Beverly, that's such a true and lovely post.
YAY about the apartment, Jesse. It would make me look, though, cause I'm a fish/cut bait kind of girl.
So I asked my mom about Signing Times DVDs for Grace for Xmas. And she ordered them and emailed me a note that said, "Why wait for Christmas when you can use them now?" Those DVDs are over $200. Bless mom!
Yeah, I'll still plan to move 12/1 unless I hear something really definite about being able to stay.
Continuing the Great Magic Cards Are Actually Still Worth Something Saga:
We found the binder we thought had been stolen, containing ancient and rare cards. Our buyer went through it, chortling to himself, then made us the offer of $4300. Gleeble. Reader, we took it.
There's a new laptop waiting for me at home. We're going to pay our rent three months in advance, just 'cause we can. Hell, we may buy a car--yeah, we're not very high brow car buyers.
Gleeble. And damn it all for reinforcing Hubby's "But those will be worth something some day!" tendencies, bless the man.
I'm not going to the gym tonight, I'm gonna go home and play with my new 'puter.
I wonder if the management company is planning on telling the other tenants in your building?
ita, whenever you have a procedure to the PTU people call you back? Cause I go through this panic that they won't call every time. I should know better.
Also, threepeat? tommyrot, your first date sounds perfect. Go you!
Connie, I'm glad you guys found the cards! It really is surprising what folks will pay for Magic cards. I sold off a bunch of mine back in 2007 for around five grand.

Oh yeah, I should put a note up.
That's great, Connie!

It's kind of frightening watching this guy half my age pull a wad of hundreds out of his wallet and hand them over.
Of course, Hubby then asked if we should go home, throw it all on the bed, and roll around in it. I said no--after a moment's thought.
