SHOES COME FROM IT! Shoes = Good.
GRUMP. I just opened up the plastic page protectors which I will be required to use in my portfolio, and... they're attached to each other. What the what? Why would I want that? If I'm putting papers in a three-ring binder, what purpose could there be to not being able to have each page lie flat?
Pretty shoes.
Crazy page protectors.
I certainly hope poor Katie doesn't suffer from PPD.
No joke. Marrying Tom is bad enough...

Well, it looks like I finally found my new apartment, and only 12 days before I want to move! They're running the credit check in the morning, so I won't know until then what the exact amount of the deposit is going to be.
Good things are that the complex is only five miles from work (gas and insurance costs are going to plummet!), as opposed to the current 35, it has a pool and tennis courts, and a window a/c unit and ceiling fans in the dining room (and I can have them install one in the bedroom with no issues from management). Bad things are that all the utilities are electric (no more free heat) and the window unit is damn old, and my parents will probably give me some grief over the residents (looks like majority Hispanic, like the first place I lived 13 years ago which had gang issues and knifings in the outer buildings, but this complex is more families and less bored young men from what I saw driving around at 5:00 this afternoon, which is what I'll tell the 'rents, who can be a tad conservative when it comes to racial makeup of neighbors).
When I called about the place yesterday, and told them that my credit rating might be a bit iffy, but I've been with my company for more than 13 years and at my last two apartments for five years each, they were falling all over me to come in and apply. ChiKat told me last fall that most landlords love single professional women approaching middle age because they're the most reliable tenants to have, and these people definitely want me (they've already eliminated the $300 cat deposit and the $35 credit check fee even before doing the credit check).
I certainly hope poor Katie doesn't suffer from PPD.
If she does, she'll probably have to do it silently.
That's great, Kathy! Congrats.
I cannot imagine what labor as a silent procedure could be.
