My old AOL email was compromised. Somehow spammers got ahold of my contact list about a week ago and began spoofing emails to them. Nothing I can do really... just scanned and cleaned my devices, and deleted the email account I created like, 17 years ago. 17 fucking years ago. Mind blowing.
(Sorry if you were on a the receiving end of that. :( Just mark them spam.)
Portland gets enough rainfall that it was probably full 30 minutes later.Quote:

The tap water we have in CA tastes worse than what I imagine 38 million gallons diluted with several ounces of piss would taste like. I'll take it.Quote:

I wasn't really happy with the first three but the last two were pretty good if I say so myself. I bent over backwards to try and get the look she wanted and, even though I enjoy this hobby and I don't expect gushing praise, I do expect simple courtesy.
I'm also in a really bad mood due to something unrelated so that might have had something to do with my lack of equanimity. Whatever, I hate rude people.
Given what some people in the community charge for work it seems to me you are completely within your rights. You time is valuable, even if you're doing what you enjoy.Quote:

I told you guys I was a wild stallion rebel. Excuse me while I fetch my sunglasses from their numbered space on my dresser.
Finally sucking it up and selling my older daughter's beautiful palomino paint horse since the younger one is clearly not going to ride anymore. Hated giving up my farm last fall and wheedling down to 2 horses already, but that's life in divorceeland. #firstworldproblems
If you or anyone you know are into colored dressage ponies, give me a shout. And no, this horse is way too 'Merican and cheap for Ann Romney's tastes.
