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, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Yes, Zen. He wants me in a position where I have to bend my neck back instead of being hunched over and losing the backward curve in my neck. I have a pillow under my chest and am up on my elbows.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Huh -- that makes sense. You work from home mostly, right? That's something, at least.

That sounds great, ita--I'm glad things went well.

I may be a hot mess right now, but I'm a FIGHTING hot mess.

Damn right. Also, this would look great as a sampler.

yay ita! Glad for the good interview. I hope you get the job (if you want it, that is).

The kids are watching a Clifford episode with a dog that only has three legs.

I desperately need a shower. We went to a doc appt and then the beach then went to Killer Shrimp for lunch. Been a good day so far.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Well, that was very nice. Someone just called me and interviewed me and I am clearly not tracking properly because I couldn't work out who they were either. But I think it went decently well, so fingers crossed I'll have two in person interviews coming up soon.

You rock these stealth interviews, ita. Maybe stop trying so hard.

ION, this was a day of onerousness, I just set up the disconnection of the phone number we've had for over 20 years. But it's mostly automated calls and wrong numbers anymore, and it just cut $60 off the monthly expenses.

Plus I did the monthly payment on the back taxes. I deserve some ice cream.

I'm glad you're getting interview traffic, ita!

On my way home, I had to pull over for multiple emergency vehicles and soon 3 choppers were circling overhead. A three year old girl was killed by a stray shot from a driveby 2 blocks west on Old York, goddamnit. [link]

I wouldn't characterize that area in decline.Struggling but on the upswing and then shit like this happens.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

That is horrible.

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

That's awful, sarameg.
