Yup! It would be for me too!
Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I got as far as a machine voice telling me that if I want to continue in English, to say "English". Which I did, thinking that I really prefer it when I have the option of pushing a button over saying something
YES. But I have found that if you treat the options like the first is #1, and the second #2, etc, so far hitting the numbers has worked instead. Or, you know, hammering zero until the computer gets fucked up.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
javachik, no I haven't and that is on me.
I'm just so disppointed that this is the guy she has chosen and I'm fearful that he will propose. They were here all of 30 minutes and he wanted to raid my fridge. Sure on the string cheese, but back off of the stuff in the freezer.
I do try to look for the good stuff. He finally has his own tow truck and is on the on-call schedule. But he has K-Bug go with him on any evening calls so she can handle his paperwork.
At least she is still submitting her school application for the PT program at Arapahoe Community College. And she got a 4% raise at her PT Aide job.

On those voice phone things, I just go with saying operator cause if I'm going to have to say stuff, I'd rather talk to a person than a machine. Especially when the machine makes you confirm that it heard what you said each and every time.

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

I do this too. If I wanted an automated system, I'd be using the internet. Phone means I want to talk to a person.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
sumi, do you have a backup plan in place if you don't have a new apartment by next Thursday? I'm not sure where exactly you/they are in the process (Has there been an eviction hearing or have you just received a notice to evict?) but I don't want you to be caught unawares.

Our wings are not tired.
Suzi, I wasn't placing blame; just didn't know if you'd asked and she declined to tell you.
To me, it's very weird that K-Bug would start keeping things from you. I am so surprised that she didn't have you go look at the place before they rented it, much less that you haven't been invited over.
Just remember that "kids" need to make their own mistakes. You've always been so close to her - this distance is going to be hard for a while. But she has a great head on her shoulders and I think she'll be okay.

Absolutely, javachik. She needs to be on her own and I support that, as hard as it is to let her go. It is the bf that has me the most bothered.

Yeah, he doesn't sound like a winner at all.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Hm, maybe I will try just hitting 1 next time, since I will have to make this call at some point.
