Yay! Also, it doesn't work out to try and make kids (or adults) eat stuff they don't like.
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.
E is here and today has been rough I can't leave because I'm still taking msucle relaxers so I can't drive. The house is not sound proofed so I can hear more than I want. It's too small for hour people and then the 2 neighbor kids came over and I about melted down. I did not.
I have mostly survived. But I'm a over stimulated and just want to be alone for a while but I have no idea when that will be this is probably the last time I get to spend with E for awhile and I'm kn my bedroom because he wanted to see a movie and Home Alone got 3 votes so they are watching it and I am not.
I don't like the movie but the last thing I need to watch right now is a movie with so much chaos a kid gets left behind at home.
So I feel like a shitty aunt
We did have our Christmas and that was nice. I gave ideas for Xmas but some how I ended up with the new Harry Potter universe books from my brother. I liked Harry Potter ok but I would have rather had things off my wish list. I'll read them.
But E picked out and bought a nice soap doe me and Dad got me some books I like so it's all good. Mom got me stuff.
I just haven't felt very Christmasy and feeling muzzy headed from the medicine isn't helping. My shoulder feels a lot better.
My notorious RBG got here...she's sitting with action figure Bernie and Warren.(I hope they are like Toy Story and they fix the world while I am in bed at night, but that might be a lot to ask for $20.)
erika, my kitty kept knocking my Hillary Clinton off the TV stand where she was living. I asked the kitty if he was a Berner, but I suspect he might be a Libertarian. Anyway, I moved Hillary to the top shelf of the bookshelf, where she hangs out next to the Farscape action figures. Hilz and D'Argo are pals, which is pretty surreal.
but I suspect he might be a Libertarian.
Isn't Murdertarian a political affiliation?
Maybe a Berner kitty would push her to the left a lot. I would agree that knocking her over is kind of antigovernment. There is something...slightly male-looking about Action-Figure!Ginsburg but I can't put my finger on why.

Ha! True!

It really is.
I'm starting the new year in customer support hell with Microsoft. The disc drive on my xbox wont work. My account shows it is still under warranty so I sent it in. I got an email saying it isn't under warranty. I contacted them and on my account it's under warranty but in their system it's out of warranty. I can't find proof of when I bought it but I'm looking.
In the meantime I got an email about the support ticket opened on New years eve and I just have to send my console in using the mailing label.
So I contacted them again today and after expanding I don't know why this was created and that they have my xbox the support person told me maybe there was n exception made and they will fix it. I just have to send it in. Which I pointed out is impossible because they have it. He then told me to just follow the instructions on the email..
So I read it to him and we went back and forth and he is escalating it but he can't promise it will get fixed because it's out of warranty.
Lovely line from the 2nd season of GBBO, Sue referring to Mel and herself: "A pair of perimenopausal numpties."
I miss them.
Good news on the DH's health. He finally went to the Rheumatologist because he has known for a year that his blood shows high RA factors, and he has the lovely Keith Richardsesque knuckle growth. He checked his results, manipulated all his joints and had a long informative conversation with him. Says there is no joint intrusion, and he suggests doing nothing except a healthier diet and see him for a follow up in a year. Says he is better off than his grandmother because he never smoked and that really makes it much worse. No meds! He asked about his energy level and fatigue and the doc said to lose 100 pounds and see if he still lacks energy. Ha! Same thing the surgeon who refuses to do hernia surgery on him says.
So he could do surgery on the knuckle, but it isn't recommended since it would only be for aesthetics. Now for that losing 100 pounds part. He says he is ready to get back on that.
edit because I fail to proofread before hitting post
