Happy birthday, Sean!
Though I must stand up for the people I know who've stated they've seen ghosts and/or the boogeyman--I wouldn't characterise them as having "a primitive and superstitious understanding of the world" or being "bug fuck crazy" and I don't think you'd peg them like that right off the bat either.
ER visit ran way too late, and as a result I'm in no shape to get to the office this morning. But I'm logged in and working.
Congratulations on your weight loss, Allyson.
I love that they have two brand-new names for studio apartments! Although they are pretty big.
Did you notice that in the "gallery" apartments, there's a curving partition that you can close off the bed with? (Leaving an oval-shaped bedroom.)
That building is lovely but you could not pay me enough to live there. Doesn't it look like a hotel from Dubai?

Thank you for saying that, ita.
It does look very Dubai-esque.

Yeah you note that when I posted it I was bemused by the "monster in the closet thing" not the ghost part. Thinking the monster in the closet was real after you are grown strikes me as a little odd. And I'm wondering if people misunderstanding the question (did you see a monster in the closet as a kid vs. do you still believe it is real) or were screwing with the pollsters.

Gracious, if I discounted everyone who has had paranormal experiences or ideas, I'd have no practice at all. And, for the record, only 2 out of 8 years worth of clients were actually bug-fuck crazy.
That building looks like a drill bit to me. I doubt that is what the architect wants to hear.
My first thought, looking at the building site was "Cool cgi...wait, is that LOTR music?" The second thought was a billboard on the most adjacent thoroughfare crowing, "Screw YOU, I'm already home!"
I just found the phrasing "the monster in the closet" oddly specific to childhood, whereas the boogeyman is not. Hence my question about whether the sighting only counts if it's in the closet.
