'Serenity'
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.
also, if you feel up to going out to get food, you are pretty much exactly across Golden Gate Park from the Vietnamese hot and sour soup so healing I swear it could raise the dead, but unfortunately they don't deliver so you would have to drag your ass out there
Ooh, thanks for the reminder. I have plenty of food in my refrigerator so I can't justify spending money, although I may change my mind if I continue feeling this terrible.
WOOOOOT PITCHES AND HOME RUNS AND BASEBALL METAPHORS ALL OUT THE YOODLY-HOODLY!
It's exciting!
I spent a good hour looking at Zillow which is not something I've ever done.
Keeping all fingers crossed, peeps.
I would be crushed if that were so, but OTOH our pundits could then stop wasting everyone's time tearing us all to shreds over our inability to adequately empathize with angry white men and urging us to stop talking so much about civil rights and race and gender and other things that prevent angry white men from voting for our team. Sorry, guys, turns out it was just Zen's nail polish, so you can all shut up now.
HA! God, CAN they STFU???? PLEASE?
Loyalty to an auto shop has benefits. I got to the shop 15 minutes before closing to get my battery checked, but there was only one guy there, and he was wrestling with a stubborn alignment. The guy at the counter said Pep Boys down the street was open till 9 and could check the battery. I pouted a little, then started out. I went back in to use the bathroom (yay, the middle-aged female bladder) and when I came back out, the guy who had been working on the alignment was standing by my car with the tester. "Why didn't you just yell at me to come look at this?" he said, looking mildly offended. "Well, you were busy, I figured you had enough to do before you could get home." "Eh, it's just a test, and I know you got the battery here."
I popped the hood and he started to work. The guy on the counter came out and said, "Why didn't you tell me you bought the battery here?" Guy doing the test said, "And she got the starter here this summer, I put it in."
So my battery is showing its age but still has lots of oomph, it just doesn't like cold mornings (who does?). I will admit that having this shop less than a mile away was a big selling point for my new apartment.
Having stuff nearby is huge. I can, if necessary and sometimes not, walk to work, grocery, pharm, market, auto shop,dentist..hell, I even walked home from the ER on Monday (possibly crazy, but I was ok to walk, really! I won't be repeating it after surgery, promise.)
It brings a great deal of assurance.

Yup! It's why I never want to leave the city!
2 gifts taken care of. Part of E's taken care of.
PARENTS!! Why are parents so HARD!
ION, I have a nagging feeling like I have wronged someone and need to apologize. No idea what or who. Maybe I dreamed something. If I did something to someone here, I honestly don't know and it was most likely not intentional.
And you've got eateries and more interesting retail nearby. I lament our lack of even a neighborhood pub like the Dizz.
Gallbladder attack has got to be the weirdest weight loss plan ever. Just looked at my records and my surgeon visit was down 3lbs from the er 2 days before and I was fully dressed this time. Checked the scale and it's not wrong. Headcolds always give me an aversion to food, but now having an EXTRA pain aversion to food (I'm living off applesauce, graham crackers, fruit and oatmeal) I'm not keeping up with energy use. Which I'd work on, but I don't want to tease the dragon. I just have to get to the 12th. I want good cheese, but it terrifies me.
Normally food posts make me go yum! Right now, I recoil.
Confirmation! My uni results have been posted online. I got 89% for my final subject. Seven years of study are done!
Yay, the Master of Finance!
I've got a hospital just across the street from my place, I can see the ER sign from the main entrance. A nurse lives in my complex and walks to work. The LifeFlight choppers come over my building, but it's a small hospital, not a trauma center, so the choppers are rare.
