I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I have it in my head that I really like sweet pickles, but I really only like particular sweet pickles that are not all that sweet. Cascadian Farms stopped making their baby sweets and only make relish, which I don't like as much (which is a phenomenon we studied in business school, something to do with margins, I always think of that when I am combing the shelves for a good sweet pickle) and then the local brand I found disappeared entirely as far as I can tell so there is a sweet pickle shaped void in my life. And I can't make them the way I like them, tried and failed.

My old mortgage servicer bought back my loan and are already annoying me - my payment is due, but they haven't finished transferring all my information from the interim servicer so I can't verify that my escrow account exists, and they want to charge me a fee for the "convenience" of paying my bill in the only way available to me. Sigh. I am halfway tempted to refi again just to get away from them, but I have no confidence that whoever I went with would actually keep my loan and I sure as hell don't want to get an appraisal.

I have a jar of sweet pickles in the kitchen that I keep forgetting about . . .

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

Question:

what do you call the items that you place on your feet and are intended for use inside your home?

I have heard a new term for this today that surprised me.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

slippers? house shoes?

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

I had only heard "slippers" until a friend called them "house shoes."

But I heard a 3rd term today that I had never heard before:

"room shoes"

Because books.

Slippers! Or, if you were my awesome MiL, scuffs.

Way to gross that out, ita! No, they immediately REMIND ME of Karin.

-t, even when my loan switched hands (twice between 2009 and pre-refi) they didn't fuck up the escrow or payment method, nor charge a fee. I'd google class actions regarding servicer, cause that just doesn't sound right. When my mortgage changed hands, Wells remained the servicer. And while I've had NO issues with my brokers and WF, I do know there are suits against them. I get postcards about it all the time. I look and it doesn't apply to me.
