Don't get me started on car insurance companies!
But Pix, this I can offer:
When an insurance company pulled shenanigans over a rental car (on which I had purchased the additional insurance, natch) accident...that was not my fault, I eventually went to the Ohio State Insurance Board.
After battling for more than 6 extremely stressful months, the entire affair was miraculously resolved in A DAY.
All hail the consumer protection branch of a state trade org.
Not sure if California has the same, but I can't imagine that they don't offer some sort of recourse on the state level.
Progressive (who, for the record, have been amazing throughout this whole process; I'd recommend them to anyone)
oh, good. This has been our insurance company since we moved here.
I liked having a hardware store where they know my name.
You may well again, this is like the smallest town masquerading as a city ever.

This is good to hear--I used to have them, and switched, but am contemplating going back because AllState has been a PITA (I haven't even had any claims!! And still!)
I need more damned spoons. I have just enough spoons to look like I have all the spoons I need, but I don't. I run out of spoons well before all the milk is gone. Why don't I have more spoons?
...Zen is that an actual spoon thing, or a disability-metaphor-spoons thing?
Cause if the former, I kept having that problem with forks. So I bought a dozen at Walmart for about $4. Now we run out of knives.
I am so fucking out of spoons. I actually looked at my flatware drawer that was also out of spoons and ugh. Need more spoons. And to run my dishwasher. But mostly the metaphorical spoons.
Spoons
Yeah, I run out of literal spoons a lot. I think because I use them to stir the coffee just the once, and then I leave it lying there. And then make another pot of coffee, and I have to get a fresh spoon for the sugar, which I then use to stir the coffee and then I leave it lying there.
Also, how is it that the cleaning is never actually done? I keep feeling like the house is right on the verge of being awesome and clean and done, but it never actually is. And tomorrow I leave (probably, more on that later) but our caravan buddy is sleeping over tonight, and we have a housesitter for the summer, so I need to wash linens in the morning. If I were just leaving for the summer, I'd be content with how the house is. But since someone's moving in, I want it to be habitable, but I just keep seeing more to do. But we leave at 7 in the morning. And it's habitable.
I need to chill.

Somewhere, I am being laughed at. I know this.

The world is cruel.
I use chopsticks to stir my coffee. I have a tall mug that barely fits a spoon, so I stir with some nice lacquered chopsticks that I got somewhere.
Warg. If I could punch insomnia in the face, I would.
