She wants to live in a studio, and she doesn't know where the job is located.
Natter 64: Yes, we still need you
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.
It's entirely possible to live car free in Seattle, depending on where she ends up working/living. Also entirely possible to have a studio under $1000, even in popular neighborhoods.
I am pretty sure families of four live on $38,000 a year in Seattle. It all depends on what your priorities are.
Difficult, however. And usually not without aid. (For which, it being at around the twice the federal poverty level cut off for a family of four, the theoretical family would qualify.)
I am just feeling grumpy about privilege.
My condolences, Fred.
I'm eating an avocado for dinner. Sometimes I wonder about my choices.
I still love being able to throw in a load of laundry on a whim.
I was 500 post behind when I got in here! So I've skipped ahead before I go back and catch up to ask for a hive-mind favor!
I have a baby shower next Sunday for a niece and she and her hubs announce a couple of months ago that they intend to raise their daughter as a Pirate!
So I'm putting together a Pirate Baby Book for her. I want to make a treasure map with a picture of my niece as the "island" where the treasure is buried, on a flap that reveals one of her sonagram pics. Then after the baby is born they can replace the picture with a new one.
What I need help with are the names of locations on the map. I want to create pregnancy milestone/pirate names for places. But, I can't come up with anything.
You guys are the most inventive, articulate, creative and funny people I know, so any suggestions would be very much appreciated!
Now, back to catch up!
First Steps (off the plank)
::not really here::
You want *pregnancy* milestones, quester? I'm not sure there are a lot that are catchy, you know? Except maybe, like, Hemorrhoid Hill or something.
Other milestones are hearing the baby's heartbeat, sonogram pictures, discovering the sex. Most of the other ones take place in utero, really.
Baby's first kick?
Oooh, good one. Also if the baby has the hiccups. First contraction, too, I guess.
