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

No, I have no renters insurance. That's much too organised for the level at which I operate.

And Enterprise was all "Well, we close at noon, so bye." Thanks, guys. We were getting along *so* well.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Goddamn it, ita. I am so sorry.

Thanks, guys.

I'm really not coping very well. I have no clear idea of how I'm getting the car back, but at least I have something in place to get another car. From another company. Which is not cheaper, but they are not being dicks right now, so they win.

I just don't know how to do all of this. I really don't. I can't deal with fucking this up right now.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

ita, what a giant pain in the ass. Your regular insurance company may cover rentals and be able to help you out.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Oh,ita. So sorry about this fuckitude.

It's a rental that got broken into, so I'm pretty much on my own for continued hemorrhaging of money.

I just want to go back to bed, but the cops are coming to print the car, and then I go pick up a new rental from the new company, and then I work out how to get this rental back to the LAX location and find out how much they're going to gouge me for that, or if it would be cheaper to hang onto the car until Monday and return it up the street then.

Oh, my god, I just want to go back to sleep. FUCKING IDIOT.

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

What a nightmare, ita. I'm sorry.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh man, ita. Please let me know if there's anything I can do.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh jeez, ita. I'm so sorry. Crying in front of people doesn't seem unwarranted at this juncture.

In lighter conversational news,

Also, does a L really fit a 32 rib cage? That's a lot of dependency on elastic to span all those rib and cup dimensions in one size.

That's the same thing with tights, and it's so often bullshit.

Also, since I'm not THAT much of a slob, but still have fairly low standards, I totally neatened my bedroom in like five minutes -- hanging up/putting away all clothes that needed it, putting up my suitcase, etc. Have also gotten a massage, run some errands, paid a bill, and written a nice note to my choir buddy who is dying from cancer (but also preaching at church tomorrow!). Continued neatening to come and also vacuuming and some actual cleaning.
