OK, I'd laugh at it everytime I looked at it, but that's a damned cool piece of furniture. Hey, put tiny little drawers in something, and I love it.
Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

FUCK.
My car is being serviced as you all are typing. One of the parts didn't come in a (axle boot, so a sort of important part) and the other part (something to do with the gear cables) won't be in until Tuesday. I am supposed to pick up my car tomorrow AM (whatev) and then bring it back in for the transmission job. I want assurance that driving it in the meantime won't kill ME or the car.
And, FWIW, it'd be nice to have a car that will go into reverse, is all I'm saying.
In other news, the hateful shoes have been returned.
And Grace's vent has been DC'd so she is now vent free!

I inadvertently helped paint Cancer in a bad light today by making a suggestion to the new ED that New ED thought Cancer should have come up with. Oops.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Ugh on the car, Kat, but YAY for Grace.

Yeah, but she also has a relatively high fever today.... Gracie news is always kali like -- give one, take one.

Double Ugh, in that case.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
And Grace's vent has been DC'd so she is now vent free!
Oh, wonderful!
(But not about the fever. Give your mom a break, Grace!)
I spent all day at Spa Castle with my sister. It was glorious. I may have to move there.

Oh wow! That's great about Grace ventless, Kat.
The mechanic should offer you a loaner.

And the big caveat is that she is ventless now. So if something goes badly or if she struggles, she'll go back on.
So it's a victory, but a qualified one.
