Sean, let's say tomorrow. We can find a little time for some Guitar Hero II as well. Also, hop on IM if you have a sec.
Now, this would be the perfect time for a swear word.

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

{{{LAistas}}} It's so hard when a friend moves far away. Much ~ma to all of you.
I put a call into my lawyer a little while ago. He wasn't there, but I mostly just want to see what advice he has. He's a family friend and won't charge me for the advice.

Good for you, sj. I'm not a lawyer, and all that, but it just seems like even if she could have not rented to you without giving a reason, since she did give a reason, and it's protected, you should have a case. Anyway, I hope that's what the lawyer says.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm very glad you have a friendly lawyer to advise you, sj. I want evil landlady to suffer or at least now that she is WRONG WRONG WRONG, but I don't want you to have to suffer to make any impact.

sj, that situation is ridiculous. If the agent who took you to see the place is any kind of professional, I can't see why they'd continue doing business with that landlady. It would put them in danger of a lawsuit, for going along with her prejudices, and if they agree with her it cuts down on the number of people they can market to. Unless there's a personal relationship between the agent and the landlady, I can't understand any reputable company doing business with her.

I agree with you Toddson, but I'm not going to push that issue until he gets us an apartment, hopefully tonight.

The answer to Sean & ND's glumitude is simple; move to Seattle!
No, really.

You're very welcome, tommy. It will work itself out. DTW is one of the only airports that I feel comfortable saying you may actually make your connection given 30 minutes or less.
Allergy cocktails that work are the best cocktail party evah.
Oh yes indeedy. Now I just have to make the trees stop with the sex and I can go back to my preferred cocktail--the dirty martini.

That teleporter really needs to get finished. I need to spend more time visit people that are scattered hither and yon.
