I am horrendously spoiled. I’ve managed to get through the day despite on-the-fritz broadband, but mostly it served to remind me how horrendously spoiled I am.
Not to mention paying a thousand bucks in dentistry last month (Kaiser dental sucks) plus choral-society dues (which aren’t small), ending up six hundred fifty in the hole for the month, and basically not having it matter.
That is spoiled. Absolutely spoiled rotten. May I never forget it.

He querido más vivir en mi pequeña casa, exenta y señora, que no en sus ricos palacios, sojuzgada y cativa.
—Fernando de Rojas, La Celestina
(I prefer living in my little house, free and my own mistress, to living in their rich palaces, downtrodden and wretched.)
