In which I moan about crankiness and $evil_project and in which I talk about Family of Origin and critters. Including a dead critter which I've gotten to know quite well.

so i go to get a drink of water and notice there's some splashes in front of the sink, so i'm like, meh, water, whatever, i can step in that, so i step on it and am like, 'wtf, mate, this is oil!' why on earth is there a large oil spill in front of the sink? and why wasn't it cleaned up?! well, the answer can be guessed: no paper towels or anything like that around. it happens. it's not so much that it was left uncleaned, that's understandable, but how does that much oil get spilled?
