Punishingly Intricate

if you get Amy's Frozen Foods in your local grocery, there isn't a miss amongst 'em.

I love her frozen enchiladas! But I do love the TJ's chicken and cheese tamales.

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

Trader Joe's frozen enchiladas are a big gluey mess. Nasty. Do not want!

Ack! Yes! I was very saddened.

Okay. Gotta go on a chocolate hunt.

Be strong people, be strong.

No, only evocatively nasty. Totally worksafe.

Art Crawl!!!

Well, that's a color that I love so whoo hoo. I suppose this means that we'll be able to purchase many things in that color?

totally.

I like it too - just trying to find the hex code, actually. But I can't remember when this started making news on the Times?

Now tagless for your comfort.

I just spent $1000 for furnace repairs. Which doesn't bother me so much because there is a warranty on the house. However, the problem was discovered during a regular furnace check and subsequent emergency call (after the furnace quit in subzero weather)--and I'll bet I'm going to have to fight tooth and nail to get the warranty company to pay this.

Their policy is to call them FIRST and then they dispatch one of their contractors to fix the problems. Only because we'd been doing regular maintenance (NOT covered) and that guy figured out the complex problem with the unit, we had them go ahead and fix it.

I called the warranty company and they did send their guy out--but he left because my guy figured out the problem after five hours of pulling individual parts out and testing them.

If they give me shit about this, I'm going to go ballistic.
