What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Actually, I feel really lousy -- headachey, exhausted, and stuffy-headed. I think I'ma take a nap. Because I can.
Then you will be sleep-debt-free as well.

Clinton getting the shaft -- especially while Obama received it for, basically, Not Being Bush -- is ludicrous.
So much this.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse, do you need boxes and/or packing materials?
I would not say no to either of those things, although the plan for tonight is to hit more stores for boxes and tape. (I'll pay for the tape.)

I was debtfree once. Now I have a mortgage, a car loan, and a new student loan. Ah well.
My total indebtedness is something less than $120K at this point, though... one thing about taking on a mortgage that I didn't expect is that it reset my level of OMGWTFDebt.

Even though I'm planning to spend my newly freed-up cash on a GIANT ROBOT WITH FLAMETHROWER HANDS TO DO MY BIDDING???

Okay, a little trepidation.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
I gleefully voted for Obama (though not in the primary), and I am thrilled he's our POTUS.
But I honestly cannot BELIEVE that he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize after doing...jack and shit.
Yeah, you'd think that the requirements for earning that honor might be a little more stringent than "hasn't antagonized every other government in the world while butchering the English language."
I'm a supporter and all, but he hasn't accomplished enough to earn a supermarket opening yet, much less a Nobel Peace Prize.

A mortgage is, in my mind, a different category of debt than consumer debt. I don't totally agree with people who say that buying a home is an investment, at least, not in the way that it's usually meant -- and I can explain why in more detail later, after I nap -- but it's still a different kind of debt than credit cards.
I also feel that way about student loans.
