4 in Sacramento != a livable income in San Francisco!
I'm so sorry, JZ.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Also, have you been to the Museum of Jurassic Technology? It has been suggested I go there.Dude, never heard of, but looks cool (I love museums). I'm game for that while your here (schedule permitting of course... hate that caveat).

I have been to the Museum of Jurrasic Technology several times. It's one of my favorite places in the world to visit.

31 minutes to go...
...food running short. May have to eat the mules. Sherpa guides getting nervous...the cubicles around us are considered places of evil, or dark magicks and blood. It is only through offering more office kitchen perqs (water and stale xmas cookies) that I can keep them with me. Without them, I am surely lost...in all senses of the word....
