Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Happy Birthday, Connie!

I always forget the power of posting about something to make it happen.

Tried to get an appointment with a podiatrist this morning (think I've maybe developed plantar's fasciitis - whatever it is, it's making Irish dancing increasingly painful. And I had a performance yesterday, so I'm hurting today). Earliest available was 4 weeks out, in a really inconvenient location. How is it possible that a health network serving as large a city as San Diego only has a tiny handful of podiatrists (the nearest of whom won't see new patients)? Fingers crossed for a cancellation, or for the message I sent to my GP to be answered with, "Hey, I can totally hook you up! I know a (foot) guy!"

*Waits patiently for the power of posting*

hey, you could've adopted 6 innocent babies if you'd just never had sex!

Nice one, Zen!

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

It was his own argument! But I got him to admit that it wasn't about the innocent babies so much as about women irresponsibly having Teh Sexx when they didn't want to be pregnant.

I am amazed that Twitter adoption offers were not immediately jumped on by parents looking to give their baby a better life with someone else. What better reference could anyone have than a verified twitter account? It's a much more through vetting than refugees receive, I assume.

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

> Can you imagine a property listing for that? "3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, spacious kitchen, walk-in closets, sick skateboard ramp in formerly useful back yard."

Ha! A house we are very interested in possibly buying comes with a full karaoke/disco set-up in the basement. If I said this was part of the appeal, I would not be lying. [link]

Have not found any aromatherapy bath options near me, btw, but I did come across a yoga studio in my neighborhood that I didn't know about. I hope it is really and truly there and not some phantom of the yoga studio that used to be in my neighborhood (but had a different name and address, so I am optimistic). I think that would improve my life immensely, having yoga within strolling distance to my house, unless they are horribly expensive or unwelcoming in some way.

It has a gorgeous kitchen too, Scrappy!

If you buy it, I will visit SO QUICKLY.

Oooh, I like! The basement is awesome, but I especially like the stove, kitchen sink, and the wee drainage ditch in the front yard (I am a connoisseur of drainage - I'd like a closer inspection but from what I can see it looks well placed and well dug). What a lot of space!

I just saw omnis's post on FB, and then Pix's post in Beep Me. I'm trying hard not to cry.
