Aaaugh. We caught Ruthven marking the (thankfully empty!) shelf again. All the cats are banished downstairs as we are now moving furniture and cleaning. Later, I get to put ALL THE VAMPIRE BOOKS back in their bookcase. And maybe cull some of them.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Ick, Jilli. That sounds like no fun at all. I hope you can find a way to curb the behavior soon.
Bitca real estate agent (for the seller) is continuing to be a bitca. She did not respond full to every point we made in the counter offer, used vague language for those answers she did give, and once again did not provide my real estate agent with the phone call he asked her to make as a courtesy. She continues to act like it is a sellers market and how dare we ask for anything. I think my real estate agent and TCG are feeling like we should walk away and look into our other option. I am just really tired of this whole process. Plus, there is the added stress that by the end of this month we are supposed to tell our landlord whether we are going to renew our lease or leave by the 1st of May. At this point we're probably going to have to ask him to allow us to go month to month, and we have no idea how he is going to react to that. Things have not been good here lately, and he may be hoping he can just find other tenants who don't complain about the upstairs tenants so much. t /brain dump
Sorry to be so meme about all the house hunting stuff.

I hope Xusha heals up quickly, smonster, and that you find the Zantac helpful.

Because books.

If that's his attitude, he's got a problem. He should be working on getting them out, and finding more good tenants like you and TCG.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
So that's over.
Thank you everyone for the virtual hugs. They were absolutely needed. Hardest thing I've ever had to do.

He is trying but it is not easy to do apparently. He stood a chance when they weren't paying their rent, but they caught up a while back.

One more wretched passage over.

Extra hugs to you, Maria. All the hugs you need.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Oh, Maria. Welcome back my love. Wish I could give you hugs in person.
Thanks, Calli - she's on painkillers for the weekend and seems to be doing a little better. If she doesn't keep improving, she may need an xray on Wednesday.
Zantac is helping a bit. Probably need to go on some kind of low acid diet, and get back into yoga like I keep meaning to.

I'll hug her extra for y'all. She may have to shoo me off.
