We'd have taken you to SGIE drinks with us if we knew you wanted to get drunk.

I absolutely hate coming home. I know it's only 9:30 p.m. on a Friday but seriously there have been strangers in my home all fucking week. I wanted a nice quiet evening to clean but no, now my cat (and my idiot brother's) and I are hiding in my room melting because the only way to get a cross flow is if I open my...

Your poor kitty and you! frown

You know you have a friend who has the inside track to every real estate listing in So. Cal, right (me!). This is a buyer's market, and if not that, there's leases and short sales to be had by the hundreds. I'm here to help if you want. smile

I found two 1br condos in Anaheim for less than $100K. Lots. The bank owned ones ask for 2% down, and you can get them to pay your closing costs, saving you several thousand.

This nice one in Tustin 2br, 2 ba 1044 sqft on level 2: $99K...not senior housing. There were 51 other listings as well.
jerawyn:
No, i checked those first, because i know your area best, and i thought you'd want to stay close. The two in Tustin look promising, because if need be you can rent out a room and take a chunk out of your mortgage.
most of the Anahiem ones were rough neighborhoods, and being a single girl, those are not very secure, as well as having poor resale value.

PM me and tell me what your budget is, so I can check the rentals for you.

Thank goodness I discovered a new episode of Venture Brothers. I've been irritated all week and this is helping me calm down.

One of the top bosses decided to change protocol but didn't feel it was important to tell anyone else, except the biggest jerk working there.

Friday night I had a great time at the absinthe party. I got to spend time with all...

Five people in my company were laid off today. Thankfully I was not one of them.

The most unfortunate part is HR started at 10 a.m. so everything for the week is fucked up. Sources said they had originally planned to do it Friday. We lost out on photos of an event tonight because the photographer assigned to it got the ax. We lost stories...

I love your new user picture!
dexter:
Love the new pic wink

It's funny, a lot of my friends keep saying that I should be flattered that I was asked to give out my number three times in one day. I think that if other people had SEEN the creeps who talked to me, they'd say otherwise. It's not flattering, it's disturbing.

And FUCK ants. The end smile

This might be a long entry so I'll try to do spoilers so you can only read what you want.

Friday ("Iron Man")

SPOILERS! (Click to view)
requiem came down Friday. We saw a late showing of "Iron Man." It was pretty good. The journalist (why is there a journalist in just about every movie?) pissed me off. We had dinner afterwards then headed home....

I think you nailed it right on the head. I totally feel like a piece of ass, and he knew that's not what I wanted. Fucking sucks.

You seriously need to find your own place and not live with children.

Despite having a really wonderful birthday (which hasn't happened since I turned 21), I'm feeling like my nerves are completely frazzled.

Thanks for the birthday wishes btw!

requiem came down Tuesday. He crashed at my place before moving onto his hotel. Wednesday he took me to a birthday breakfast and dropped me off at work. A little after noon I got a bouquet of flowers...

Aww! I'm so happy you thought your birthday was "really wonderful!" Yay!

We are only an hour away, but NY is like Cali, traffic, subways, buslines, make life difficult. You can't just move half way between.

Tell me how your parents met. Or maybe some older relatives. Basically I want to know how did people meet before the Internet? Before lives seemed so crazy busy.

Here are the ones I know:

Mom and Dad

They met square dancing. Because that's not nearly exciting enough I'll tell you how he proposed to her. They were walking along the beach, my mom's favorite...

Over a petri dish and a hotplate in microbiology choosing lab partners on their first day. They started dating and got married before they started their masters degrees in Bio Chemistry.

How are you? I've been so busy working and going insane with home life. Sorry we have been so quiet. I hope to come out to the next brunch. Take care.

Updates to shit from last time:

Bro started talking to me again. Someone slashed his tires last night. He's pretty certain he knows who did it. I think I've met the kid but whatever. He'd better not ever show up at my place.

I am sad to hear about the visibility problems with the XD. I didn't feel like I couldn't see when I test...

Doesn't matter. I wanted to be a journalist all through HS, and I'm always impressed and jealous of the people who do that sort of thing for a living.

Two weekends ago:

Had the fight with the bro
Brunch with SGOC. Had a fuckin' blast
Went car shopping with obd. The schmucks at HB Mazda are sexist. I'm still angry with them. I've decided on the XD (any comments? I'm looking at you stiles).

stiles:
The Xd has a nicer interior and more useful power than the Xa it replaces, and the instruments are finally in the right place. It does have large-ish blind spots from the thick c-pillars.

I'd probably spend the 400 bucks for the uprated stereo but pass on the hideously expensive nav system.

It seems like a good choice overall.
breezey:
I went to a Kia dealership in Victorville, first they let me test drive a Sportage that was sooo out of alignment they shouldn't have let anyone see it and second the salesman was telling my sister and I about the places we could put our lipstick and the mirrors on the inside. Needless to say I will never ever buy a Kia based on that experience (even if the car had been perfect). I don't like the xd that much I prefer the xa but mostly that's because it doesn't have as many (or nearly any) blind spots and I'm kinda obsessive about that, but hurray for getting a new car!
