Two boxes in car, one bag of gently worn bras from when my weight was dropping. Now, savers or goodwill? Savers has some transparency critiques laid against it, but they recycle what they can't sell. Goodwill, I don't know. Both are on the same street, so.

And I can go to Harbor Freight!

Man, if someone shows up unexpected for an overnight visit, I am not entirely sure there'd be a clear path to the guest bedroom, let alone laundered linens.

We always have couches and clean blankets, but I'll be honest: there's a list of about 8 people who could get away with turning up on our doorstep for an overnight stay, and at least half of them are Buffistas.

My list is like Jilli's. Other half are my neighborfriends. I actually have a standing invite if something horrid happens at their house, use their keys to mine. Even if it freaks me out a bit initially. God knows I've benefited from the same. Oh, and it extends to Karen, who moved to NC. I told her to keep the key. And she's used it.

Dang, I miss her. Of all my friends on the block, she and I were closest. We still are, but just not in proximity and no more running into each other on the street and catching up. Or late phone calls, now that she's living with a boy. Mmmph.

We had a water boil advisory that just lifted after 31 hours. The true sticking point is that they discovered the issue at 3am Friday morning and did not disclose the issue until 10am, well after people showered and brushed teeth and drank water, etc. in their morning routines.

Fucking New Orleans.

Lordies, msbelle. So many responses.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The horehound is bad enough, all sticky and poky, but the goatheads are horrible spikes of unexpected doom and must not be suffered to live.

Everything in that sentence sounds terrifying and makes me want to stay inside.

Jesus.

Ack.

In short: the fuck??

is there a website that lets you put in a departure city and dates and will give you the cheapest air travel options - any destination?
