And, I also think that donating my car to my local NPR station just seals it that I am old
Maybe, maybe not.
It does make you awesome though.
And we live to fight another day.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
I guess I can't tell the K. Kardashians apart. I only know who they are from talk soup anyways. Connie, Mike Rowe is enough reason to do a lot of things, but I also like(as in am obsessed by) "Countdown" and Rachel Maddow. I'd be lost without The Cable these days. I like Tim Gunn but I know my general lack of style would make him drink gin from the cat dish. But, you know, I wouldn't be surprised by that, at least.

I just tried to put an empty glass down on a shelf that is no longer there and stared in bemusement as it fell to the floor.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Oh, my, you'd think companies that just guzzled millions of US tax dollars would be a little nicer to the clients who kind of own them. I got one of those "OMG your car payment is late and we'll ruin your credit for life if you don't hock a kidney and pay it tonight!!!11!eleventy1" letters. Slight problem, though. I sold the car back to the dealer over a month ago. I called the financier to let them know who the new owner was so they could dun them, and the person who I dealt with was incredibly hateful and obstructionist. I had all the sales info ready for her, and she informed me that it wasn't her problem, and if my dad didn't get the money in there'd be hell to pay with his credit. I suggested that as Dad was dead his credit report was of little concern, so perhaps she'd like to talk to the people who actually have the car. "Well, if that's how you want to be," she replied. No, I want my dad to be alive and making payments himself. But as he's not, and as the dealer bought the car back, I'm not inclined to send her any money.
And now I kinda want to kick someone.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I'll kick them, too.
Go above and complain -- It sometimes works really well.

Our wings are not tired.
Calli, that is TRULY horrible. I'm sorry. I am here to help you kick; your choice who are what.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, Calli, that's just awful. I'm sorry you had to go through that.
