-three days of being broke with an overdrawn account and no dog food, bread, milk....
-was finally able to borrow some money from my sister-in-law and told her to put it into our account for us as cash
-she put it in as a check, so we can't touch it until tomorrow
-fuck. We have bills to pay.
-some money came in from my crowdsourcing efforts, so I could get some dog food, people food, gas, and rum
-am drinking said rum with coke

-also, we spent the day getting my brother-in-law's stuff cleaned up and out of the house so that he could pick it up and take it to his new place in St. Petersburg
-he used a friend of his, the guy I've mentioned before who beat up his ex and her boyfriend with a bat, to carry and load all of the heavy stuff even though he had just gotten out of back surgery a few months ago. The friend later went straight from here to his doctor to have the damage that was just done taken care of.

*The bed in this room is a single, so my husband has been sleeping on a pile of blankets and sheets and dog beds on the floor in the TV room. My brother-in-law gave us his old mattress, so we should be sleeping together again tomorrow night. Yay!

You may remember I posted about a nu metal looking dude in my apartment complex who was yelling "I WANT TO PUT MY DICK IN YOU" over a Smiths song. Today I took my dog out at 6:48 a.m. and he was in a different apartment, door open, no inflatable penguin this time, yelling "I WANT TO PUT MY DICK IN YOU, IT'S THE SAFETY DANCE" over "Safety Dance," which was playing pretty loudly. A woman was saying "fuck you" in a lot of different colorful ways, like "fuck you with a fork" and "fuck you with a rusty pipe." What the fuck??

not uplifting
i ended up telling that story to someone bc i thought it was so funny, & it ended up additionally complicated by the added layers of it being my remembrance of the story, of it being from ilx/the internet, of me having to aloud rather than in text pronounce the guy's alternate lyrics, etc.
the apartment roulette is such an interesting extra dimension. i feel like there is more room in this example of it for it being those guys' crazy inside joke, but wasn't he alone last time? harrowingly alone?

yvot, what did you go to Staples for? I love office supply stores.
I was trying to watch read that while watching TV and it wasn't making sense b/c I kept wondering if there were actually such things as Cheetos-branded Post-Its candy Sharpies.

As part of some changes at my office, I was going to be relieved of the task of ordering office supplies, but I held onto it b/c it's a fun and easy chore. Plus I have authority to order pretty much anything I want , so we're always getting fun stuff. Pre-hole-punched paper is the best thing ever invented.

sometimes when i hear people arguing i want to join in, it stems from growing up in a large catholic family where any small disagreement could erupt into an exhilirating free for all.

I feel like yelling out the window, "Dump his ass, Janel!"

either Janel must be very patient and forgiving, or she must feel horribly guilty and is perhaps a more aggravating person than her vituperative spouse

-grabbed the handle of a pan that had just been in the oven 5 minutes ago
-fuuuuuuuuuck
― dayo, Sunday, 4 December 2011 23:47 (twelve years ago) link
Ahhhh that is the worst! Actually, the worst is taking a hit pan out of the oven, not telling Jeff, and then he grabs the handle. Guilt!!!
Anyway, protip: drape a hot pad over the handle as a note to self/others that it's hot. Also I hope you are okay!
― thejenny, Monday, 5 December 2011 00:24 (twelve years ago) link
yeah it was for less than a second, no blisters and only mild lingering pain atm - thanks for the concern tho!

One time I picked up a hot pan off the dinner table and then yelled at my mom for not telling me it just came out of the oven. The next night everything on the table – serving bowls, pots and pans, glasses, plates – had a post-it note with her handwriting on it indicating its temperature:HOTCOLDLUKEWARMROOM TEMPERATURE

Tonight I was making a grilled sandwich in a cast iron skillet and I stepped away from it to get the Blu Ray player warmed up(Netflix streamin takes forever to load) and got sucked into fixing a problem with the ethernet cable.
Later I was reading some article online when the smoke alarm starting bleeting. When I looked up, the kitchen and living room were thick with smoke and my sandwich was charcoal. And it was hard to find the fucking smoke detector. It is tucked behind a light fixture outside the bathroom.
