I'll never understand how someone gets so entitled that they will go berate a clearly busy person at a food place because they got put on hold.
Like... Order your damned pizza online???
Why run in and demand the manager and then get pissed off and scream at them when they say "I'm the only one here, I just got done making 20 pizzas I had to keep them from falling, I was just about to pick up the phone."
Why?

Leave my kids alone. (Thank God my district wasn't directly targeted. But every school in Denver/most surrounding cities were on Lockout/controlled release.) It sucked to walk the Boys and Girls Club kiddos over and go, "If the crazy person were to attack, could I really protect them?"
(The answer is no - probably not, not all of them.)

School is canceled today because of the crazy woman with a gun.
It's been years since I spoke French, but I was following Le Monde obsessively today as it was updating faster than most of the English language news sites today. Provided I've been translating correctly, what we know so far is:
- Two thirds of the roof, including the spire, have been completely lost
> - As the spire was directly above the altar, this was likely destroyed
Somehow, somehow, the altar survived the spire's collapse.
Small, structurally sound thusly. Also the melting point of gold is way, way higher than the burning temp of wood.

In the case of the altar, I was mostly concerned about the weight of the spire crashing down on the statue of the Pieta. I mean, yes, it's stone, but the spire weighed something like 700 tons. Lead and oak are heavy, y'all.
This whole last 6 months can go right to hell. While there has been some good in it, mostly it has just been a pile of crap.
I mean, I am thankful we both have families that will help us, so we are not as fucked as we could be, but I hate that I have to ask for help.
takes a deep breath
Sorry, I just needed to get that out.

This is pretty terrible.
I was on Zoloft and would get wicked headaches that'd lay me out for hours during the adjustment period. Might be that...?

@TiredEwok Could be medication related, but she should be over any adjustment period by now. It's been months.
@TiredEwok Seconded. Years back, tried this, same result. Cure was worse than the disease in a very real sense. Definitely worth checking out, and I hope other meds are tried. There's a reason we have a bunch of them as options now, this being a non-trivial one.
Ah. Am sorry to hear that. 
ETA: Has she been kept on the same dosage the entire time? Because all those shitty side effects will happen every damn time they increase or decrease the dose.

@TiredEwok As far as I know her dosage has been set for quite some time, but I must admit I am not privy to every subtle change they have made to her medications.
That being said if the doctors are ordering CT scans, MRIs and other tests, I think they might have exhausted the idea this is a side effect, but I am not a doctor so I don't know anything for sure.
Hoping for the best for her.
This hot/cold weather shit can fuck right off.
Lost my job a month ago, unemployment has been non-communicative, not one place I've applied to has gotten back to me, my account's overdrawn once and last I checked I had $35 in my bank account, which will overdraw again in a couple days on a loan to the bank that's almost paid off. I'm getting kicked out of my home in June, and I was supposed to be moving to Texas to a room that a friend has for me, so I'm not really sure what to do about the job thing if I only have a month if someone were to hire me tomorrow. The only reason I can move at all is because my mom is willing to drive me, otherwise I'd just be homeless, I guess.
I fucking hate my life.
Fucking sales agents at ADT. They should not be misleading people regarding how security systems work to make their fucking sales.
Maybe when you have LITERAL HOLES in the WALLS of your house, and your renter says: There are rodents in my wall. You should ... not spend money on a fucking gaming computer after you have been out of work for a while, and (probably only went back to work when your computer died), but instead put the money you're getting from a new job in FIXING THE FUCKING HOLES IN YOUR HOUSE.
Idk.
Or you could just screw yourself out of another months of rent when I fucking bounce a month early because THERE IS NON STOP FUCKING SQUEAKING and SCRATCHING next to my fucking bed.
Not really RL Anger, more like RL Sad. Broke up with my girlfriend today. It was mutual. Nobody cheated. Nobody lied. Nobody did anything wrong. Said how great each other was. She wants kids and it's not something I really want myself. Couldn't figure a way out and ignoring it wasn't going to make the issue go away.
It was a great relationship, nothing horrible. No arguments. Just....didn't work. And I'm left at a loss.
