I don't really want to go, of course, but I feel a little bad that I didn't even send him a card for his 16th birthday a couple of weeks, so feel like I should go. (I'm sure he doesn't care. Due to being 16.)

What do you get people for Confirmation? I think I got rosaries and other cross-related jewelry.

Yeah, I don't think I'd get him cross jewelry, but I could get whatever and call it bday/Confirmation. You know, if I had any idea what to get this kid. Maybe some good maps -- his other grandparents got him a car.

Oh, I also only had three wisdom teeth. What's up with that?

I only had three. I think my sister just had one.

It is a fucking miracle that anyone ever manages to buy a house.

Or to sell one, in my case.

It is a fucking miracle that anyone ever manages to buy a house.

This is my thought too, along with anyone ever managing to sell a house. Which is why I don't want to do either again for a very, very, VERY long time.

ETA: heh, selling nightmare x-post.

le n and Nora, you are not encouraging me!

Sigh.

I'm sure I'll have plenty to whine about when we try to sell this house. At least they're not happening at the same time.

Sorry Consuela. And I don't have enough distance to sugar coat it either. Ask me in 6 months.

Dana, I had your other wisdom tooth. In fact, I still might--I don't recall if they extracted four or five when I had that done. You don't need it urgently, do you?

My medical "it took >twenty years before anyone found the name for it" doesn't bear telling. But I really really hate giving my medical history to a new doc, and that doesn't even count the migraines.

I have now become impossible to watch TV (or anything) with. The pause button gets hit all the time, and I'm just ploughing through my stack of printer paper and tossing them to the floor when I'm done. I try to clean up once every couple days, discard anything that can't be turned into a "real" picture, or I don't keep for reference pictures, but I'm still not in control: [link] . Gotta work out how to work it.

IO9 put my SPN recap on their front page again this week, instead of writing their own. They didn't ask this time, or even tell me it was happening--Annalee changed the title and re-ordered the opening paragraph, and this is truly the point of their latest software upgrade. It's flattering, but then again...it's not like I get paid to endure the slings and arrows, although people are nicer once they realise I'm audience not writer. However, I do *not* have to reply to every comment, to either defend the recap or the show, and that's *hard*. Because the show is clearly perfect, and my recaps are...yeah, I don't actually have anything.

Let me go make sure I'm done sketching from Scandal before I delete it.
