Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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

In my life I have never heard of choosing office space this way.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh jeez, Suzi. Good luck getting that straightened out!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

There have been many R2-D2 and C-3PO dresses, but this one is especially nice: C-3PO Dress - Neatorama

Or maybe the fact that it's not especially silly makes it look nicer.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I was picturing them wanting hundreds of dollars to get this fixed. So the fact that this will cost $147 plus my time isn't that bad. But between opening the mail yesterday and making all the calls today I felt horrible. Here I am, trying to help CJ get his license and I might lose mine? Over something so old? Bad adult, bad.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

My credit union keeps downloadable PDFs of my checks online where I can privately access them for a good length of time. I've had it come in handy when somebody disputed as to whether I'd paid a bill.

I think you're right, Suzi, that it's simpler just to pay the damn bill, because the amount of time you'd spend on it otherwise is going to be a big enough time suck.

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

At least you found out this way, and not in the midst of being pulled over or something.

That's the truth.

Access to old records is one reason I've never changed banks, even though I don't like my bank much. They have all of my info!

Wrod. I'd love to be all Occupy and "Move my money," but is too much.

Because books.

Bad adult, bad.

Untrue. The DMV is going to squeeze money out of anyone possible, whenever possible. Why weren't you sent a letter about this four years ago if it dates back that far? I would be willing to bet they let it go as long as possible so no one fights it, and just pays the fees to make it go away.

You're an awesome adult, lady.

It's a racket.
