Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I went out to Eastern Standard again last night- I cannot resist their Pimms cocktails! We got the bone marrow; the raclette (baked up cheese with apple and other stuff); a salad that included a poached egg, pork bits, and sweetbreads; and the charcutierie plate that had a couple different pates, a headcheese, pork rillette, some crazy sausage, and housemade beef jerky.

I am full of meat and feel ready to travel with Anthony Bourdain.

They do have an offal of the day offering but I did not enquire.

Mostly lurking...

So, I had one kid today, and he left at 2:10. So much for working till 5:30! Not that I'm complaining. It's gorgeous outside, and I can use some free time, but it was kind of humorous.

Further proof that the economy is fucked up (as if we needed it). I was just denied for a loan with my mother co-signing for it. My mother with no debt and perfect credit. WTF?

ugh, sj. I'm so sorry.

I have a funny feeling I'm going to have to borrow about $6K at the end of the year to cover my tuition (I get refunded after the class is finished) and I'm nervous that I won't be able to get a loan!

I'm trying to think if it might make more sense to borrow it from a relative but I hate to ask in these times, even my more well off relatives.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

My former Wells cronies have informed me that they are giving money to no one. Absolutely no one. I'm sorry, sj.

I'm not sure the student loan industry is in quite the same predicament as the housing and banking industries, but it may depend on where you get your loan.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm glad I got my car loan a couple of months ago. My credit should be good, but I have no real collateral to put up, so I'm not sure that would matter these days.
