"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

The only time I order pizza is when I'm painting. Without pizza and beer, painting is too awful to contemplate. Whoever is delivering the food has certainly seen worse than Scooby Doo PJ bottoms.

I have no idea how I am supposed to cut in the top of the wall in my stairwell

Sue, I read that as "cut a HOLE in the top of the wall" and was thinking "Why do you need a hole in the wall? And is it really safe to do that while precariously perched??" I'm glad, upon rereading, to see you merely risked getting paint everywhere. I hope.

I finally left my house shortly before 2pm to go to the doughnut store. Where they were out of most of the good doughnuts. CURSES! But they still had some. And a latte. Which was really the key.

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

And a latte. Which was really the key.

I looked blankly at that, thinking "No, Dawn's the key."

It's possible I need a lie-down.

Sue, if you order in, you don't have to change at all. Give the delivery man a thrill/giggle!

Trust me, it will be no thrill for him. I think I am still scarred by the time I was ordering fast food in my painting clothes (and totally covered in black paint) and the woman behind the counter told me that she thought I was homeless until she realized I had probably been painting.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's all different inside your house, Sue. At least, that's my hope.

I wonder what I have for dinner.

Pizza is ordered, and I'm compromising by changing the pants only. And putting on a bra.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Mac's uncle is a good egg and took him today after church despite a raging headache. That allowed me to buy groceries, put them away, halfway clean the kitchen, do a load of laundry and start in on some cooking for the coming week. They are on there way here now and I am going to try to sneak in some living room work.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Hey ita, you can come live with me. I won't charge you rent and I don't eat eggs any more.

Not so close to simi, of course.

And all the more pleasant for you.

Not that I work in Simi anymore, though. West LA it is. It'll be hard to give up the 2 mile commute, because I know it can't last forever.

You are kind to offer.

No eggs?

ita, I know all the short cuts from that neighborhood to UCLA. I swear.

I'm so happy about the new place, Allyson!
