The fetishization of September 11th is out of control.
I just roll my eyes when ever somebody posts "Never Forget." Like that's a fucking possibility.
Don't worry, I won't. Kind of deeply burned into the psych.
I love the smell of desperate librarian in the morning.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I'm right there with you, Maria. Also avoiding the news stations.

Our wings are not tired.
I've been streaming the local tv stations from home, and it is all storm news. My idiot brother is moody and grumpy because he wants to go home and "we won't let him" despite the fact that all roads leading that way are closed! Guess he thinks they will make an exception for him.
Other than the sibling frustration all is well.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
How are you doing today, Tom?

Stupid question for the real adults in the room, from one who was raised by DIYers and has only ever done DIY and is so sick of DIY I could spit: how the hell do you save enough to pay for a remodel? Or do you finance it? HOW DOES ADULTING WORK???

Well, my analyst was away for a big chunk of August, and I'm just now getting back into the swing of things with him on my childhood/self-esteem/loneliness issues. My anxiety levels were already high enough that 9/11 isn't making much of an additional impact.
Uhm, thanks for asking?

Plei, do you have a financial advisor? Ours was the adult in the room who told us whether to use our money, his money, or someone else's money.

Financing remodeling: I thought that was what refinancing your house was for.

Yeah, we did some work on our house with an inheritance when my grandfather passed, but mostly it's been home equity/re-fi money.
