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 think what my daughter's trying to say is: nyah nyah nyah nyah.

I was thinking about it before this latest blow to my finances. Maybe someday...

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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

Also, anytime I watch a show on modern astronomy, I either know by name or sight 75% of the people interviewed and have probably talked to 30% of them face to face at some point. Small, incestuous world.

Happy birthday, JZ!
In other news, on the way home from work tonight a guy called out, "I know it's hard, but try not to look so tired!"
If I hadn't been so exhausted, I would have said, "Maybe I look tired because I AM tired, motherfucker! My face is not here to look nice for you!"
