Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

That makes so much sense to me, Calli.

That sounds great, Burrell.

I woke up earlier today than I have all week. Because I was hungry. WTF, body, I fed you yesterday! So now I am having a mocha with lots of whipped cream and watching TV, because I can.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I slept a long time! Good one.

And I just averted a potential crisis by finally figuring out where my spare batteries are, because my tv remote had crapped out. Phew!

Today's new listing! [link]

I am all paranoid that someone is buying it RIGHT NOW (I am at work). "Roll up your sleeves" means "yes we know the kitchen has yellow laminate countertops and what appears to be shingles on top of the cabinets, but there's a lot of potential here, and the neighbors have a pool!"

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I have no idea who Troy and abel are, but ...I might need to know more

Get the DVDs of Community. You won't regret it.

But the leaded glass and built-in shelves are great, and that looks like Rookwood tiles on the fireplace.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Someone posted to FB a screengrab of a nearby wifi network called "Troy and Abed in a modem" and I seriously think I need to steal that now.

It is definitely a Rookwood fireplace. I can call 'em at a glance at this point.

In other terrible news, we found out yesterday that DH was the victim of identity fraud, going on about a month. We have some credit card statements that he didn't sign up for, and discovered that this asshole requested a credit report back in February. None of our actual accounts seem to have been breached, so at least there's that, but I'm thinking we might not want to start house-hunting until we know for sure our credit score hasn't taken a hit.

And a question, totally unrelated! How long does sake keep in the fridge? I have no interest in drinking it, ever, because it tastes like pee, but it shows up as an ingredient often enough that having a bottle handy would be useful.
