I just got back from the final walk-through before really truly finally honest-to-doG signing my life away and buying our pretty house tomorrow morning. If I'm too exhausted to show up at the closing can I just phone in?
No, sweetie. They need to prick your finger, and draw blood, to use as ink. Remember? Also, there's that pesky receipt for the microwave plate. I wonder if you could trick them with the receipt you got for S.
Yeah, I’ve pretty much decided that I’m going to call and try to reason with her. She’s trying…or at least she *looks* like she’s trying. So, I’m gonna give her the benefit of the doubt. I’ll let you all know how it goes, as I’m going to call her soon.
I know that was my comment, but I do think Vortex made a good point about not saying part of what I suggested, which was: "I'd really prefer the 24 hours we're allowed, but try to be generous in that regard when I can."
I think Vortex was right on that, and if you mention that, it should be stronger, like, "We expect the 24 hour notice we're allowed," or something. It doesn't have to be said confrontationally.
In looking around for possible furnished places in the SF area, I found this:
"FEMALE ONLY PLEASE (this is not a sexually oriented ad )"
Good to know that option's out there. Er.
PLUS you pay $350 for the privilege.
Seattle, here we come!!!!!
I don't have details yet, but we will be in Seattle the first week of August!
That ad rules, Emily.
I'm not sure those are the words I would have chosen, but, well, whatever floats your boat.
Maybe you should contact him PC...
"I'm straight - hens my request for a female roommate, because of the single bedroom situation. ... No worries.....I'm just not that kind'a guy."
What the heck kind'a guy is he?
Huh. Well, if you color your map that way...

Wow. It's like a whole new world. Without Puritans!
ETA: Please tell me I'm not the only one who finds that map a little... weird.
