You gotta come down for brunch/lunch whatever and bring the pooch. We'll giggle and talk about baby-prepping her...though you probably have all that info...I just want to chat with YOU!
We do have some general information, but we may employ you to crack down on us w/r/t her leash walking. We'll be at Chateau A. this Saturday with another friend.
And I have to confess that Zoom seems like the coolest name, nick or otherwise.
If you tell my DH this, I will kill you.
Congrats Sparky! How wonderful!
yay Sparky!!!!!!!!!!!!
and yay! vw for handling things well. Seriously, it means you weren't not getting what you needed.

Most excellent.
Out of respect for you as a human being and out of sure certainty that you could kick my ass, I will not mention my love of the name Zoom. But I want you to know that it will be a great sacrifice on my part.
And yeah, let's do a leash clinic soonish. Better now than when you are negotiating uneven sidewalks with a stroller, diaper bag and hot Starbuck's cup. It will make it easier on you and less of a wrench for the Sass if she's not adjusting to a new habit AND a squirmy, attention-sucking interloper.

You shouldn't call my husband names like that. Even if true.
hee!
Also a fair way to phrase it, Trudy.
Yours was a whole lot nicer. I often get to "I CAN'T BE NICE TO THIS IDIOT" all too quickly.
Next time I'll call you, Fred Pete.
I'm serious. Debetesse could use a break.
Also, the commenters seemed to be assuming that these were black-hat Orthodox. If there's only the one Orthodox family living in the building, then it's a fairly good chance they're not black-hat.
There seemed to be a pervading sense that unless they were black jews how would you POSSIBLY know they were Orthodox? Apparently, not only do New Yorkers not know their neighbors, we are as unaware of what a kippah, a mezuzzah, or a person CLIMBING STAIRS ON THE WEEKEND looks like.
Of course, the commentators also thought that no burgler would ever wear a disguise and that its DEEPLY paranoid to not let strangers into an apartment building.
Do those people live in the evil mirror-universe New York where there are no Jews?

Dude, I live in Seattle, where there are very few people who are of the people, I'm not Jewish, and *I* could probably tell you which of my co-workers are secular, Reform, Conservative, or Orthodox. (Okay, so right now the latter is "Just that one guy who plays ping-pong sometimes." But still.)
