She's charging me more, because I have a job! And she won't, pretty soon. So it's a good deal for both of us, and way easier than her trying to find the perfect tenant. I just started a year lease, so I have to give three months' notice to break it, which is actually kind of perfect. Gives us time to deal with my grandmother's stuff and redo the kitchen and possibly bathroom, etc. All that stuff hasn't been touched in 40 years, so it needs a lot of work! She does have newish floors in the main part of the apartment, which is good. I have been spending an embarrassing amount of time thinking about what needs to be done in the apartment over the past few months.
Everybody plays each other. That's all anybody ever does. We play parts.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And now I'm off to the house.

Because books.
That's not embarrassing! It's where you're going to live for quite a while. I'd do the same.
There are no words for how much I loathe my job. Later, to Craigslist with me.

I saw a post on another board That Capitalized Every Word No Matter How Important It Was. How do you type like that? It slows everything down.

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
Amy, I hereby bequeath to you my ability to attract a new job without even looking, especially when one currently works in Hell.
I reluctantly got sucked into Duck Dynasty. It's worse than the Mafia--I can't get out.
Gud, unpossible that she is 14. Really.
sara, that would explain it. It would be a BFD if it was just the badge, but the gun? Especially with police ammunition loaded in the clip? All hands on deck. I'm sorry work didn't even give you fifteen minutes to enjoy the peace.

I'm pretty sure I just managed to get myself into trouble at work, mostly by reminding the department head that I exist. Awesome.

I'll go you one better -- I actually think Willie is sort of cute.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I would like to report that I am eating a muffin.
I am left assuming that "FML" stands for "Feed my llama".
Ha! It should!
So is Duck Dynasty scripted or "reality"?

Ann, that's a ferret.
I capitalize "random" words when I'm trying to imply something. Sort of a substitute for "if you know what I mean."

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I capitalize playfully when I want a word or concept to be taken Seriously.

I don't know the causes of workplace Pooh Case, but I'm willing to blame business schools.
Tangentially, my entirely unscientific observation leads me to believe that the majority of poor spellers didn't read [books] a lot growing up. That goes double for homophone problems.
