Kristin, that sounds very annoying. I hope it is over soon.
Someone remind me that going to Maine will be fun. I'm not feeling it right now.
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Do *they* know that is not entirely accurate? Hell, it's only barely accurate. Dude, your tires are the only thing on your car that has contact with the road. They are slightly more important than just in stopping and turning unless you plan to be driving a damned unguided missile. And I don't know how you'd get that moving without tires, either.
Which is good, because if she did she would drive one.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Dude, guided missiles only. Speed is nothing without control.

My bad.
Does it make you even a little happy that the earth's rotation means that you're always going about a thousand miles per hour?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Maine will be fun, sj! DH was just telling me that a friend of his is going to Maine in October and how great that will be.

Thanks -t. I know complaining about a vacation is lame. Things are hard for me right now.

I'm sorry things are hard. I am much more in favor of things being easy.
I don't think complaining about a vacation is lame, though. Planning vacations can be stressy - I bailed on a major portion of my last one because it was just too much trouble and that was so the right call.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I get it, sj. Sometimes there is just too much work before fun. Grit your teeth, the fun will happen.

The work for this one is just not happening. If we don't have everything we need, we'll buy it in Maine. My body isn't cooperating and we're only going for 2 days.

Maine will be fun. Maine is always fun.
Student loans are confusing. I got a form informing me that I had received my loan money, but I never actually got the check. I emailed the financial aid office, and they said that I got it as an electronic transfer, not as a paper check. I replied that no, I didn't get it in either form, and they had never asked me for my bank account info so that they could send it electronically.
