Congratulations! That's fantastic.
You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other till it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Yay, officialdom! Yay, for encouraging next stages!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Yay for official job offer! Moving is so exciting.
I had put an ad on Freecycle asking for old, unwanted, or broken toys, because I use them in dioramas and art projects, and it occurred to me that I could maybe get some cool stuff for free that way. One person responded, and I picked up here bag today. Among the expected bag o' crap were three lovely seashells, a pretty ceramic cat, a nice ceramic toad (it's good luck to find a toad!), two little plastic tigers, and a classic Breyer horse, all in perfect condition, and a model airplane from Smithsonian that looks like it has all the parts. I call that successful scavenging.

I got the official job offer.
Yay! Best of luck apartment hunting. I know how hard it is to find a good place when accessibility is an issue, and I hope you find something perfect and soon.

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
Woo hoo Hil!
Lots and lots of ~ma and love to those who need it. I've been keeping up as best I can, but it's a losing battle this month.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I've braved the dreaded phone and made some calls to rental agents, because no one is answering emails. Left two messages. I'll see if they respond to those.
Also, one apartment posted on craigslist that looks really good, and I've emailed twice, with no answer, and the ad doesn't have a phone number. They've re-posted the ad several times, though. Weird.

Thrive to spite them
Hil glad the job is official. Hope people get back to you soon.
I had therapy. Probably a mistake on my birthday. Also a my be mistake agreeing to a late lunch with Will. I was planning on treating myself to some place on Church st and Will and I had miscommunications because that seems to be my thing lately.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Happy birthday, askye! I hope the day turns out better than you expect.
Good luck apartment hunting, Hil!

OK, I now have appointments to see three apartments, and three more people who are supposed to call me back. One of them seems a little sketchy -- it's in a really nice-looking building two blocks from Hyde Park Square, which seems like a nice neighborhood, but it's a basement apartment, so I'm not sure. But I'll look at it and see.
