Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

The laundry room clean-up only took about an hour, and that includes the balancing act of getting the washer & dryer (which both work fine) up on 2x4s so that the floor underneath can dry. Thanks for the well-wishes!

Having dealt with shitheel landlords before, I wish you all the best, Allyson, and hope you can restrain yourself from beating the shit out of him. I will say that I took one to small claims court after moving out and beat him fair-and-square when he began embellishing details about the state of the house and I produced photos that demonstrated to the judge that his testimony was a lie.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Allyson, what the fair people said.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

That's such BS, Allyson. It's clearly his fault. I think you were quite gracious only asking for the measly $20 credit. Who the fuck doesn't forward their mail?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

People on the lam, that's who.

I have finally hung a bracket with the sihouette of a quail, hung a candle from it, framed and hung 2 pieces of art, found a place for the gorgeous hanukah candles (in a v-shaped hanging glass vase) and windexed the table top. I feel virtuous. I still need to go gather random pictures from frames and rehome some of them, but I need albums for that. Tomorrow. And tomorrow I figure out how to hand a secondary curtain rod to hand all my baubles from. And if I find a craft shop, more glass and a way to put a gorgeous peruvian quilted thing behind glass.

And while I'm thinking of it, Target has flipflops again. $8. Now why flipflops and bathing suits are appearing in the usually-coldest month, after disappearing way back in early early fall, well, I'll blame someone as soon as I can find them.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Did I tell you guys I'm in a documentary about The Bronze?

No! OK, now you really have to get a myspace page. Neat!

I just watched the trailer and I'm like, Hey! I know all those people!
