Did I ever tell you about the drug dealer who used to take out my trash for me? I actually knew him from high school, but he lived in the apartment upstairs from me for a while. I used to leave the filled trash bags outside my door, and he would hall them out to the trash without my asking.
Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

That's nice, sj!
He said "Oh, yeah, I was out of underwear so I grabbed those." [pause] "You...want them back?"
Ha!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I never did the boxers-as-outerwear thing, but I did hangout in the dorm courtyard and lounge in my bathrobe a lot. That was all about claiming the space as not really public, even though it was, for me. "The world is my living room" I would say. I have lived in the same house for 12 years and I still feel like I'm intruding on the neighborhood, though.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Boxers as outerwear was the style, though! The guy came. He was so nice. Still don't know the price. I asked for bag removal, total trash out of the living room and to clean the kitchen floor. Depending on loan timeing and price, I may admit I need help. They need half up front and I really need it done next week. We will see.

Glad he was nice, Sophia. I hope the money part all works out easy peasy

Excitement I didn't need this morning! Got into the office this morning and my boss turns to me and says. "There's something weird going on with the network, and it says your account has been deactivated." I try to log in, and yep, I don't exist.
Run to IT and they reassure me that there is something going on company-wide, there's 500+ employees with the same disturbing issue, and they're working on it. My skip-skip level big boss was standing there, and he said, "Yeah, don't worry about it. Oh right, you're a Microsoft vet, I get why a message that your account was deactivated on a Friday would freak you out."

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
YIKES!

Our wings are not tired.
Phew! I get calls from users with such issues from time to time and tell them they can go home early, but they know me well enough that they don't believe me.
Sophia, I hope you get a quick and reasonable quote.

That would be so scary!
I just met with one of my freshman, and I really want to get this kid off the track I think he thinks he needs to be on. He is miserable in most of his classes, and planning for more misery! I just don't think that is necessary. You can still get a good job taking classes you like!
