Replacing the much lamented 'On My Mind' profile option, this thread is for musings, jottings, whimsies, preoccupations and the rest of the thesaurus for anyone to jot down anything they please.
I can't remember what the maximum character count was before, can anyone else? But anyway it wasn't very many so let's keep to that.
the court case (surprise, surprise) has been postponed! but murphy insists he has - absitively posilutely - nothing to do with it. (...can we really trust someone who says "absitively posilutely"?...).
meanwhilllle, of course, murphy just keeps adding laws:

so, i wrote an sms to murphy:
dear, sweet murphy,
are you a scaredy-cat? why weren't you in court today? the judge and i waited. to be fair, i would be frightened too, if i were going to court against me. breathe in, breathe out. you can do this. see you soon. kiss, kiss.
bundle of joy :)
ali - we are a being profiled! Sounds like a good resource.
glad, i hope very soon things are solved!!
enjoy home, becky!!
Take time to get settled back in your home state.💗
On the surface, the plot is transparent. A 20 something marries a guy about 70 and doesn’t like it, he tries everything to be younger, more independent, and thru an elixir catapults himself into an actual 6 month baby, who the brother informs the wife she’ll be in charge of caring for, forever, as long as she wants the spousal inheritance.
This can be interpreted I suppose in a number of allegories.
Twilight Zone covered our aging crises very well.

Just thought it seemed a fantastic free resource.

Right, Glad. The host knew. Whoever cleaned the place - host or cleaning service - before renting to you would have seen the problems if they washed the cover... which they should have. Hope you find a place that's comfortable and CLEAN.
Ha! I don't believe it. For the damage someone would have had to remove the pad, then pee on the mattress and then put the cover back on. Not likely. Though there was a resident here last year that was a drug dealer, used coke and was very well known to the police. I chatted with the chief today. The guy has several warrants out for his arrest. Was guilty of stealing a disabled person's bike. The PD got the bike back.
So now the hunt is on again for a decent place to live. Ugh!
(i’m a lawyer in real life.)
turns out (who’d have thought?), murphy appeared in court today, with a law degree from murphy’s law school!
he also (no surprise there), snuck in 5 new laws!!

trouble/stress is never nice.
my sms:
dear, sweet murphy,
good morning :).
in a few minutes we meet in court. you and i both know that - i’ll - win in court. so you can just give up now. hug, hug, kisses.
bundle of joy :)
keep calm and blame murphy.
:)
Sorry that you're having so many problems.
I removed the mattress pad, it was so thin and backed with plastic. No wonder it kept shifting around! But then beneath that plastic a urine and mold stained mattress, I am just disgusted this is so gross! Took pictures sent to AirBnB and for the first time in the last couple of days they have not responded to my message.
I am fed up and I have paid until the end of april. I just don't know where else I would go. No rentals in this area. Housing is a big problem!
Has anyone dealt with a problem like this with an AirBnB?
dear, sweet murphy,
i, bundle of joy, look forward to seeing you in court. here is a big hug for you.
bundle of joy :)
