Juliebird, how awful. What a clusterfuck. I feel for you and your family
Let him do his thing, and then you get him out. No messing with him for laughs.

Julie, sorry for what you and your family are going through. We're here for you. And hey, we like gallows humor if it works for you ;)

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I'm so sorry, Juliebird. Wishing you peace and strength.

When am I gonna learn that if I stretch out on the floor at 11:30 at night (to stretch), a cat will inevitably climb on me, inevitably I will say ' ok, for a minute' and then I'll wake up at 4 am, with all the lights on, stiff and with carpet imprints?
Happens.every.time.

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

So I was informed by a mechanic in NJ that I needed a new central exhaust pipe but it wasn't urgent and I was safe to drive. Knowing my dads mechanic was way cheaper, I put off re repair until I got to NH. I'm informed that my central drive shaft is loose and my car is unsafe to drive! It's not like I haven't had four mechanics looking under my car over the past four months. They caught: some rust, a missing sway bar, the exhaust pipe, and the exhaust pipe and finally the drive shaft.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So I'm watching Season 1 of Project Greenlight (NB: Not the most relaxing choice to do work to!), and they are standing around arguing about how they are wasting Magic Hour setting stuff up, and honestly? Magic Hour is real -- the documentary footage of the people arguing looking great.

I'm doing some onerous tasks this afternoon. I found a salon and made an apartment in a couple of weeks. I ran some errands and went to the post office to mail a Memento DVD back to my old roommate. I found two copies when I unpacked and her DVD collection was kind of pathetic once I'd packed mine. Then I called my insurance company because my prescription refill request got a weird insurance hold, but it turns out there's nothing wrong with my insurance so now I get to call the pharmacy.
I'm also trying to figure out if I can fly to Michigan for the weekend from the Kitchener-Waterloo/Toronto area. It turns out that it's very expensive and may involve multiple connections. REGIONAL FLIGHTS, WTF is wrong with you?

That can be really annoying, shrift, good luck.
I ate too much gooey butter cake and feel ill. When will I learn??
I can't decide what to do with my hair. It's in a very awkward growing out phase...
