I want to take a shower. I've been watching episodes of Kolchak: The Nightstalker. I am alone in the house. I am now afraid to go take a shower. Well thought out, Constance.
We're taking a moment ... and we're done.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I have just finished dinner and am debating whether to take a whack at some of the backlog of paperwork that I can now address.

I think job-having is going to be onerousing.
As it's a contract, rather than a position where I am a real person, I'll be having to do things like fill in time cards and not have PTO and have to carefully arrange my schedule because there's no flexibility when you're not a real person.
OTOH, there's the possibility of OT, which you don't have if you're salary, but OTOOH, like most contracts, I suspect it's not something that they actually want to have happening.
I mean, it's been more than eight years since I was contracting. I'm not used to being so... subordinate.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I am not a huge fan of being contract, but am a big fan of being employed.
Right now, it is completely full of onerous.

Argh, yes. I hate that. I find myself not volunteering for things and getting difficult about chains of command, because I'm a contractor and thus a lower level of being. It also contributes to me feeling like I'm not very relevant and my career is stalled out. Don't like it.
But it's better than going hungry, so.

I really wish I could get into a credit union, but the ones around here are for public employees.
Take a look at City National bank. It's not the one I use, but I have friends in Los Angeles who use them and love them. It's another small bank that has very personal service. I'd recommend American West which is my current bank, but it doesn't look like they have any branches in your area.

Plei, now that you've mentioned your mom and her comments on FB, I can't help but be looking and WOW. The pictures of the hair, and her comment? Eesh! Thanks Mom??
I declare Ple's mom to be whackaloo. I'm glad we have her for our own because her own family is deficient in appreciating her awesomeness.

You should try being on a road trip with her sometime.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Yes, good lord. Plei, you AND your hair looked wonderful.
I am currently dissassembling a large purse to reassemble as Rocket's vest. I think I will also be sacrificing a pair of pleather pants (that don't fit me) to the cause, and there will be lots of duct tape involved, because I don't sew. I have so much to do. Ack. Ack. Ack.
