Mmm, good afternoon. I went and paid my tab at Sin-e, because I accidentally left it and my card there when we left last night. Oh, drunk-vision. And on my way out I discovered a super fancy street fair right outside my building! I didn't know, as they'd been very quiet. Loads of nice stuff, and I picked up the most gorgeous blue brocade bag that will be hanging on my arm at the Zero 7 concert I'm going to tonight. I feel, well, if not cute, then well-accessorized.
Kaylee: So how many fell madly in love with you and wanted to take you away from all this? Inara: Just the one. I think I'm slipping.

Good thing I'm taping our intrepid band of spies: I took the "rest" part of R.I.C.E. too seriously and fell asleep in the middle of the last episode. (I woke up when the assassin killed the prince in an MI-5 safehouse!)
I know I missed something important.

The status is NOT quo.
Looks like our rent is smack dab in the middle. We're $47 less than the median, so yay. Plus, this place was literally just completely renovated, so I think we're making out even better.
YAY Sue! Good luck!

My weekends would be so much more productive if I didn't go back to bed at 7:30. But I do and then it is 10:30 or 11 and I sloth. Ah well.
Omelet then errands.

Thanks for all the good house hunting wishes. We saw 6-8 houses this afternoon, and there was one that's sticking in my head. The caveats are the neighborhood (and how to get to work from there) and that the siding is asbestos, which is apparently fine if it's in good shape, but would probably be costly to replace if it starts to break down. Here's it's MLS listing (the top floor is a total nerd hole!):

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Sue, what a cute house!
It is cute, and surpisingly large from what it looks outside. It's just further than I like from work and downtown, and I don't know how hard it is to catch buses from there. But the simple fact of the matter is that I can't afford anything that's close to downtown. If can, there's probably somethign wrong with it.

It's adorable!
OK, I'm losing my mind. Bought 2 pair underwear. Washed them with the duvet and futon cover and now one pair is awol. Checked laundryroom, checked apartment. Missing. I know I brought 2 from the store. All I can guess is it's in the duvet , but I'm not wrestling that again tonight. Hrmph.
