I'm unaccountably annoyed. A friend discovered an online identity that I've been keeping relatively under wraps because I was conducting an experiment and outed me to our circle of friends. She called to crow about it, thinking it too funny and when I tried to explain I'd been doing an experiment, she ran roughshod over what I was saying with "Oh no... no excuses from you! You've been outed!"
I don't cared that she found out-- that was kind of the point of the experiment. I don't care that she told our small circle of friends. I do, however, care that she didn't listen to what I was trying to say and dismissed what she did hear as if I was trying to make up some sort of cheap excuse to cover my ass.
Eh, I'll get over it. I have a headache and I'm slightly cranky. Just needed to vent.
What are some good neighborhoods that I can look for places on Craigslist for?
I've always said that if I move to SF, I want to live in North Beach. But that's mostly because it's where all of the bars I know are (not counting the Castro, of course, but that's crazy expensive).
Tom and I are fully indulging in a fantasy that we will move to San Francisco in 2010. What are some good neighborhoods that I can look for places on Craigslist for?
You can live in my attic!

I'd be annoyed too.

North Beach ain't much cheaper. I'm liking Polk Gulch - bars are good, eating's good, and it's relatively central to everything.
Nora, Hayes Valley (Dark Garden! Absinthe! Citizen Cake!) and the Mission (Pirate supply store! Paxton Gate! Borderlands!Tons of art galleries and funky bars and rambly overcrowded bookshops!) and Cole Valley/Inner Sunset (Eos! The Booksmith! The park and the museums and Matilda!).
A friend of mine recently moved to Dogpatch and really likes it, but I haven't been to visit her yet so I don't know first hand.
I think you might like the Duboce Triangle area, Nora.
It's between the Lower Haight (Toronado) and the Castro with a big park and lots of trees.
But it really kind of depends on a variety of things and what y our priorities are. Do you want to be close to a main Muni line so you guys can work downtown? Want a neighborhood that's quiet and treelined or sunny, or you can tolerate fog if it's close to GG Park? That kind of thing.
I can lead you guys around a few spots if you like.
Hey Barb! Matilda got a package from Jacksonville today.
Can I be admitty-type lady?
I *loathe* giving Emeline a bath. Like, out of all the mom things, it's the one I hate most.
There. I'm a bad mom.
Baths stress me out, too, Aims. The kids tend to fight over bath toys and getting them out is like pulling teeth. Then there is the mess to clean up.
I admit, I don't bathe mine every night for this reason.
