lauraanne_gilmanSo, the great Breakdown of the Kitchen has begun. At one point I had to stop and remind myself that it only looked like I was moving. I wasn't actually moving. Those boxes were only going into the closet for a week or two, they weren't leaving the apartment... My Post-Traumatic Move Disorder, let me show you it.
I also hadn't realized how damn much space that bookcase was taking up, visually. Wow.
Everything has to be out and away by Sunday night. A little each day should do it.
Meanwhile, the rest of life marches on, and I begin to hear the distant sound of deadline drums....
-----------------------------
A news article that [bitterly] amused the fkcu out of me:
Some bankers say the conditions [imposed by the government] have become so onerous that they want to return the bailout money. The list includes small banks like the TCF Financial Corporation of Wayzata, Minn., and Iberia Bank of Lafayette, La., as well as giants like Goldman Sachs and Wells Fargo.
Dude. This is someone who supported the initial buyout here speaking, so listen up. The Government ain't Grandpa. You take their (our) money, it comes with strings. Lots of strings. And the big one is "no more doing what you were doing that fkcued you up in the first place." Mind you, I'm not a banker, so when one of them says "doing this will destroy us" maybe he's right. But it's not like they were doing swimmingly before they came begging for a handout, is it?
Meanwhile, Bernard Madoff [and how's that for a character name of irony, huh?) is reportedly going to plead guilty to an entire host of crimes, without a plea bargain, probably facing life in jail. Doesn't that make you wonder what else is waiting out there, that he thinks this is the way to go? The fact that he was wearing a bulletproof vest on his way into court is probably a clue..... Let that be a lesson to you all: never steal from the wealthy. The middle-class are much much safer to piss off.
