Oh, mac. Sigh.

I'm just so tickled that Tep gets a "when I closed the bar on my 50th birthday" story - fantastic!

I'm glad he got the job, and that kid is -- lucky ain't the word, but it'll have to do for now -- to have you. Oh, man, that TEXT! Good car finding -ma to you.

It's in development by Rosenbaum and Welling and not a sure thing, I think? That news got a bit overshadowed by the recent SPN shenanigans, though.

Yeah, the Smallville news even hit my corner fandom, in between us gossiping over the SPN thing and flipping out over the photo of Hugh & Mads that Bryan Fuller posted on Twitter.

Flying out at 5am tomorrow and will be back home by midnight tomorrow night. 1 day to trade in a car and get a new one.

Wow

Jeez, msbelle, you're impressive.

I think I have made my choice of the new state legislature for my district: this is the person we are electing because Biden won the presidency, and Harris was replaced as Senator by Becerra, and Becerra was replaced as State AG by Bonta, and this is the race to fill Bonta's seat. Dominoes!

I do think I will not vote for Bonta's wife: I'm kind of done with political dynasties.

My poor pup is in week 4 of chronic diarrhea. Still haven't found the problem, and I'm getting tired of cooking up white rice and ground turkey for her. Next stop is a broad-spectrum dewormer, sigh.

desperate times and all that.

I really wish the child would see what can be done when ppl with motivation JUST DO THE SHIT and would take some tiny bit of that, but so so doubtful. I have sent him a link to three cars - 2 Corollas and a Civic. Choice, but not much choice. I hope I can get $2000 for his car on trade in, but will take whatever they offer and walk away happy.

$13,000 at 200 per month with 2% interest = Mac will pay me back in 6 years. I should hold my breath now, right?

Definitely do not hold your breath. Yikes, msbelle.

I too am picturing Kang from Simpsons!!

Woke up v early this morning and drove to my friends house to do her hair with another friend for her wedding. Took longer than planned and then had to drive the dog to the friend’s who is keeping him today/tonight. Wedding is in a few hours and is going to be hot AF there.

I bought 4 10 pound bags of ice to put in my cooler for tomorrow’s brunch—they may not last but better than not being able to find any tomorrow? The U village QFC was def stocking up on ice and people were throwing it in their carts.

IOh and msbelle if it makes you feel any better the friend with a kid who is very Mac-like decided his slightly older cousin who was going to school in their city would be a good influence (and is generally a good kid). So she spent a lot of time and a hell of a lot of energy and work finishing her basement and creating a bedroom and a living room for him down there. A LOT of work. He moved in two weeks ago. She went out of town last weekend and the boys apparently turned the A/C so low that the pipes froze. They didn’t DO ANYTHING (like call her or call the cousins dad who is a carpenter and handy and local) and instead just let the basement fill with water. And ruined some pipes and shit.

I should hold my breath now, right?

I will gently suggest no.

WTF, meara. Dag, boys!! Don't just wreck the house because you're scared to get in trouble! You will still get in trouble.
