I hope the Chicago peeps don't get weathered away, and I hope the NY peeps get power soon (those without, anyway).
And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Power was restored pretty quickly in NY. The fact that it was the Mayor's home and subway line that were affected had nothing to do with it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Heh.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I am massively eh on them.Need her address too?
Yeah, I am sending these on. Someone might like them and I won't have the guilt of not being able to throw them away but also not wanting to use them.

There was a break in the storming and I took the opportunity to finish up my shopping for this weekend. I have a wedding card and gift, a belated father's day card and gift, a pretty outfit to wear to the wedding, and some whiskey just for me. (ETA: To go in the flask I am totally bringing with me to this shindig.) And I did laundry and some ironing.
Now all I have left to do before I leave Friday afternoon is finish packing and try not to drink too much tequila tomorrow night when I meet people for tapas.

Right! Well, I can't get too drunkified tomorrow night because I need to finish packing and go to work the next day, so I shall keep these things in mind in the face of tasty margaritas.

I'm all for appealing for amnesty and prostrating oneself at the landlord for access to the garden. And a fie on those who had complaints but didn't air them to you directly. It can foster community, that garden. So you overstepped at first. It happens. You only get to asshole status if you ignore warnings. Which you didn't get before the axe fell.
I've got issues with my 'hood. Especially in summer. But I holler at them before I resort to the big guns. Which I do.

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
I'm googling like a motherfucker trying to figure out if this is legal:
NOTICE: EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY:
NO ONE IS TO BE ON THE PATIO BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 8PM and 11AM. THIS IS A COMMON AREA.
THE BACK DOOR IS TO REMAIN CLOSED AND LOCKED AT ALL TIMES.
DATED: JUNE 27, 2007
I'm unsure if this violates any LA city ordinance or what.
Help?

The other thing that you might do is get together with those folks who use the garden a lot, divide up the apartments that are near the garden, and just drop by and say "hey, I'm part of the group that was in the garden the other night. The landlord mentioned that someone had a problem with the noise. We don't know who it was, but we just wanted to apologize to everyone and say that if, in the future, you're disturbed, just let us know and we'll quiet down right away!"
