Dude, my mom just called from Camarillo asking about the quake. Link?
Wash: I mean, I'm the one she swore to love, honor and obey. Mal: Listen... She swore to obey? Wash: Well, no, not...

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Damn. All the way from Baja. That's not good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yikes!

Dammit, I tried to fill out the "did you feel it?" questionnaire and it won't take my final submission. I am so not doing it again in another browser.

That's really not good.
Thanks for the link, ita. My ninja-fast shakemap finding skills have suffered since leaving SoCal, clearly.

But I've got to have a car to get Emmett back and forth. This is forcing our hand to look at pulling Matilda out of preschool and having me stay home with her to save the money. ($1,100/month)
But then I can't really job hunt because there's no place to put Matilda if I do get a job. She'd lose her spot at the preschool quickly (two year waitlist).
Hec, have you looked at ModestNeeds.org? They're kind of built for people who are getting by until one unexpected expense screws everything. (So car repairs turn up on the applications fairly regularly.)

Hec, have you looked at ModestNeeds.org?
I have not! But now I will - thank you.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
So sorry about the river of suck, Hec. Glad you found a comfrtable place to stay and regroup.
