Oh man, le nubian. You will make it through! And you may not find an ideal place to live, but you will find some place, and it will be temporary. (One year is temporary.)
omg that dress is so cute. did you find someone for the other dress?
Sold it on eBay! For more than I paid for it, but less than I had with it in the closet. Also sold that black dress with the pink taffeta underskirt, when I remembered I wore it for NYE 1999.
Obviously, hanging in your closet it would take up space and is the cost of mailing it really more than the amt you'd get back from the store?
No, I'd get more back, but on principle! I hate spending $7 or whatever to not have it.
That dress is super cute. Now I want one.
Housing~ma, le_n. And get-through-it ~ma for the rest.
Ugh le nubian, what a clusterfuck! Sending you much serenity~ma.
Ack, le nubian. That's a heaping load of stress. I hope you can get through it as well as possible. House-finding ~ma, at the very least.
Jesse, I'd return it and get it in the right size, but I do most of shopping online, and I'm impatient and want to wear things RIGHT AWAY. Which is not to say that you can't lose the 5-10 lbs. necessary, but. New! Dress!
I know a size up would be too big. And it took months to get here, so no immediate gratification either way. Eh, OK, I'll send it back. BAH.
IO9 "upgraded" their software today. This is the longest I've gone on a workday without visiting in quite some time.
But the morning developer call was exhausting, and I have to be on another one in half an hour, and I WANT TO LIE DOWN. The world, man. What's wrong with it?
what I want to do for lunch:
lay down in an empty office for 30 min. then go get a smoothie.
what I will do for lunch:
set up lunch for a training group in another building and clear their breakfast stuff, then go get drive-thru lunch for a different meeting, deliver it and then go get my smoothie and work through lunch so I can leave at 4.
VBS is fun, but 7am - 8:30pm work days are too much, even with an hour and a half of that being drive time. Friday I will be in bed by 7pm and Saturday I will sleep late late late.
Any googling for rentals you can farm out to us, le nubian?
Happy birthday, JZ!
eta: If you need another set of eyes on the paper, I am a slacker almost-PhD, otherwise known as an ABD.

And yesterday every thread I visited on Jezebel said "Discussion now closed".
