Got the doors in with only a mild soaking.Let's hope she pays promptly! I think she will.

Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?
Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I forgot about tax-free weekend, thanks for reminding me!
That's really a thing? Why do I feel like we don't have that here?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Some states don't have it. I think only 15 states do.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I feel certain we don't have it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Our next-door county has no sales tax. Our neighbors make the trek to the mall there for Costco and grocery shopping. Which, I'm not sure thing don't even out, what with spending on gas.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Tax-free weekend in Ohio is just for clothes and school supplies. (And things like computers don't count as school supplies -- it's just things under $75 an item for clothes, and under $20 an item for school supplies, I think.) New Jersey never has sales tax on clothes under something like $275 per item, so we never had the tax-free school shopping weekends there.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
A lot of it is that I tend to usually sit in the same place on the couch, so if I'm paying bills or something, then the stack of bills piles up there, and then I'm bad at following through at putting them in the recycling when I get up. I tried putting a small garbage can right there, but I kept accidentally kicking it over, and then all the stuff would spill. Plus, if I'm reading a book or using my iPad or something, my instinct when I'm done with it is to put it on the floor, so stuff just piles up there
Yes, we refer to this in my apartment as my "crap hole."
meara, yeah, psychiatrists aren't often covered anymore, I think? Tom and I just pay out of pocket for med consults, and it's pricey - a few hundred bucks for the initial consult and then follow up appointments (20-30 minutes) are around $135. But PCPs can only do so much before you have to let the brain experts give it a try.

Yeah, I get that about PCP but I feel like she basically tried one thing and then gave up. If I have to wait for an appointment and pay out of pocket, I'd like to try at least one other thing first, yonow?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Virginia's tax-free weekend has price limits (fairly generous), and it only covers clothing, shoes, school supplies, power generators, and chainsaws.
So if you need a generator and a chainsaw, this is the weekend to come to Virginia.

Thrive to spite them
Mom's birthday is tomorrow . She's in Florida visiting a friend and also taking care of her townhouse . Her friend went off for the weekend so my Dad is taking her to dinner tonight to one of his favorite places.
Mom worries sometimes that my brother and I struggle with relationships because she and Dad have been divorced for so long and we didn't grow up seeing a marriage work. I keep telling her watching them develop a relationship as a divorced couple and parents is a good model.
