Owning a house or not has very little impact on overall grown-up-ness either way, I think.
That was a helluva race. Thanks for the link, sumi!

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

-t probably not. I'm just giving up on all of it.
And we'll move out in 5 weeks.

I can understand hating everything, that sounds rough.

Kat,
I am completely empathetic and understanding of your position.

Oh, Kat, I'm sorry. That all just sucks.
Bodemeister's jockey is Mike Smith, arguably the most experienced jockey out there. So for I'll Have Another's jockey to have been able to set up his horse so perfectly was a real feat.

To add:
I am understanding of Kat's position because I am completely overwhelmed with all I have to do to move by the end of July. I don't know W/H/WTF I am going to get all of this done and all of what I need to do is some writing projects I have to complete along with all the move bullshit.
BTW, I hate moving more than just about anything. I think I would rather deal with human beings' bodily fluids than moving.
Not. joking.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I missed the deleted post, but {{{Kat}}} anyway, on general principle; the responsibilities-and-big-decisions part of being a grown-up both suck and blow in the most undelightful way possible.

I assume that moving will be what I do in hell.
