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

Because books.
Yikes, Vonnie. Be careful and stay safe. How horrible.

SuziQ just updated Facebook saying her surgery went well. So that's good news.

javachik, I just checked TaskRabbit out and it's in Seattle--I've bookmarked it!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Ack, Vonnie. Be safe.
I am overloaded with house and work stuff and it was so great to post "come pick up leftover paint and fluorescent tubes and take to appropriate disposal agency" and have someone DO IT immediately for a bit of cash. Now I am sitting here thinking of more Taskrabbity things. Maybe Hec could sign up with the service - it seems an easy way to make cash doing jobs you pick up as you wish. I plan to use it a lot.
HMOG. I am having my couch issue taken care of right now.

brenda, you've used it before, right? I either learned about TR here or on Twitter.
meara, you will love it!
I love that I put in a max amount that I'd be willing to spend for the task to be done, but that amount isn't shown to bidders. I put in a max of $60 for the paints task and someone did it for $25. The whole process is SO easy. And the taskrabbits are screened, etc, so I feel fine and safe using it. Certainly a lot safer than using Craiglist.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I wish Taskrabbit was here, too. There's a small business called "The Occasional Wife," but I haven't looked into whether they contract stuff out, or hire people, or only take what they can do.
OMG, the LA unemployment claim phone system is a nightmare. I went through at nine least levels of phone menus with no human, and if you hit "0" it just repeats the menu. So now I'm trying to get it straightened out from the NC side, where I was on hold for about 15 minutes but got a person. Death is not an option, bureaucratic style.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yikes, Vonnie! Stay safe.

Vonnie, stay safe!!!
