Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Trees are to stay vertical, dagnabbit! Glad the damage was only to things.

Calli, that was bizarre! No storm to knock it down or anything? I'm glad you were in the house at the time.

Also, that's one of the reasons I've stayed with State Farm forever, they are very, very good with claims. I've never had a problem with one being paid and the service that comes with is always fantastic. Of course, I suppose it can vary from agent to agent, but I've always had very good luck that way.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

There was a very mild thunderstorm last night. We've had far more intense ones without tree problems this summer, but I guess this tree had finally decided the limb wasn't working for it anymore, and needed to go.

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

I don't want to buy anything from this site, but I enjoy reading the item descriptions.

That's been my experience too, Sail. I've never really looked at other insurance rates since around '94 because I feel secure with the claims billing and customer service at the one I've had.

That is freaky, Calli, and makes me worry that I don't have the appropriate coverage. All this time without insurance for my apartment. I get to the bit about sizing and am intimidated.

Who do we write to in order to get more two letter words? Especially some with c? Unamerican has "ch" but that doesn't do me any good.

Working from home because I have to wrangle pain meds. Barely possible to do from the office.

All this time without insurance for my apartment.

Getitgetitgetit!!! It's really easy, fairly inexpensive (I think I paid around $12/month.) My friends had easily over $5K of electronics stolen, and no insurance.
