NO YOU ARE NOT SORRY!
I GIVE UP!
TV time. Did they think everyone was watching Project Runway/Real Housewives so they could sneak in some maintenance?
Is it some sort of psychological test?
Take tumblr away and see how many people freak out?
I’m failing. FAILING! F-!

I did not have shark or cat avatar change. and the tumblaridiculousity drops to 15? Are u serious tumblar?
Whatever. Hope you choke on that amount. I hated it anyway. Wish I could blow off that ri-di-cu-lous feature.
Mine dropped too but I don’t even care. Just let me talk to my only friends!

Stop it. Stop it right this very minute. NOW.
tumblr, why do you hate me?
Maintenance and now acting all goofy? Why?

BRB, hamster burial.
Burial at sea…or? Oh, prolly not.
RIP, hamster.
Had to drive out to my Mom’s hosue, they actually have land to do a proper burial.
And we got back with 8 minutes to spare for Project Runway.
I’m glad you haven’t lost focus of the important things!
The missing girl who was found. →

The male captor fathered two children with her. My God.
The couple hid her and her 2 children in a tent and various makeshift things behind their house, since 1991 or so.
What?
Thanks for posting this. I keep meaning to go look it up but get distracted.
What a crazy story.
Hollywood trope I hate

when dudes meet a girl and they go up to placeholder third party and whisper, “That’s the girl I’m going to marry.” Cheesy and totally fake and even if it has ever happened in the last ten years, it’s weird and proprietary. I don’t think I would like to be laid claim to after one evening.
I am always creeped out by movie situations like that. My instant...

Affix your name and phone number to a magnet. The person in need, in the middle of the night, will then not have to think who to call, find the number and wonder if you really meant “Call me in the middle of the night.”

TODAY WAS MY LAST DAY AT THE SHOP.

Oh thank god, you have no fucking idea.

We can be unmanly together!
You guys may recall that I very recently had a similar experience. Could not stop. Still not sure how I did, but it could come back at any time.
I did this a bunch today, too! Glad we’re all in it together.

Hugs, dear. Hugs.

Make-Ahead Tip: Bake and cool cookies completely. In an airtight or freezer container, arrange cookies in a single layer; cover with a sheet of waxed paper. Repeat layers, leaving enough air space to close container easily. Seal, label, and freeze up to 1 month.
Ooo, I was with you right up until you told me to put the cookies away for a month…
That’s the...

Maria
Maria is a secretary at Mr Woolie’s office. (Is “secretary” still used? She’d be okay with it as she’s of that generation.) A few weeks ago Mr Woolie told her that I was going on vacation. Maria asked where and he told her I was taking the boys to see his parents in Delaware. “You call THAT a vacation? A vacation would be you taking time off from work and...
We love you, friend.

We do. It’s going to be alright. Some days are so much harder than others. You are having those moments right now.
We all love you very much. Please stay with us.

I’m not sure how to tell her goodbye. She’s been my best pal for seven years. That’s longer than any relationship I’ve had outside of a few close friends. I hate that she’s so sick. I hate that she has no idea what tomorrow brings. I hate that I can’t make her better. I hope she’s led a happy doggie life… I hope I’ve been a good owner and friend. I seriously don’t know what I’m going...
Thanks, Peter Feld

Most expensive thing I’ve ever gotten off CL is a $20 SwissGear backpack, never any electronics… but… if it’s reasonably priced and you get to see the monitor working first, it’s worth a shot.
What about pawn shops? I keep reading that’s a recession-type place to shop. My Craigslist items have been kid-related—no electronics.

I’ve had good experiences buying things. I’ve never sold anything but I’m very happy with the things I’ve purchased.
Relief and a self-pat on the back

I just completed and passed 3 years of (admittedly part time) study in a further qualification with a high distinction :)
Thank fuck for that.
Now I’m half way to my masters.
Yay, Mabel—congratulations!
I hope people realize that I'm not here for fun...

I have no financial support expect for myself. I’m working during school to get me through school. Still, I’m deadly worried, I don’t think I’ll have enough money for school…
There’s always loans. Yeah, it sucks, being 42 and still paying on my school loans but at least it’s all my own. Only thing I’d do differently would be trying to buy a house and starting up a 401K....

I gave up trying to put it together. Deep breaths. Near tears!
Woolie. It’s ok. Tomorrow is another day. Can you enlist someone else’s help?
That is a complicated set up. There are lots of small parts.
Boo! If I wasn’t 3 hours away (and didn’t have to work tomorrow), I’d come help.
Aww, thanks. I have other small presents so it’s not like he...

I was looking at my tumblr to see my posts about Dominick Dunne. He was on my death pool list along with Teddy Kennedy and John Updike.
Sad.
Dominick Dunne passed away last night. →
rosasparks:
I will miss him.
His column in Vanity Fair was always interesting and fun. He always had a sadness to him that was incredibly touching.
I was thinking about him today with the passing of Kennedy.
Dominick Dunne?!?
Oh no. How sad.

This is what the 3YO picked out for his birthday. I am going to attempt to put it together in the next couple of days. The mister is leaving Cleveland and headed to Detroit for work and isn’t sure when he will be back.
Gurl. Good luck. My record with put together toys and furniture for children is abyssmal. I have no idea why the directions are so hard, but I have ruined...
