You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'm so stressed out.

Leaving for the clinic in fifteen minutes. Please, just sign the stupid fucking waiver without any further issues.

Oh, man, I certainly hope that waiver is signed by now. I forgot how good mono is at fucking up schedules for a way too long. Boo.

Thrive to spite them

David that really sucks.

Work was less busy but more asshole customers. We don't have milk. We got bread but only Nature's Own Butter bread. People aren't happy with that.

Lots of people around here are buying locally to donate to WNC. I want to tell them to STOP because we are running low on stuff for local people who don't have power or water. But on the other hand I'm glad people are being generous.

A lady threatened to beat my ass because she thought I cut in line and I didn't "don't test me....I know I was here...I will bear your ass.." I was starving and trying to get food for my break. I got mad and left the came back with a manager and the lady had left and the other customers let me get my food

And I helped the lady twice before that !

There is still a power line down across 276 on my way to work. Most of the traffic lights are out. The mall parking lot has turned into temporary housing for 2000 workers...just for Greenville County they have mobile kitchen , bathrooms etc

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Papers signed. Matilda is uploading now.

Bonus: we got there and Matilda said, "I think I should talk."

So she handled the whole thing and there was no issue. Did take an hour though and she needs a follow-up on low iron. Which could be yet another factor in her low energy ways.

Once her forms are uploaded I'll get a link for the deposit and we'll be on to the next stage.

But that should secure her spot in the spring Kyoto program.

Way to go, Matilda! And yay for forms being formed!

askye I'm so sorry. All that aftermath is just hard to bear and it doesn't hardly let up. Hang in there.
