Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Someone in my apartment complex was having a pizza delivered right as I got home.

I managed not to steal it, but now I want pizza. And Donuts. And Cake.

Jen, soon you will be here and can ...share your cake! OK, we can cheer you up, too.

Yay! Actually, I think sharing my cake would have cheered me up, so win-win!

When thereabouts is moving day?


JenP - Sep 30, 2009 5:17:33 pm PDT #11674 of 30001

Well, it's looking like early/mid Nov. Which is really much sooner than I think it is. Six weeks? I'm seeing my boss tomorrow, and I'm hoping to get some more solid data re: timing. Because finding a place and actually moving - I need to get on that. Oh, god, where's the cake?

Well, if worse comes to worst, I do have a spare (cathair encrusted) bed for while you are looking. I wish I were housemate material to offer, but I'm not & I like to keep friends (especially with only one bath!)

Also? It'll be fine. There are plenty of places. I found my apt in 2 days. Hell, I found HOUSE in under a week!

Hee, you're awesome - thank you.

I am in a good situation, because I'm not on a lease, and roomie is very mellow about it all. As long as I can deal with the commute, I'm not without a place to live, but that's also making me kind of slow to act. Bel Air is an easy commute, but I won't be there permanently. I just need some definitive time frame stuff from my boss, I think. And then I will force myself to deal with the logistics of moving.

If only I could blink my eyes and have it done. I'm actually looking forward to my own place again - and being in Balto. - I just wish there were Moving Fairies to handle it all.

Just let me (& lisah) know when you want help!

The book? Mr. Boston's Bartending Guide.
