Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

I know this is all FWP. But I don't do money stuff gracefully.

“Not dead yet!”

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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.

And I don't hate the basement. I have a loathing/fear of basements.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Choose the neighborhood as well as the house. You want the worst house in the best neighborhood, since you can fix the house but not the area.

Yeah, I'm pretty much sticking to particular neighborhoods I mostly know.

Also, that one that's been on the market a while looked pretty small, so possibly perfect for you, but not for a lot of folks. So that's something to your advantage, possibly.

OK, I don't know if this is because it's Fox, or because it's NYC, but the breaking news at the top of the local news is a picture of Rhianna. Seriously?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I need a martini.

Emmett made her a martini. With three olives.

Now we're watching Matilda's video choice "the bear" (aka, The Jungle Book) and everybody is fed.
