gwydion* TW: Rape. It is thought that the 200 girls kidnapped from school in Nigeria have been sold into forced marriages in Cameroon. Other have likely been "married" by the kidnappers.

* Housing Update: The reason they did not call was they were actually searching properly for my paperwork. They found it. Given that by not looking for it properly they could have charged us aprox. $1000.00 of fees, I am actually kind of impressed. I had in fact turned in the auto withdraw with all my initial move in paperwork in early November. It had gotten filed without being processed into the computer. As they'd made a rather big screw up, they are giving us time to raise the back HOA charge. She didn't give a firm get it by X date, but really it was implied I need to sort this out this month. Then to start raising property tax money for the end of Summer. Crisis is looking temporarily averted. When I see what money comes in, I'll do the math on how short we are and work from there.
* I really need to set up ebay sales, but not today. Today, I need to sit still.
* Hector's been yoyoing again for days, which steals my sleep. I subscribe to Squirrel's theory that he's forgetting Mache is dead. He wakes up and can't find her on her spot in my bed. He goes searching the apartment for her, panics, starts howling. I wake up, and call until he comes. He runs to me terrified and relieved. I pet him until he calms down. I drift off to sleep. He realizes Mache isn't in her spot, rinse and repeat, often for hours. Today he was caterwauling full volume. I think he didn't recognize the apartment either, poor little guy.
I am feeling like I've been beaten repeatedly, which is a thing that happens when I push my body to hard and can't get proper sleep. It is at least half my fault.
* I've got circular swaps with openings.
