Fan theory has it the toxic waste that mutated the Turtles was the same that affected Daredevil. Unless there's more shipments of mutating toxic waste people don't know about.

And what was it about very tiny turtles, was there a fad or something that turned out bad back in the 20th century?

The guys that have been working on getting my shower in... that still isn't in... have evidently been trying to steal things from my house. My boyfriend caught one of them stealing his watch from our bedroom and carrying it outside. It's the worst time to be out of town...
I gave Ryan the numbers of my landlord and maintenance, but I assume they're going to be calling me here to deal with it because my name is on the lease.

And I hope he told those guys to leave and never come back, too! Your landlord should immediately stop doing business with that company or fire the guy if he works for them directly. I'd also demand to be informed whenever maintenance is going to do work in my place (it's required by law for the renter's protection) from now on. If things actually were stolen from you after not having been informed they were entering you could have a claim against the landlord. It's impossible to be there all the time when you have a job outside the home, but you have the right to know when someone is entering and have the opportunity to secure your property.

Sorry you are out of town when this is happening. I understand how being away from home can feel when something goes wrong. We were in Orlando for a short vacation and I ended up spending about 5 hours in the ER sick as a dog. They thought it might have been appendicitis, but after doing a CAT scan determined it wasn't anything to do with my abdominal organs. I'm guessing it was a stomach virus, but if so it was the worst I've ever had - and I've had several before. I'm still sore, achy and queasy and that was Thursday when it hit me.

I did find out something though - crowds at Disney part like the Red Sea for someone in a wheelchair! I might use that trick to get around the part easier more often. Though my husband might not think he needs that much exercise pushing the chair again. LOL!

My mom has officially been kicked out. And in the process she took my modem three days after i paid the internet bill and my router power cord. she is mad at me for being upset since i spent $40 i really needed on something i can't use now. And then she lashed out on my in laws on Facebook. I'm beyond done with her.
And on another note, i now have to move out by the 27th and all of the apartments in my area are full. so now I'm mad AND stressed.

Aww, I'm so sorry Kae. I know how hard family problems can be!! And...far be it from me to disparage anyone else's parents/grandparents/in-laws/whatever, but...your mother sounds like she's into nosing into your finances. As long as you can support your own family and dependents does it really matter, that $40? Ack. I'm trying to say I understand without stepping on a huge minefield. Family problems are a field of 'em. So just know I'm sorry you're having problems!

Well i don't have any kids yet and my husband leaves for basic on the 25th of this month. Neither of us have money and we have very little time to get me into am apartment so I'll have a place to live while he is gone. I could have used the $40 towards the down payment assuming i can find a place.
And my mom is not making this any easier x___x

Being sick on vacation is the worst. At least you found a positive spin. I'm still sorry it happened to you. :/ I know it's been going around here in Memphis. I caught some sort of stomach virus a few weeks ago and so did my boss and one of my coworker's husbands this week.

I've not heard what the outcome of the situation is. I rent a house from the university I work for like a lot of the professors/grad students, but they're not the best land lords in the world. They actually aren't open until Monday so it may be until then before I am actually able to get anything done about it. Thank goodness my boyfriend knew to move y jewelry to where he could watch it. I am going to have to take stock of everything when I get back and make sure they didn't leave with anything else. Right now any calls for after hours are forwarded right to the police... which kind of weirds me out.

Worst comes to worst, check Craig's List for "Rooms to Rent." And make sure you get one with a lock on the door if you go that route.

Well, we were getting a big IRS refund, but when I checked on it, it shows they decided to take half of it to pay off the amount we owed from 2011 and were paying on monthly. The biggest suck part is that we were going to use it to pay off the 2012 amount we owed them and haven't filed yet. So now we need to take most of it to pay part of the 2012 and have to ask to make payment on the rest. End result is still a monthly payment. Sheesh.

The DH says I can still buy the 2 dolls I want, but one is no longer available individually. I'd have to buy a 2 doll/2outfit set to get her. Drat! The payment is due to be deposited sometime in the next week, but there are only 2 left of the doll set so they may not be available by that time anyway. It's just never easy.

I just wrote to my gramma after about a year and a half. My mom had been bothering me to do it because, this year, I did not get a check from her at christmas time. I figured that she had just written me off. It turns out that was not the case. My dad had sent me a check for christmas and said he hoped I was well. I had thought it was odd because it was so timely; usually I didn't even receive a card from him till well after my birthday or well after christmas... like months. Well it turns out that my gramma can't write as well as she used to, so she had sent the money she had intended for her grandkids to their parents. My dad is the oldest of 9. I am his oldest child and my mom's only child. Well it turns out he had sent the money from my grandmother and made me believe it was from him. I'm not greedy, don't think it's about the money. I used most of it to get my kid some things and then the rest on gas. I thought that he actually had thought about me, all on his own, without any reminders, and sent me something with the sole purpose of making me have a happy holiday, or a happy day... really what he did was he twisted someone else's gift and made it so that I was afraid to talk to any of them. I thought I had done something wrong to my gramma, or that something had happened. Nope... it was just him. To be honest I'm afraid to talk to him. The conversation is always so awkward and he is always talking about the latest thing he is into. He thought I was doing well and tried to sell me in on a pyramid scheme. He kept saying, it's only 10,000 dollars honey. He made me so stressed I lost touch with my gramma who only ever loved me and wanted me to be happy. I swear I wish I was immaculately conceived. I don't even look anything like him. I know I'm wining and I usually don't say anything at all... but this sux and I have found that you guys are so much more understanding and empathetic than just about any other people out there. Why are dads so dumb!

I'm at home sick. The weather is so hot and dry here that a small fire started in my neighbour's outdoor plant. Thankfully some passerby went door to door to seek help. My neighbor wasn't home but me and some folks managed to put out the fire before it got any bigger and burn upslope to my place.
