No. I'm in the land of not coping, and with ltc at about the level of protesting baths and food. This protest shall absorb all my energy today--none left for any other considerations.
My cope doesn't extend further today than baths and food.
Why couldn't you be dealing drugs like normal people?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oy. My co-worker's roommate works in the building where the SF shooting took place so now I have to worry about her. I'm sure she (the roommate) has other things on her mind at the least but I wish she would call M back and say she's ok!

She's ok. She didn't take her purse or phone when the building was evacuated, but her sister was able to find her somehow and relayed to M. Whew.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Mr. S seems to have no problem with baths(other than getting out of them) and most food. However, any time we prevent him from doing something that he shouldn't he has a meltdown.(Also when Gary leaves his sight.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Phew, -t.
My mother got a letter today basically offering a million dollars for our house. (Usually they don't give a number.) If only we wanted to move somewhere cheaper!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Wow, Jesse! I really love my little house, but for that kinda money, I think I might be willing to check out nearby condos!

Because books.
WOW.

If only we wanted to move somewhere cheaper!
Yeah, that's my issue. I could sell my house for probably 3x what I originally paid for it, but that wouldn't give me enough to buy a similar house in a better neighborhood (for values of better that include closer to transit or the parks or whatever). I could only move out of the city, farther from my family and my job.
If I wanted to move to Omaha or someplace in the Central Valley, I'd be all set. But I don't want to.
I'm so grateful that the Alexandria shooting only resulted in the shooter's death so far, but worried about the political consequences. And once again the politicians and the media seem to miss that the strongest indicator of a mass shooter is a history of domestic violence rather than any particular political ideology.
Fucking toxic American masculinity.

Jesse, I think you should move closer to me, which would be much cheaper.
