FNL: Did Matt just say BFFs? Ha!
also,
hee, yay, Panthers! Aw. Landry. Too bad the rest of your story makes me want to cry and punch things.
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Believe it or not, I am charging up my old iPod that doesn't really work anymore, because it sits here in the desk in the basement, which will inevitably be where I am when the power goes out. I've used my iPod more than once as a light source.

Oh. Or, you know, not.
Yeah. I have the special syringe. I pin her with my legs and then begins the wrestling to hold her head still as she tries to climb me (her safety position is as high on me as she can get.)

Stay safe, Sue.
So am I the only for whom this week lasted 15 and a half months?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I wasn't even at work on Monday, and the week was really long!
Also, a selling point of my building was the fact that even the stairways have windows. As do all the rooms in my apartment. I've had to walk up and/or down pitch black stairways in power outages a couple of times before, and it's cuh-reepy.

One wall of the stairwell is all windows. Doesn't do shit when the interior lights are off after sunset. I've been unlocking my door by feel and warily making my way up the stairs. It ain't a great neighborhood, it's a serious secuity issue. I've bitched twice (this started due to a blackout) and still the asses in maintenance haven't fixed it. I even mentioned it to my best maintenance guy in passing, but I figure he just forgot. He's from Trinidad, I like just talking to him and he helped me kick their asses with the a/c.
