I just got back from DC, where my apartment hunt was semi-productive. Any apartment-ma directed this way would be appreciated.
Mal: Well, look at this! Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Zoe: Big damn heroes, sir.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm getting the pig!
I have successfully moved into my new house, even though closing isn't until tomorrow at 9am. Seller was kind enough to let me move in early since the 3 day weekend was such the perfect time.
Closing-ma would be appreciated! Everything should be ok but you never know.
I should have my new phone line hooked up tomorrow and then I'll be back on line and on site more often after I find the keyboard, mouse, cords, etc.
Organization + me = Does not compute.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Life-ma sought - going for interview tomorrow for job in foreign parts. Think I want it, but only if it's the way forward - so I'm not so much asking for Interview-ma as for Life-ma, I think. Everything-working-out-ma. 'Cause I've got coursework I've not done and I might get done for it. Um. Probably. Um.
Shit. Feeling pretty scared, actually, so do life-ma my way.
please?

I'm employed! And, unexpectedly, I've got an office for the first time in my life.

So...the closing on my house didn't happen this morning like it was supposed to. As of now, I am waiting to find out when the re-scheduled date will be.
Of course, they couldn't tell me this until I arrived at Security Title.
Realtor: "I left a message for you at your home number."
Me: "Um, you do realize that I moved? Right? All that paperwork you had me sign that allowed me to move in prior to closing? Remember?"
Realtor: "Oh."
I can't torture her until the closing actually goes through, right? Right?

OK, going on vacation until Monday/Tuesday next week. Try not to have TOO much fun while I'm gone, OK?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Going dark grey for a while.
ETA: Combination of work and personal issues, nothing worrisome, but I won't be around much.

1) Thanks for Interview-ma - it seemed to go pretty well. Will know next week, but at least it was good experience either way.
2) Continued Life-ma sought urgently. Big'n'scary things this week.
3) ANYONE who knows anything about recruitment of elementary school teachers anywhere in the world, could you email me? Or leave a note in Bitches? Pretty please?

move out and draw fire
Thanks to everyone for the Bartleby-ma. I'm out from under Bart and LOVING my new job.
But now I need actual old-fashioned karma. State Department will decide today if I'm sane enough to go to Athens next year. They revoked my medical clearance based on a couple months of grief counseling when my father died...please use your special Buffista powers to help them make the right decision and reinstate it today. Please?

love's a dream you enter though I shake and shake and shake you
Going dark until Monday (unless, of course, I can commandeer Sean's computer for my own nefarious purposes while I'm there). Have a great weekend, everyone!
