I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

There was a company that did it for my family when my grandmother died. I guess they priced things, dealt with the sale, and took away anything that didn't sell.

Because this is New Orleans, I think they were these people, called The Funky Junk Brothers.

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

Y'all have me questioning my habit of capitalizing stuff in the subject line of e-mails. Because it's like a title, I guess?

If you know a local antique type shop, I would ask them if they know of a company.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I should have said... how to make sure the company you find is a good one. I feel like there is a lot of opportunity for shady dealers in that kind of business? Is that the kind of thing that Angie's List would be good for?

Yeah, I love the idea of being able to hire someone to handle the whole thing.

Because books.

Some people just make me want to go mow down a rainforest and set fire to styrofoam, I swear.

Some days, this could be my tag line.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I think Angie's list would work, Jesse, or maybe Yelp reviews.

The amount of work I already have on my to do list (left over from yesterday's requests) is making me not want to go to work today.

I think Angie's List would definitely be something to look at.

My mother was just telling me that her suburban support group friends were all freaking out that my father was found in Boston because Something Could Have Happened To Him! In one of the ritziest neighborhoods in the city? Unlikely. Also, he was way better off on a sidewalk with lots of people around.

What? I've walked all over Boston in the wee hours and never once felt the slightest bit in danger. (Driving, however, is another matter entirely!) They should come down to Southern cities like Memphis or Birmingham if they want actual street crime to worry about.

Oh work people, you frustrate me with your refusal to follow company policy and then anger at me when I point out such refusals. When you do not use the current version of a form and it gets sent back, I will fix it, but I will also say I told you so.

There are definitely parts of Boston where there is more street crime, but Copley Square is not one of those parts.
