Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

Yeah, I first went to Restoration Hardware because I love hardware stores, so I was initially disappointed, but I got over that and am now just disappointed that I can't actually afford anything they carry.

I've been avoiding Restoration Hardware. I'm weak and, well, so are my finances. I do, however, occasionally go through the architectural salvage store in my neighborhood. Amazing things ... some of which remind me of my grandparents' house.

That's the nice thing about RH. It's far enough into "oh hell no" range that I can moon over things without actually being at risk of succumbing.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Turned key, car would not start. Mechanic came down and took car away. I had a small nervous breakdown and need to stop sobbing before walking down to Enterprise to rent a car. I can't miss more work. I've spent all my vacation time.

I can't afford a new car. Please. Just please.

Tell me this is going to be okay.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

As of last night I am officially on a full news blackout to avoid 9/11 whiplash. Had to change my alarm this morning off of NPR. I must remember to flat out avoid any real-time tv.

ION, calorie counting continues to suck, but it IS affecting my choices and I did some stretching last night for the first time in well over a year, so that's good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It will be OK, Allyson.

Yep. I'm skimming very quickly around the internets as well.

I am only checking here, gmail, and retail sites. I will only be going to fb for games.

Ooh, I think I might enter this advice column contest the Washington Post is doing! You actually get paid if you win. [link]
