  • Out last house had two street names and numbers assigned to it.

    The first set of info came from the original planning of the suburb, and all the utilities connect to that. All mail comes to the second info because some dumbass put the mailbox on the wrong side of the lot. (Which caused the postal service to assign a mailing address that made sense to them.) The house had big numbers matching the mailing address when we moved in.

    Google refused to change to the mailing address since it didn’t match the suburb lot plan.

    We thought it was hilarious so we just rolled with it, and explained when friends inevitably got lost while using Google or Apple maps not to trust them too much.













  • The hypocrisy of caring and Hallmark holidays.

    Some calendar days were created by companies out to make money, others by organizations trying desperately to raise awareness for their worthwhile cause.

    The end result is often the same, jump on the bandwagon for one day to be seen as doing good or being good, then hop off and return to business as usual.

    There’s a calendar day coming up that every year makes my life worse. For one day a year, acquaintances ask me a question, don’t care about or listen to my answer, and then go back to ignoring me for another year. Oh but hurrah for them, they did the thing they normally wouldn’t because social media gives them warm fuzzies for announcing they did the thing. They don’t even remember the questions or answers, for them, it was a thing to do, instead of being a better caring person for the other 364 days.
