'Get It Done'
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.
I can't take the summers here anymore either. I think I'm supposed to be in the Pacific Northwest.
Oh, goodness, me too. Every time I'm there, I feel like I should stay. But I can't leave my sister! Which is something that, 15 years ago, I couldn't imagine myself ever saying. I guess it's a good thing, that we're close again. Dammit.
It was white, square, and it looked like a tooth.

It is so frightening how few homes we have seen suit our purposes. This feels like extreme goldilocks: too dirty, too big, too small, neighborhood is sketchy, too far away from work, getting stood up by realtors. We have two possibilities right now (neither of which is ideal) and we are resting our hopes on a secret property that only the realtor knows about that we will see
That was me a month ago. Now I'm just swamped with boxes and trying to sell two different beds and a corner shelf unit and working. Blargh. Work.
Good luck with housing Jesse and Le Nubian! Such a pain it can be, but luckily none of the places I've ever lived has been as bad as NYC or Boston or SF for finding places.
Ginger all the cool kids move to the PNW.
I was thinking about it before this latest blow to my finances. Maybe someday...
Happy Birthday, JZ!
Le Nubian, all good grace to you in your househunt, too. A perfect jewel, beautifully kept, just reluctantly vacated for excellent reasons having nothing to do with real estate, with just a few more or just a bare fewer amenities than you ideally need, for just a little more or just a little less than you're prepared to pay, in a good neighborhood, with a decent commute.
Cindy! *tickles*
Past couple of work weeks have made me so cranky. I'd like to get out of reactive mode from things thrust on us by fiat, rather than reasonable expectations.
Oh, I heard back from Stephanie. She and the kids are on vacation away from Colorado Springs and they do indeed live south of the danger area.

OOh, that's what I want! Although I don't expect a jewel.
