There's No Place Like Home...

Another update from the Land of Oz and tornados...
Apparently, I wasn't too far off in thinking that an insurance deal would be nice... they're worried about it, too. Enough so for the adjusters to assess the area's damages... and DOUBLE premiums on our homeowners'. This has prompted someone to decide that it can't be afforded any more, which has forced a search for cheaper insurance or refinancing... or else the sale of the house.

Exhausted.
I don't remember if I made any mention here (aside from any private messages) about my grandmother's death at the end of April.

This is pretty much how that went: Mayor McCheese: So how's it going? Me: Shitty. Go »"The Human Condition"
disclaimer: This blog may be totally random -- this may, in fact, be the first and *only* entry in it -- containing, but not limited to, anything/everything/nothing about dreams... A short while ago, I awoke from a strange dream that I think must have been brought on by a combination of posts here, along with another comment read elsewhere about "rumors on the Internet". Dreams, by their very nature, are extremely hard to narrate, but I will try to do so here (thus sparing E from being drafted to listen... Go »
