welp, i get the award for the world's biggest dufus.

[mopinko]

i had a fire in my house last night. pretty big 1. AAAND i have no insurance, i may just need to sell it as is.
i’m a stupid smoker. the fire fell of a cig, into a pile of clothes. now here’s where it gets rly dumb. i thought i had snuffed it out, but i didnt.
i’d had a week of shit sleep, to the point i was stupid tired. just wanted to get to bed.
was woken up at 2am by a screaming neighbor. i’m kinda in shock. i’m fine, dogs r fine, parrots even fine.
just want to get some sleep, but cant. dealing w board up and clean up ppl.
i’m staying at my 2flat, in my short term unit. 2nd flr unit is vacant atm, and will prolly stay there for a while. my biggest problem is my dogs. they hate each other and i’d been managing them upstairs dog/ downstairs dog. i cant do that in an apt.
i need to find a temporary home for 1 of them. maybe permanent if i decide to sell the house.
add to all that back pain that refuses to go away.
jesus i’m fucked.

1. Times like these prepare us for better days.

Perhaps even the end of our current leader?
I had a short time marriage that about destroyed me. Survived it and met my angle.
Hang in there and best of luck my friend.

So sorry for your predicament. 🙏🏻

3. Oh geeze!

SO sorry that happened!

Is that the house with the awesome kitchen? I hate the idea that you might not be able to stay there.

Here's hoping something works out for you so that it doesn't mean you lose your home.

[mopinko]

5. yes it is.

part of me is ready to move on, part of me can't imagine.

[2naSalit]

8. Well...

I hope for the best outcome for you! Whatever that may be!

[femmedem]

4. Gosh, that's a lot. But please be kind to yourself. You were sleep-deprived.

That doesn't make you stupid, just human.

Yes, this is a setback. A hard one. But my god, I'm glad you and your dogs and your parrot all survived.

[mopinko]

10. u need a dog?

[ProfessorGAC]

11. I'll Ask Around

What kind of dog? The rescue types at the dog park will want to know.

12. a half great pyrennese,

i think he’s 8. a real cupcake of a dog. 100 lbs. pretty low maintenance, except for the hair.. but at least he doesnt have the full gp coat. a bit reactive, after his bs sister’s attacks. but he is interested in other dogs. if they’re on fb, i can send a pic.

eta, shelter puppy.

if i decide to repair/stay in the house, i’ll happily keep my bully dog. love her to death, my super snuggle bug. but if i end up in an apt… i’m feeling older than i am.

15. Good luck with it all. (n/t)
