Dana, I found a desk like that (apparently they're called secretaries?) on Craigslist for $30.
Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yeah, I've been paging through CL too. It's just a ton of stuff to sort through, and people with furniture are just as likely to be an hour away as they are to be close.

Because books.
Go bear cubs, choose bear cubs.
That's a very cool desk, Dana.

Also, I have a combination of "we sold a house" and "it was my birthday!" materialistic blood lust.

Oh, people, I want this house: [link]

I woke up with a headache, but now it's building to a migraine. Come on, brain! I only need to hang in there two more hours and then we can jet.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ooh, that's a good one, flea.
You should have a secretary, Dana.

Pretty house, flea. Any chance they'd negotiate?

I think it is well-priced. In the current market my main hope is it doesn't go under contract before we can see it.
I am frantically doing math and self-justification, while I wait to see if we can see it tonight.

Fingers crossed, flea!
