OMG, the combination of craiglist and google maps is like the coolest thing ever: [link]

Truly we live in a golden age.

And New Yorkers have both the NYC map portal and hopstop, so we can get anywhere and find anything!!!

awesome.

I am glad I double checked that map against what the interview lady told me. She directed me to a Canal street stop when Broadway/Lafayette is the closest. Crazy.

I loathe Susan; she isn't as cute as she thinks she is. In general, the characters are all over the map -- one episode Bree is sympathetic, the next she's a stone bitch. The writing is way inconsistent.

I think my hierarchy is Lynette, Susan, Bree, Edie, Gabrielle. But I don't like any of them much.

Ack! My movers that were supposed to be here this afternoon will be here in about half an hour.

There's no way I will get everything I need to done in time, so I decided to just eat breakfast and catch up here before getting to work, instead of driving myself nuts for an extra 15 minutes.

eta: I'm with msbelle: I don't watch DH anymore, but Lynette was my favorite.

Good luck with the interview, msbelle.

thanks for the wishes nice peoples. Off to a lucky BK lunch.

I loathe Susan

Heh. When I first read this I was skimming, sort of thought I was in Bitches, where I'd just made 2-3 posts, and my initial reaction was, "What did I do?"

(I don't even watch Desperate Housewives, but I've yet to run across a fictional Susan who isn't a bitch or no longer a friend of Narnia or somehow ridiculous or something.)

lynette is the character I see as most real. and even though I don't have kids , something about the everydayness of her poroblems and mistakes make it easy to identify with her. Susan , I liked at the beginning - and I think if she handled her kluttzyness with more grace- i could deal with her better. Or planned for it better. ( have an autoclub membership ( or at least carry a cell phone) , give a neighber a key, ) . gabrieel is sorta like watching a train wreck. no sympathy, but I don't hate her, 'cause I don't expect much from her. Bree is hard one for me. She suffers from the sin of self-rightousness, mixed with some major flaws. I haven't seen last night's ep, but the disrespect shown to her by her son,earned. I get really angry about her. but on the other hand she is such a characiture that I can't see her as real.

forgot Edie - who doesn't really ping me one way or the other. she seems more like a catalyst than a character

I've yet to run across a fictional Susan who isn't a bitch or no longer a friend of Narnia or somehow ridiculous or something.

The Discworld has a pretty awesome Susan.

Oh, yes. The discworld Susan kicks righteous ass.

A Susan who kicks ass? Dude. I'ma have to read those for that alone.
