Aw guys, I'm so sorry.
They're doing it backwards; walking up the down slide.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Thrive to spite them
The propane people are jerks. At least they are jerks that didn't cost me a lot of money.
So I kinda hurt my back washing dishes (I know that sounds weird but the floor isn't level and combine that with my shorter right leg and my left side/hip starts hurting when I bend over too long). And the propane guy came. My tank is fne. The gauge is fine. The only problem is htey came by (when I'm pretty sure I was here) and left a notice saying the tank hadn't been filled in 3 years.
My stove wouldn't light.
Because the TOOK the regulator!!! It was actually 60% full. The tech was like "maybe they had the wrong number" nope. And then were more excuses but it turned out only costing about $10 so not worth a fuss. But I hate these people they were jerks about the fuel oil.
Conveniently they came out and put fuel in AND then a few days later had someone look at it and deem it not acceptable (he made it sound like it could rupture any minute,w hich if it was that bad why did they put oil in it?) and they'd replace the tank, but they'd have to remove the fuel oil and then replace the tank and put more fuel oil in. And that would mean paying for more oil.
Plus there's something going on with meds or mood or something because everything is pissing me off lately.

askye, that's craziness.
I had my last OB appointment and last ultrasound before baby day today. ltc was trying desperately to get her foot in her mouth during the ultrasound. Everything looked good, and my doctor now thinks I'm probably going to make it to Tuesday. TCG took me out to my favorite fancy burger joint after the appointments.

The propane people would piss off anyone.
ltc will enjoy being able to get that foot.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Those must be some seriously nommable toes, sj!
And some seriously craptastic propane people, askye.

I'd be pissed off at the propane people, too.
Mmmm, baby toes!
Well, my outfit for my nephew's wedding has finally come together. I picked up the sandals yesterday. They're flats, because they have to be. But they're all strappy and have a bunch of sparkly bits, which makes me happy. I tried on the whole outfit last night, and I don't think I'll shame my family. At least not regarding clothes. There's always a chance someone will bring up politics or religion at the wedding and I'll open my mouth, but here's hoping I can avoid that. Today a pedicure, tomorrow hair and brows, and I should be good to go on Thursday.
