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.

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.

Yuuuuuup.

Yeah, exactly. I'd rather stay here.

And lose my 1.5 mile commute? See, this is my problem.

Very true. TCG's commute sucks, but we can't afford to live where he works.
