I'm at work. mac watching videos on my laptop from home. I am running a kagillion reports - my first time doing them, no one else in the office does them and since I do not fuly understand how to do it I am convinced I am doing them the most labor intensive way possible. this will take hours.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
megan, msbelle forwarded your message, thanks!
I got a call from the other neighbor! She too was thrilled with the note, so man, that was a good call. She moved in 4 years ago, also as a first time buyer and "I didn't have a clue!" So she'll be a great resource. She and the guy I got the email from chatted about getting them. Hee! They're really happy someone is trying to buy it. She loves the hood. Apparently a fair number of single folks, interestingly. She seemed really nice and has aid to give her a call and arrange to come over for coffee or something some night to chat.
Please, please let the inspection not turn up insane demonic troll elves, just doable stuff.
And cheap(ish)?
$10/hour per dude, so yes.
Good luck to you and your mom, Theo.
Opening last night went well. Now I'm off to see the show I couldn't design because of conflicting schedules.
Moving out of one walk-up and into another made the movers worth every penny. They were kind of assholes about the stairs, but they didn't break anything so I called it a win.
ION, the Bronx Zoo has a baby tree kangaroo!

I am so sick of searching for jobs. Feel trapped.
Ugh. That's the worst. Sorry.
I can't stop watching Jon and Kate Plus Eight. I like them.
I (perhaps stupidly) went to brunch this morning, because I was feeling less like death. I had to stop on the way to get more Kleenex. And I coughed for a solid 20 minutes while we were waiting for a table.
But I did get to see people, and pass my phone around with a bizarre Facebook message from some dude I barely knew in high school, who "always hated how we lost touch". (Me: "Dude, we didn't lose touch; we were never IN TOUCH.")
I'm still feverish, so I think I shall spend the rest of the day watching TV.

Oooh I HATE them! Total Bickersons. I am a little obsessed with the controversy about them (about the dad getting fired, and them exploiting the kids, and "firing" the sister in law who baby sat because TLC wanted to give her money).
I am so ready for bed! I did a 5K with friends midday and then we went to an Irish pub for beers and much pub food and then had cake and baileys&coffee at friends' house. But I should stay up for a couple more hours I guess. I did put a load of laundry in at least so not a total waste.
