I saw someone in a porno that looks and sounds SCARILY like the mom of one of my daughter’s friends - so much that I think it might really be her - and I can’t tell anyone I know without admitting I was watching a porno. I need more friends who would be cool having that conversation.
And I don’t know how I’m ever going to look this woman in the eye again - I feel like my face would give it away if it IS her.
You’ll know she can read you if she asks you about “any good movies you’ve seen lately… like 1917? Or do you prefer cinema with a bit more… action?”.
You think that’s bad?
My birth certificate doesn’t have my name on it, because my parents couldn’t make up their mind what to call me until I was about six months old.
That’s going to be super fun to sort out.
So, after you go through weeks of bureaucratic hell and get a Finally Official Birth Certificate, you can choose your own first name!
No more Killerdiller Miller…
I just renewed my license, and I couldn’t get a Real ID because I don’t have a birth certificate or current passport. I’m not happy that I’ll have to go to the DMV in person and stand in a ridiculously long line. I would rather sit on my comfy couch and renew online. 
I think it’s actually easier to get a passport - and I’m glad I have one so I don’t have to hassle with the RealID thing.
Finally decided to upgrade from my flipphone to a smartphone. went to the tracfone site and found one I liked, verified that I could transfer my accumulated tie to the new phone and placed the order. Got a notice yesterday from FedEx that it would be delivered sometime today and I would have to be home to sign for it. So of course they came by during the hour and a half this morning that I went to the farmer’s market. Fortunately I don’t have any plans to go anywhere on Monday.
If I never see Notting Hill again it will be too soon.
Grrrrr winter dry skin. No matter how much I cream up there it is. Itch itch itch.
My daughter has a fever. Hurray. She’s a pitiful sad thing and we are all sad for her.

Since i’m in office all day tomorrow (rant #1), and I’m trying to not eat takeout, I decided to make chicken enchilada casserole, so I have leftovers to take.
Have everything… but enchilada sauce.
No big deal, I’ll make some!
Not enough tomato paste. Ugh.
Run to the grocery store, no tubes of paste (which I prefer), a can of paste is $1. Guess who hasn’t any cash? Get some other stuff to make using my card worth it.
Slip and fall on my way to the car.
Get home, start the sauce. Burn the roux. Fuck. Try again. Burn the damn roux.
Screw it, I have a frozen pizza. I’ll stop tomorrow and buy the enchilada sauce I prefer, and everything is already mise en place’d, so at least making it tomorrow will be quick.
Burn the pizza.
I took my son into his pediatrician today because he’s had a fever for the last 36 or so hours and I’ve had trouble keeping it down with ibuprofen. And he tested positive for the flu. She said I looked a little out of sorts so she tested me too. Guess who has influenza B as well? She’s sitting here with two thumbs and a scowl. Fucksticks.
Now the whole family is on Tamiflu. So much for that business trip I was going to take.
Fucking drug companies. I’ve been taking a combo drug for over a decade for hypertension. The drug is written as 100-25 mg, meaning that it’s 100mg of one and 25mg of another, combined in one pill. Well, they’re apparently just not making quite the billions that they had hoped for, so now they’ve separated the two, which means extra cost to me, and yet another pill to take. Fucking assholes.
Do you know if there are separate drugs in those classes made by any other company, which might be cheaper than the combo drug? Taking separate pills for hypertension rather than a combo pill can have other advantages as well.
Great idea, Jackmannii*!*
I had a combo drug rocket up in price, and was told only BiggoPharmaCo combined them, and my insurance wouldn’t cover (or give me a copay for) a drug that didn’t have a generic.
So I asked if I could take the drugs separately, and get generics of each. Doc said “Well… yes. Sorry, we could’ve done that years ago.”
My combo pill for hypertension was back ordered, so the doctor had to split it to two since they had more demand than supply.
Yes, still ranting.
My daughter came home yesterday from school only to tell me she’d passed out and hit her head. She “made her face turn red,” which essentially amounts to holding your breath and forcing a lot of pressure into your face (no clue how it works, but I’ve seen her do it; I imagine it works kind of like when you take a really hard shit and push like the dickens only without pooping yourself) until she turns red. Well, apparently this has made her dizzy before but this time she passed for a couple of seconds, fell and hit her head on the ground. Ten years old and you’d think she would’ve grown out of shit like this. All to impress her friend. I’m still shaking my head over it. I will probably call the doc today but I don’t know what to tell her. “My daughter had the equivalent of a defecation syncope, minus the shitting part; should I worry?”
My mom put her house (my childhood home) on the market last night. I didn’t realize how emotionally attached I was to that place and now I’m devastated. It’s the right choice for her, but goddammit. I’m so bummed.
Bollocks to Nigel Fucking Farage. That is all. He’s not worth his own thread, as a pathetic political parasite, but still; fuck off you graceless twat. I wish the shitshow he provoked would affect him worse than the vulnerable in society, but we all know it won’t.
My mother just texted me “Happy Brexit Day”. I hate what is happening and she knows it.
Time to drown my sorrows.
??? Getting my RealID was no hassle at all. It didn’t take any longer than it ever has to renew. Nor was it any hassle for my adopted daughter to get one.
