Lawdy help me...

...but I was watching the DNC coverage on NBC last night and the interview they did with Rep. Rahm Emanuel (D-Illinois) still has me in a state of shivering, quivering-thigh- sweats ninnyhood. Big time.

Am I getting old...

...or are the new breed of landlords just a half-assed lot these days? Seriously, if anyone could point me in the direction of the one single g.d. landlord in the Oak Lawn area with any scruples left, I might be tempted to kiss your ass 'til it's black and blue.

And if you can't do that, then please point me in the direction of a lawyer I can hire to sue the bejeezus out of these property manglers when the ceiling above my shower collapses and nearly kills me.

Never thought I wanted kids...

...until now. For those who've yet to feel the parental urge, I strongly urge you to re-think your position. Who else is gonna drive you to the bar in your dotage? Your 12-year-old daughter, natch.

This bitch may be crazy, but damn, talk about resourceful in a pinch.
