There are no absolutes. No right and wrong. Haven't you learned anything working for the Powers? There are only choices.

brillig

keep me from buying an ouzi, instead.

Do you mean ouzo as in booze or Uzi as in gun?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I meant uzi, but ouzo would work, too. Both? Yeah, both.

I do the insurance incentive thing because it was easy and I like saving money. Ours is only $25 a month savings, but money is money and I want as much of my money as I can get. I kinda don't care if they get my info.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Beverly, there was recently an article in the paper about the shockingly large number of women who, because of child care costs, are essentially paying to go to work. It was depressing ... and I don't even have a child.

Having gone without a raise for a few years, and a 1% raise last year, I'm trying to cut costs wherever I can. I dropped my at-home broadband WiFi, since I couldn't get a signal most of the time, I bring my lunch as often as possible, rather than buying, ride the bus and rarely take cabs, I've tried to cut my "fun" purchases, get e-books on sale rather than buying paperbacks, or buy them from a used book place (which uses the money for literacy programs, so I can feel good about what I do spend), and just try to keep my spending down.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Go team more (re- or differently-)gainfully employed!
