Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

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

Skipping (or inadvertently delaying by a lot)lunch, I always find, shortens the attention span.

I got hired as a temp for a two-day job of typing. It was for a three-page report. I finished it in two hours--with a retype because I missed a word. The boss stared at me for several minutes when I told him I was done, then studied the report a while, then stared at me. Even on a manual typewriter it wouldn't have taken me two days to type three pages. I knew I was doing myself out of money, but I physically couldn't type slow enough without throwing more errors.

I got home and am reunited with my beloved phone and the poor thing has sat here on the couch all day quietly running out of juice.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Poor phone of -t.

We discovered today that I dont know where I live. I mean, I know where my house is but not where it is located. We get mail addressed to both Denver and Littleton. My zip code crosses three different counties. And, of cousre, I sent CJ to the wrong county DMV. I would have sworn all the closing documents said Jefferson County, but apparently we are Denver County. Oy.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I need people to let me know if a bus crash in Chicago makes national news so I will know to check in with my parents.

Brenda, you all good?

Anyone have opinions stain colors? I'm having the porch ad deck redone, which is badly needed. But I'm kind of at a loss in figuring out what stain to go for. The house is sort of khaki? [link]

I love the look of a sort of bluish gray, but I don't know if that will work or just look old. Alternatively, a deeper color could work. But which? I am so out of my depth. Any ideas or opinions welcome.
