Oh, Burrell, how awful! I hope your Credit Union helps you through this.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Thanks folks

Your CU is not related to Wells Fargo, is it?

I went right there too, but nope. I hope. In this case, pretty sure the fraud was committed by a third party, not the CU itself.

A lot of phone calls. A LOT of phone calls, potentially.

sigh, yeah, I'm gonna wallow in denial for a bit but that's what it's looking like

Shoot, the ribbon cutting on our newly renovated train station was today and I missed it. I'll just have to wander around it on my own some time and try to figure out what's different.

I'm either mildly feverish or it really is that gawdawful thick outside. I really can't tell.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's pretty thick here, so I'd imagine that's at least a factor.

Oh Burrell, that sucks a lot. Jesus. I hope you can eventually figure out not just how to shut it down, but how it happened.

Plus side: Global CEO's suggestion was "get over it".

Good for that at least!!

I woke up late and ran around like a crazed person, tossing all the last minute crap into my suitcase. Who knows if I missed anything. On my way to SFO now.

It's soupy even up here, though not as hot.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I haz a slight sad. My boss scored free tickets to a $90 a plate fundraiser for our org for a handful of us, we were going to make it a ladies' night out of it. But I can't find anyone to cover my shift, so I'm going to have to pass. On the up-side I won't have to figure out shoes for a dressy outfit.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm sorry you'll have to miss it, WindSparrow.

We're on what may be the second from the last 90+F days of the year around here. As I'm working from home today, I don't actually have to leave the house for anything today or, strictly speaking, tomorrow (although I'll probably pop out for an early walk tomorrow morning). I can huddle in my air-conditioned apartment and bid summer a sullen, resentful adieu.

In completely unrelated news, I'm thinking of cable cutting and getting my tv from Netflix and Hulu. But a lot of my viewing is built around home and garden shows, and HGTV doesn't seem to be a big player in streaming. Does anyone have any reasonably legal suggestions on how to have my Rehab Addict and House Hunters International without TW Cable getting a cut?
