ION, the Blue Angels are practicing for their weekend show here. I'd forgotten about it, and they're louder here than they were at any of my previous workplaces anyway. I'm still trying to crawl back into my skin, having jumped out of it the first time they roared past.
I've seen honest faces before. They usually come attached to liars.

Spike's Bitches 36: Did I Sully Our Good Name?
[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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yay, Steph!
And if you can afford a condo in Emeryville I will be freaking jealous, because my husband and I can't afford anything bigger than a studio there.
I don't really know what I can afford. Like you said, there's all those payments and fees and big words that add up to a lot. And I don't want to feel like I have no money at all to spend on such frivolities as food and entertainment.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Yay heartbeat!
Sweet bike!
Exclamation points!!

Mostly lurking...
So, I just called and rescheduled my appointment with woman who has rescheduled me four times. She gave me shit. Twice. I'm having second thoughts about working with her.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
WHat lovely news, Stephanie, thanks for sharing it with us!
Sweet ride, Juliana. Keep the rubber side down.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I don't really know what I can afford.
I suggest sitting down with a financial advisor. Then you could work out what is comfortable for you and what you can afford.

For all your bridge falling nightmares, I give you our crumbling infrastructure.
“The American Society of Civil Engineers issues annual rankings of the state of the nation’s infrastructure and most of the grades are C and D,” said Michael O’Rourke, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.

Seriously! There's no point in buying just to own a place if you end up losing money on it. And it just might not be the right time in the market you're in.

I had to turn in a rough draft of my last paper for school on Monday. I got an email from the prof today saying that it looked good and required no changes and she awarded full points for it.
This means I am done with my classes for the summer!! I have to turn in some forms on Tuesday, but I have no work left in them. Yay!!! I think these were the easiest 6 hours of grad level classes I've ever taken. Lots of work, but none of it terribly difficult.

Okay. How would one go about doing such a thing? I know I'm supposed to find someone without a vested interest in my actually buying (a bank wants my money whether or not I can afford it, right?).
