I love this NPR list of people who comment on year-end lists. I'm trying to avoid year end lists, and I've still hit up on about one of each so far this past week.
Okay, going home now. Jeez.
Riley: No pulse. Anya: Yup. The space lamb got 'im.
'Never Leave Me'
Natter 69: Practically names itself.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

He said something that pissed me off, and then I just couldn't get past it. I still think he's a good therapist, and he helped me a lot this past year, but just not right for me, especially not for what I'm trying to work on right now.
I could get into specifics, but...eh.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
You know, I really thought that once escrow on the house closed, the screw ups with the bank and the escrow officer and the real estate agent would stop, but NSM.
The escrow officer I was assigned was supposed to send me the final papers and a sizable refund check via Fedex overnight delivery on Thursday, but when I emailed her about an hour ago asking what had happened since I didn't get them, she still had the papers and the check in her office. I know this, because she is now sending a messenger to my office with them, which means I can't leave until he gets here.
Also, my insurance company decided to keep charging me renter's insurance, even though I have had 5 million conversations with them about the fact that I was buying a house.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
If it's any comfort, Perkins, my experience with house buying and refinancing is that this kind of shit always goes wrong. I don't know why.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Fair enough. I hope you find someone better soon!

Have I mentioned that they filed the title deed with me listed as Real Name, an unmarried man?

For several years I had a longass rant in a file on my computer, titled Never Buy a House. Home-buying is the proof that Murphy Was Right.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It looks so easy on TV! They just sign one paper, if that, and then hug. NSM in real life?

Good lord, Perkins, that is some seriously frustrating shit. Hope it gets resolved soon.
Fair enough. I hope you find someone better soon!
Thanks! I just don't know how to get into it without making it seem like I'm raking him over the coals for being an asshole, which is not something I want to do, esp. when I think he's a good guy, and other folks on here know him. But I also feel like my beef with him is completely legitimate (for me). So.
I may take a break from therapy for a while a put the $$ towards a car. Independence over introspection!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
As long as we're doing this, did everyone see Katy Perry and Russell Brand are splitsville? Sad.
I knew the divorce was a foregone conclusion weeks ago when they went on talk shows to deny they were breaking up.
People who are actually happy with a situation don't need to issue press releases about how happy they are with it.
