So, we could start calling Cash - "Broke" - maybe that would help.
Or maybe "Credit Check."
ION, this is depressing for USians....
The End of Summer Vacation
....Forget about two-week vacations in August. Many working people will be lucky to have a day-cation in July.
While cyclical factors like the spiking price of gasoline and the slumping job market have something to do with this, the real culprits are longstanding trends that have altered the structure of our economy. As a result, with each passing year, more Americans view something that used to be an entitlement—paid time off—as an increasingly unaffordable or unavailable luxury.
...
The upshot is that to be competitive, not just managers but employees in general often feel they can't afford to take much time off. A common complaint is that it's not worth going on vacation for more than two or three days because, with work piling up and hundreds of e-mails waiting to be opened, it is so maddeningly difficult to catch up after returning. According to a survey by the Conference Board, a business research organization, the proportion of Americans who said they would take a vacation over the next six months has fallen to a 30-year low of just 39 percent.
sarameg, perhaps you could say that you've lost weight because it MELTED OFF in your un-airconditioned apartment?
Last summer, sure. The past 24 hours? Eh.
Cat was cute. Scared, but cute. And I really can't have 3 cats in that space.
If you saw a license plate that read VA JJ 1, what would your first reaction be?
BAILEY!
sara - the key to your sentence is "that space". sing with me - open houses, open houses, open houses are real fun. I should visit open houses on the weekend, even one.
my niece just called and asked when Girlfriend pays me back if SHE could borrow that money until they get their stimulus check in July. *sigh*
Hey, since Girlfriend is probably never going to pay you back, you can say yes to this, right?

Virginia Jay Jay? the hell? Ohhhhhhhhh! (probably because of where I live)

Goddamn Grey's Anatomy for introducing such an annoying euphemism.
The. Word. Is. VAGINA.

Friend moving to Egypt's house going on market next week. ijs.

Was it GA? I somehow missed that. Probably because I've never seen the show.
Anyway, I'm sticking with my Ha!, because I always get a giggle when someone gets one past the "I know it when I see it" appropriateness filters at the DMV. It is possible that I am twelve.

I support that general sentiment as well as your Ha!
