"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Yay, msbelle!

Yay, Toddson!

Amy, pretty much all new construction/renovation is for "luxury" housing. And they're going to do a major overhaul of a 1929 building (which was built as luxury housing at the time - great timing, right? - but has not been well maintained). They're going to rip out walls that aren't load-bearing, redo the wiring and plumbing, put in completely new kitchens and bathrooms. It'll be nice, but I can't afford that. Since I'm leaving after many years, I'll be getting a nice buy-out ... much of which, I assume, will go to taxes, but I should be able to get some new furniture out of that.

Yay Toddson—that's great you were able to find another place!

And go msbelle, employment yes!!! And with government? That's some stability. I'm so impressed at you up and moving your life cross country twice while we've known you!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

YAY APARTMENT! YAY JOB!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

YAY CIVIL SERVICE!

Ending the week on a positive note ... at least for two of us.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm so impressed at you up and moving your life cross country twice while we've known you!

Seriously, this!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Yay, successfully re-homed Toddson!

Yay, gainfully employed msbelle!

And thanks, DC, for making rents in San Diego suddenly seem reasonable, I guess?

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

Oh, yay, Toddson! Can we get pix of decorating the new place?

WHOOP! msbelle! I'm happy as all heck for you! (Also pix as you shake the new place into shape?)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Yay Toddson! Yay msbelle!
