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

What are your first and second favorite apple pies?

Mr Kipling and the Apple Pan pie, in no particular order.

Okay, enough timewasting. Up and out of here.

BTW, I have a long history of tolerating jackasses (usually when they've been a jackass to me, though), but I do treat people coldly when they do something like that. Then it's their call to decide if cold me is worth hanging out with anymore. No skin off my nose at that point--it clearly depends on how jackassy they were to me.

Which reminds me, the last guy that was a real prick to me, I just ended up wanting people to understand my side of the story, but wasn't bothered by anyone still hanging out with him or shit.

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

Lauren, in the middle of dinner, looked at me, looked at Woods, and asked me "why I was hanging with the Geritol set?" I am STILL hurt, years later, that my dear friend M didn't cut Lauren right out of her life for that incredibly rude and mean comment. Nope, they're still friends. And my stomach hurts every time I see Lauren comment on any of M's posts on Facebook.

Yep, I've had that experience, more or less.

Why did I decide my project for today was entering all my credit card purchases into iBank? It turns out I don't want to do this at all!

The Granny Smith apple, brown-sugar pie that I make and the apple-dried cherry pie that my upstairs neighbor makes.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Jessica,

but it will be worth it after you finish.

Said by the woman who updated ibank and has not inputted all her info yet and was supposed to be June 1.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Of 2011.

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

I've been neglecting the credit card portions of my financial records (in the sense of tracking the transactions, I've been paying the bills faithfully) for ages. I think it's in the "Due Over a Year Ago" section of my to do list. I was hoping I could just download stuff into iBank because we are all living in the future and these things happen practically by magic, right? Not that I have even tried to do that.

OTOH, since iBank knows I've been making payments to my cards but doesn't know about the charges, it thinks I have way more net worth than I actually do, which is kind of nice in a self-delusional way.

That's how I do my checking/savings accounts, but since I need to enter the categories by hand anyway and I have the paper statements in front of me, this is almost as fast.

I'm three months more caught up than my last post! Unfortunately, I'm also missing a statement which is going to make me look way more paid off than I actually am.

Oh crap, I just realized this PTA picnic in an hour is a pot-luck. Quick, what can I make with a can of tomatoes, 3 zucchini, and half a head of escarole? Maybe I'll buy some cookies on the way there.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I don't know iBank, but what is better about it than Mint? Not that I don't have my Mint problems, but I don't have to enter in transactions myself.
