Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I would laugh and laugh all the time. What a merry soul I'd be.

(My apologies in advance for chuckling discretely behind my program at your funerals.)

Sure I'd stop while acting, but as soon as they said "cut!" Or I walked off? Giggle fit.

Trudy, I'm right there with you.

I'm sorry to hear about your aunt. I hope she will be okay. I'm glad your mom is being smart and safe.

Thanks.

To all of you.

I'm grateful for my mom. She's a good mom.

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

I have petty complaints. Please scroll past if you are not in the mood to put up with that from me right now. I don't mind at all, totally understand. But I do want to complain.

1) I fucking love it whenever someone says "this is not acceptable" like that's going to make me jump to fix whatever it is faster. Especially when we did what we could to fix that problem on Monday when we found out about it, there's just going to be continuing fallout for a while. Have a seat, sir.

2) My dance troupe leader is pulling some passive aggressive"thanks to everyone who is honoring their commitments" bs. I did not make a commitment, sweetheart, I signed up for an event and told you at the time that I might bail on it! STFU or at least don't tag me in the damn post

The end. Now my four-day weekend brought to you by furlough days starts!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

or at least don't tag me in the damn post

That is some prime passive aggresiving.

Maybe cc her back on a post thanking people who don't hear what they want to hear when told the opposite?

Health~ma to your aunt, Trudy!

In First World Problems, I held off on ordering shrimp & grits from my favorite downtown restaurant because they were offering beef Wellingtons with roasted asparagus and garlic new potatoes for dinner. Which sold out by 3::30, as it turns out.

Does that mean you have the shrimp as a fallback?
