Very nice apartment, vw.

Very nice apartment, vw. I love the built in china cabinet. I love built in just about anything. My brain says that it's less flexible and not a good idea, but then the rest of me squees and tells my brain to shut up.
JZ, it always amazes me how some people, usually but not always older people and usually but not always men, can make me jump through hoops to make their comments innocuous, even as my skin is crawling from the squick. Fortunately, this doesn't seem to happen often. It sounds like you handled it beautifully, no surprise. I'm impressed with your ability to keep them to yourself. Truly. Very impressed.

Mostly lurking...
Thanks, everyone! I'm very excited.
I too love the built-in china cabinet. LOTS AND LOTS. It was one of the things on my wish list that I thought was a ridiculous item. So, it feels like an extra treat.
Now I just have to get through the credit check. I'm actually very nervous about that.

What is even happening?
Trudy, I hope Dallas is okay (and you, too) and that the money issue isn't too difficult for you. I'm so sorry you're going through this.

Lots of doggie~ma (dogma?) to Dallas.
One of my friends had a baby last week, and I went to the bris today. This baby is adorable, and so teeny! He didn't cry too much, either, and he settled down immediately once his father picked him up. And it's TOTALLY freaking me out that someone that I pretty much grew up with is now a mother.

Surgery-ma for Dallas. Trudy, I hope everything is ok.
