Sunnydale's got too many demons and not enough retail outlets.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

However, the taxes. *gasp* Crazycakes. The suburb's taxes are close to twice what we're paying.

That's NYS for you.

Because books.

That's the problem here in Oswego County, too, Barb. You can get a house for $75,000, but the taxes are insane. And if you ask me, you don't get much but reliable snow removal for your money.

I'll go back to chanting "I can't wait to get out of here" now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Why oh why aren't hair cutters open on Sundays??

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Because you live in the boonies? My magical new barber which is too far away, I still whine and maintain, is totes open on Sunday.

Maybe my parents live in the boonies! But several places I've checked out near them are closed on Sundays, the only day of the week I'm reliably in their neighborhood.

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

There's really nothing better than the (for me)Monday morning commute for filling you with loathing of the peoples, is there?

One thing I've learned from getting demos from vendors: there is a whole lot of business jargon out there that's just goofy. I thought our specific jargon was bad, but we have jargon to describe things very few other people need to describe. This is making up new words when there are perfectly acceptable common terms.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Lots of ~ma for Bob and lisah!

I had a fantastic mango lassi in Portland, OR that was notable for being not very sweet. Mmm.

We were just bemoaning that on Sunday - DH drove all over the county looking for a barber. Full disclosure, I am in the boonies.

I can't decide if I'm willing to try the place my mother, grandmother, and aunt all go. At least it's cheap!

Coding and Sleeping

I've started cutting Leif's hair. It saves money and a trip to hair cutting place. The results seem fine for a basic boy haircut.

Not that I'm saying you should have your dad do your hair, Jesse.
