Yes, Seabee. . . your sister must move away from anything that is flammable or subject to natural disasters. :)

And I sincerely hope Lorin is wrong about losing the job. :cross:

I fractured my toe last week. Still no job. Money is flying out the window without being replaced, and homeless shelters are looking like a future for our family.

Hurray for life.

That sucks guys. I'm unemployed myself right now, but luckily I'm not hurting yet. Get the same "money out the window without being replaced" feeling though.

Good luck everybody. ;)

lorin: 23,000? A major company or some such?

Well, I still have a job, but it just got a little darker today. Internet access is being taken away for all but just work related stuff. Which for a call center sucks when the calls are not coming in.
What this means to you fine folks is that I'll be on considerably less, particularly once the kid is born. I pretty much posted at work, so I'll be around a whole hell of a lot less now.

FECK!

I feel fine today. Surprisingly calm, considering that tomorrow I am having surgery on my knee (ligament and cartilege repair).

I'm in a funk. Ever had someone who you thought you knew really well say something to you that...well...then makes you think "Gosh, are you really *that* type of person?" ...kinda blows you out of the water. So I'm in a blown-out-of-the-water-funk.
