SOMEONE RENT TO ME!

There… I feel better now.

Our landlord showed the house last night. It was a surprisingly painless experience, except that she doesn’t know about Voodoo so we were trying to get the cats to hide. You know canned air? Yes, perfect Kitty pisser-offer. They didn’t come out of their hiding spots for a while. The landlord seemed really interested in what we were going on to do once we moved. She’s strangely bipolar – super friendly in once instance, and a raging douche bag in the next. I will miss her contradictory ways, though. It was strangely comforting. And when things broke, like the leaky ceiling, it was kind of fun to watch her freak out a bit and scramble. I am easily amused.

We applied for an apartment (did I mention that before?) and I am going to apply for a second one as well. It’s a 3 bedroom townhouse with wood floors. No porch though, and a laundry “facility.” When I talked to my sister, I finally understood that compromise is not a bad thing. I need to be flexible. I can save my birdfeeder, or give it to Anne (along with 25 dollars worth of frackin bird food). A house is my home in as long as I allow it to be. My attachment to the Nebraska Street house, aside from all its quirks, is because I settled into being D’s partner, building our lives, and become the super-dorky couple we are today.

The hunt continues. It’s all I can do right now. Other things are pressing harder on my psyche right now, such as my last day of work and the trip to Seton Hill. I will be relieved when Friday comes. No more drama. And then I fly out the following week. Meanwhile, I need to get the truck straightened out and a place to live. They won’t deliver our shit to a nonexistant address. I don’t blame them. It’s good to have an end point.

  • I didn’t get to see Ocean’s 13 this weekend. Perhaps I will do it this weekend.
  • I need to get all of my donations off to my friends so I can start cleaning in earnest.
  • We took Pip for his shots the other night. Sheesh, its gotten expensive.
  • We are at the point where buying groceries is kind of silly. I will have frozen veggies, fruit, and vegetarian dinners to give away. Oh, and pickles. I love pickles, but I don’t think I can eat a whole jar without getting sick. Pickle burps — imagine it and then tell me I’m wrong.
  • I used to drink pickle juice as a kid. :) Is that weird?
  • My birthdaughter likes to shop. That scares me.
  • My sister is the master of the universe. So is Cat. Together, they could rule this country… .It’s TRUE!
  • I will be glad when we won’t accidentally run into people associated with less stellar moments in our life.
  • This 1212121% humidity is just fucking annoying.
  • I already miss my cardinals and the woodpecker.
  • I am going to press some Seemore leaves before I go. I can take a part of him with me.

    The humidity here is killing me too; Florida, I swear. I bet it’s better in Portland.

    E – an apartment is not a forever thing… It is easy to get attached to the house, because you and D made it your home (this you know already).
    Look at it this way you are going to dwell in this apartment temporarily. It gives you the opportunity to actually get out there and find a house that you want and potentially purchase one…instead of renting forever!
    I am going to miss your wackiness!
    When do you actually leave?

    ok, holy shite! I used to drink pickle juice, as well until my mom caught me and told me I would die if I drank it like that ever again.

    Hollie – we leave on the morning of the 30th :)
    Anne – this weekend? It’s our last full weekend
    Cat – ROFL! That’s an odd coincidence.
