Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

Because books.

Today has been Mostly Sucky with intermittent periods of Meh. I'm tired of being a grownup.

If I had Oprah's money, I absolutely *would* do that. Zenkitty, glad to know it's not just me. I'm shocked they didn't offer a simple method to correct it, either, but sad to say, there are skinflints out there.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

OK. Airline ticket booked. Car to airport booked. Badge acquired. Need to pack and arrange for petsitter. And vacuum so sitter isn't horrified.

I'm surprisingly calm. I'm usually freaking out before a business trip. Well, there eas the screaming nightmare last night, so maybe I'm just sublimating my anxiety this time.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Being a grownup blows. I'm assaulted by pollen, my back hurts in an achey way that won't quite go away but won't get bad enough to justify begging the doctor for opiates, my house is horrifyingly filthy, and I eat too much sugar.

My neck (where it meets my shoulder on the right side) has been pinched for days. I wake up every morning and try to ease it out so I can move.

And I can keep the house tidy (the benefits of a little OCD!), but clean? Not so much. The dust alone is outrageous. I've given up on the cat hair.

My house was so clean when I was hiring cleaning people. I want them back! *sob* But I can't justify the expense, at least until I pay off these stupid credit cards. So my house is dusty and dirty because I am a lazy slob. I try to keep it clean, really. If for "try" you read "think about it a lot, really hard".

Oh my god, the pet hair. If we would sweep every day, it would be more or less under control (other than the furniture), but, well, we aren't going to sweep every day. So.

I can think about cleaning all day! I am really, really good at it.

ROOMBA. I'm regretting getting rid of mine.

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

I need to get out more, you guys.
