I started looking for a library book online, but somehow now I have too many library options, and it was overwhelming!
Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The status is NOT quo.
We owe so much in personal taxes very unexpectedly this year (SO MUCH) and it's come completely out of the blue due to some misunderstandings on our part. So yeah. The past few days have been pretty shitty since the money is coming out of the maybe-someday-we-can-buy-a-house fund, which is swiftly turning into a we-will-never-own-a-house reality.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Oh no, Pix! I'm so sorry. That's rough.

That sucks.
My 5 miles of vigorous walking +squats planting things was too much. My legs didn't work right today and apparently I have a blister or two. Still worth it, but ow..

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.
What a heart-ache, Pix.
sarameg, I hear you on the ouchies.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I might need a place to hide a body. The tax deadline is tomorrow, and just now -- it's 11 p.m. and I need to go to bed -- Tim is trying to find all his medical expenses (of which there were many last year). He just handed me a thick stack of unopened dental EOBs and a letter opener. This isn't what I meant by "Yeah, I'll do your taxes."
I mean, I get that things have been busy and crazy with his dad, but this is not cool. I'm trying to not lose my temper with him.

File an extension, lesson learned about that offer. Deal with all the emotions and expectations and body hiding later.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Yeah. Go extension, choose extension!

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
sarameg and aurelia are wise. Thirding the extension suggestion.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
7AM meeting. So far, only people here are the organizer, me, and my coworker.
