Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

Poor Dylan. Ugh, Jessica. I wish you a puke-free day.

Much comfort and ~ma to Nilly and family.

We just finished the paperwork for a possible re-fi. Now we are praying the assessment comes in at the right number. Then we will be able to get away from Big Bad Bank. Finally. I am so tired of this mess.

Off I go to the ENT for an evaluation of the wrongness of my sinuses. Whee.

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

On the upside, someone carved a chess set out of ice on the plaza outside my office this morning:

That's amazing.

Nifty!

Jessica, hope Dylan's bug passes quickly and that it stays away from the rest of you. The chess set is cool!

Sox, good luck at the ENT. And with the refi. And we will do coffee after the holidays, yes?? Yes.

Erin, seriously? That is a crappy beginning to your trip, SO you've gotten all of the crappy out of the way, is how I see it.

Someone around here had recommended a hotel in London (maybe to sj?) - does anyone know what that was?

I have spent two hours on the phone today with various gov't agencies that all want to me to go away and call someone else. (Trying to get permission to put a humane trap up.) While on hold I wrote my congress person at bonny's suggestion. It looks like John Kelly in the WP will write about us again, so I mentioned how nice it would be to tell him about all the help the various departments have given us, rather than all the roadblocks.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

points at JenP's post along with Sparky

I was SO on a plane to Bama. "roll tide" was shouted out by the Attendants when we landed. And echoed by the passengers.

As is right and proper.

It was the Regency Hotel in Kensington.

Love the chess set.

What are you trapping, Sparky?

What are you trapping, Sparky?

Sassafras. A long-shot at best, but we are willing to try. So much park land around here is a mish-mash of local and federal administration.
