Steph, I'm so sorry for Tim and that family. You are both holding up the world right now.

Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Are you familiar with Highland Heights, KY? It looks like it's literally part of the Cincinnati metro area. A new job has arisen, and though I am side-eying how northerly the job search is trending, the position looks like it could be husband's dream job.
It is, in fact, part of the Cincinnati metro area. I like Highland Heights a lot. It's a nice part of Northern Kentucky.
MOAR GREATER CINCY BUFFISTAE!!!
t edit We have a lot of really good community choral groups here, too.

If the company is located in Highland Heights, depending on how long of a commute your husband wanted (and depending on where you worked), there are any number of Cincinnati (as in, actually Ohio) neighborhoods you could live in. I think I'm roughly 15 minutes from Highland Heights, as is flea, and Hil is also probably about 15 minutes (in a different direction), because of the highway.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Thanks Zen. I cannot imagine a world where I suffer from excessive sleepiness, but I can well remember a world where I wasn't horribly cranky all the the f'ing time, and I'd like to live there again.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Thanks, Steph. I'm concerned I might freeze to death, of course.

The weather isn't bad, and the summers can be downright tropical. (That happens when you live in a river valley.)

I'm sorry about Tim's loss, Steph. But I'm glad your brother's doing better.
I'm sitting in the bathroom with my laptop and my cat. There's been a tornado warning for about 45 minutes, and it's supposed to last for another half hour. Apparently a funnel touched down just north of town. It's a work from home day, and I'm glad I can be here and not wondering if my cat is ok.

Dana, Highland Heights is metro Cincinnati and the home of Northern Kentucky University. I have friends who teach there and live adjacent. We do have actual seasons, including winter.
Everyone I know in NC is posting pictures from [insert interior windowless space of your choice] including all the people at Calli's workplace, where she is not.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Teppy, once your brother detoxes, is he going to do 12-step or go to a clinic or something? Does he have a sponsor?
