You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I'm trying to flee a place where I've been the sole caretaker

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

"we're not in the state anymore, we'd like you to take care of the place like it's your own, we're doing laudable things".

Those will not be good landlords. They may be laudable philanthropists, but landlords need to be present and accountable.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh dear, Juliebird. What happens if you just stop paying rent?

I DID pick up something on the way and am gratified to report that Starbucks' ham & cheese croissant is really close to what I want it to be, and this cascara stuff is darn tasty.

Oh, wait, these are potential landlords? No, does not sound like an improvement.

I have a migraine and engineers are confusing me. What do you mean this code is missing from the previous change list? I'm looking right at it and it's in there?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Juliebird, that sounds like wiring money is not far behind...

ION, fuuuuuuck. I got a voicemail this afternoon from hr at the job I interviewed for, but I didn't call back until too late. So I guess I'll find out Tuesday.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I've stopped paying rent and they've shut off my water. It's winter so I have enough to brush my teeth and fill the cats bowl and take sponge baths and flush the toilet. But I'm in dire straits now.

But I can do laundry at work and take showers at the Y.

I'm mostly afraid of how this might impact my history for any new landlords.
