This is the smallest of small potatoes, but it looks like the ONE venue we've found (out of dozens!) that could accommodate our wedding within our budget is ghosting us. It'll all be fine in the end, of course, but I'm pissed and sad and taking a moment to publicly mope.

Lots of folks say they're "parents" to pets & there's definitely overlap in how those relationships feel.
Maybe it's because she's older, maybe it's because her primary moods are "aloof," "grumpy" & "yelling," but V has always felt more like a deeply aggrieved roommate to me.
