I'm sorry, Shir. My family just had a year like that (well, on Thanksgiving it'll be a year) too.
It fucking sucks.

Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[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.

(((Shir))) I'm so sorry for all you are going through.
Mom called the bank and apparently if both mom and stepdad co-sign and I put another $1000 down, I'll probably be approved on Monday.

Thrive to spite them
The only thing worse than being home sick with a low grade fever but still kinda feeling well to do stuff (but knowing you should stay home) is being like that with NO CABLE or INTERNET!
From 4:30 pm yesterday until 3:30 today I was, well cut off and feeling really bored. Sure I have dvds! and sure I have books but it's not the same when that's your only choice.
I wanted to get caught up on stuff via streaming video, I wanted to play on Anarchy Online and Second Life, I wanted to watch mindless day time tv.
Instead I read and snoozed and I'm generally feeling better but think I still have a fever. I'm not sure.
The other day I was running 97.something at the doctor's office, then last night it got up to 99 then today it was hovering around 98. But I think it may have climbed a bit, but I could be all sweaty from going ot the grocery store.
Mom's out of town and I don't know where Dad is so I'm sick, without tv/internet, and having to take care of myself!
Lucky, my Internet Boyfriend (who will be here Thursday!!) read me some headlines from CNN last night and offered to do the same tonight if I was still w/out access. ACtually he offered to read me anything off the internet I wanted, which was sweet.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
All Alone? Not as effective as it was the first time. Six Feet Under's soundtrack, however, is still pretty damn good.
Right, time to collect my shit and nerves, and go on with this life thing. Al long as I'll have enough have clothes for funerals and enough tissues with me at all times, I should do fine.

A county in New York state discovered that the first group of absentee ballots sent out this week had the name "Barack Osama" on them.
The claim that it was a "typo" is, I guess, within the realm of possibilities.

And the local office of the DFL still has no Obama signs in stock for my front yard.

I invited people for dinner. Matt's b-day was yesterday.So today -- my usual lazy day, has been very busy . I have reached the point where everything I do must be narrated - in Julia Child's voice.
