Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

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.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Have a three day weekend. Daycare is open on Monday, so Mr. S is going. Gary and I hope to go to the movies that afternoon.

Meanwhile, we're supposed to get "wintry mix" tomorrow. Bleah.

I'm at work tomorrow but hopefully I'll miss the snow and it'll be my boss's problem on Sunday.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Meeting is now at the 2-hour mark.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Juliebird, that sounds terrible. Can they do that? I hope you get a better situation soon. But landlords who are off missionarying do not sound like what you need, even assuming it's legit.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Juliebird, is there a tenants rights org in your area?

My day at work started with this announcement. "We're doing an hour of blood."

I wouldn't say no to curse-removal with a side of coq au vin, personally.

I don't think dinner is commonly considered a sacrifice.
