It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

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

Last week in Chez Suzi included a broken washer, a flooded apartment, bed bug discovery, a cold, and cramps from hell.

This week is anticipated to include final cleaning push for pre-pest control preparation, pest control on Tuesday, putting the house back in order, and getting our lease renewal notice on the 19th.

They have been remodeling all the apartments in our complex as people move out, but in 2013 all the remaining apartments WILL be remodeled. Not quite sure what our options are - move to another unit or store our stuff and move out during the remodel...and what the remodeled monthly rent will be, so there is the third option of finding a new place and moving out.

I need to figure out what we are doing on the "where we are living front" before I work out the "what do we do for a new washer/dryer".

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Way too cold in LA. Did not sign up for this crap.

Forgot I had a 7AM meeting until 7:20. In the shower.

It was a phone meeting, with India, and it went better than it had a right to be ("What does your row 23 say?" "I don't have a row 23--it goes from 22 to 24." "Then unhide/unfilter row 23--what does it say now?" "Oh, it says the info you were asking about.")

Now I'm at work, stuck in a jacket because a loo visit told me how sheer this white shirt is. Fuck you, white shirts I can afford. Fuck you.

really nervous which must be kinda weird for someone who's talked in front of a lot of people her whole life

The difference between your words and someone else's is huge, as is the difference between prepared words and improvised ones.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

It is really cold in LA, but I sort of love it. The only downside is I have no warm sweater/jacket that fits over my pregnant belly! I need to fix this pronto, hopefully on the inexpensive side as I'll only need it for a short time. I've been making do with a cozy cashmere sweater that I can't zip up, so my arms and back are warm but poor baby is probably all, "It's freaking cold!!!!"

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Someone - Liese? - was asking about glass fleck top coats. I don't know if this is what you had in mind, bur I found some Orly Prisma Gloss in gold. It's an older polish - I found it at a discount store.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Somehow I read that quickly as glass fleck top GOATS.

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

Yeah, you won't find those at the discount store. More of a custom job.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

OH! I forgot I had a crazy dream to share.

Jesse and I were at a yoga retreat (which? yeah, no I am in no shape for a yoga retreat) and it was super duper out there. We had to all be in this giant communal room for everything and there were different sections where we did "bonding and sharing" and there was a hanging toilet behind some hung up sheets we were supposed to use.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That sounds like my nightmare! I'd have to pee outside.

Oh! I didn't know until my coworker told me, but Jennifer Lawrence saying "It says I beat Meryl"? A quote from The First Wives' Club.

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 was a hanging toilet behind some hung up sheets we were supposed to use.

Now you've piqued my curiosity. When the hanging toilet is used, where does the crap go?

it was basically a bedpan. I was too horrified to even contemplate. Jesse and I were making OH HELL NO faces at each other as we were pulled to different groups.
