Yay, JZ!
I swear, one of these times, you're gonna wake up in a coma.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
My apartment is being invaded by ginormous dust bunnies, but I'm too lazy to do anything about it.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
YAY JZ!
Tom, a quick vacuum and it will all be over.
Mac's friend is finally here. YAY!
I have made mashed potatoes and turnip and the turnip has a somethingness that is not getting covered up with butter, sour cream, or garlic. ideas?
I need to bite the bullet and get all of the remaining Christmas ordered online today.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I've enlisted my robot underling to battle my dust bunnies, leaving me free to putter around on the interwebs.
Turnips are pretty sweet, msbelle, so my first instinct would be to add salt & pepper.

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
Good for you, JZ. And even aside from future money impact, doesn't it feel good to have done something about it all?

And YAY JZ for the debt consolidation!
Meanwhile, I've transferred the entire balance of one card onto another (with a 0% interest offer on balance transfers for something like 6 months) so instead of 2 medium-sized debts to pay off, I've got one pretty big one. And I cut the paid-off card in half so I can't use it again.
I think I'm going to talk DH into doing the same thing with our 2 shared cards. (Though we won't be cutting the Discover in half because it's useful for things like car rentals and airline tickets where we can use the included travel insurance.)
Unfortunately, our two biggest expenses are the mortgage and daycare, and not in that order. And there's fuckall we can do about either one. (Well, unless my boss continues to ramp up her insanometer and I quit in a fit of rage, which would take care of the daycare costs. Of course, we'd then be without health insurance and half our income...)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
YAY JZ!
I am glad the playdate finally got there, msbelle.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Most excellent, JZ!
Which reminds me, I should check to see if the Amazon-branded card I switched over to this summer is going to pay me more merchandise credits now that the month has turned over....

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
And even aside from future money impact, doesn't it feel good to have done something about it all?
So good. So crazy good.
I'm off now, to mail Gracie's clothes to Kat and see if Matilda and I can find anything for the Zmayhem stockings.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
We have snow! I'm thinking today is a good day to stay in.
I should spend my day with Quicken and iCal.
