Hoping to start catching up on the weekend. One unusual thing about the September 15 - October 15 tax season at this place is that while we will put in more hours on a regular weekday, weekend work seems not to be expected. This is very different from other places I've been.
TOD: Music: Pat Suzuki, Don Cornell and Brave Combo

He personified everything she hated about Broadway artificiality.

I remember seeing (when I was a kid) the national company of DAMN YANKEES at the Moore Theater in Seattle.Burlesque comic Bobby Clark played Applegate.
Isn't that how they got Renee Zellweger and Marlon Brando to sing? Splicing it all together?

I hope it's resolved quickly and without any more inconvenience.I hadn't thought any further than the credit card thefy. If they want the rest of my lousy life, I hope it brings them the same joy it's brought me for the last year.I had a scare tonight: I thought my Mac, which is due to be replaced, had finally died, and i was wondering how fast turning on the gas would take to finish me off.This run of shitty luck has got to end before it kills me.
Larry, sorry to hear about the identity theft. It's always so galling! I hope it's resolved quickly and without any more inconvenience.
