'Safe'
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.
yep to TX. It may not come to pass, but as the asst. in the department I know what numbers of staff we have to get to by 2010. If things don't change this spring, I am not sure how they get to the numbers without me losing my job, or my job becoming well over 100% more than I signed on for.
what is Remington? did I send you something scary?
I do think this one is a hell no: [link]
This one's been on the market a suspicious while, but the cheery bathroom charms me: [link]
AACK! Scary basement: [link] plus if it is the layout I know, not much bigger than my apartment.
Remington borders Hampden (south of it) and parts are pretty ok, parts I'm iffier on. Think near that PaperMoon Diner I think I took you to.
Ground Control to Major Tom is not a good car commercial song.

Totally. I keep hearing the end of the song...
Tell my wife I love her very much (she knows!)
Ground Control to Major Tom
Your circuit’s dead, there’s something wrong
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
I'll leave out the rest of the lyrics about floating in his tin can above the moon and there's nothing he can do.
EXACTLY. I love the song for its bleakness, but sheesh, I don't want to associate it with my metal creampuff deathmachine.
OK, so NOW I am mindfucking how I'll be sure on a house. Cars? I go practical and good enough and reliable. Apartments? The one with the most space, light and no wall-to-wall carpetting. House? Oh holy hell. I'm just sort of overwhelmed.
I know this is all FWP. But I don't do money stuff gracefully.
Stupid, motherfucking, miserable, scum sucking, sub-human, oxygen wasting, arrogant assholes who wouldn't know quality if it came up and bit them on their no doubt considerable and quite cellulite-ridden ASSES!
ARGH.
Poor Barb.
As an antidote, I'd like to say lisah rocks. She gave me names of a couple of petsitters, and so while I can't finalize with one or the other until I know where the fuck I'll be living in July, I feel like I have bases covered for the catzen. I just wish I could pull the trigger because I hate being all "maybe I'll hire you" for so long, but that's life.
Sara, I have no good advice for buying a house, but if the place is structurally sound, feels like you could live there, and you can afford it? Seems like a pretty good start.
