No idea. That's insane. Plus I made it very clear that I have cats before I even looked at the apartment. Grrrrr.

That sucks even more! Did you show up in your gardening clothes? I'm guessing you didn't, but I have to say the bf and I've adopted the dress your best approach for apartment hunting and flying and seem to have fewer problems and warmer welcomes than when we went in what we actually wore to our casual jobs.

Oh, and I agree with whoever said maybe it's a sign. A flakey LL up front might be even worse long term.

I've been in some places that have REEKED of cats - but it was about 10 cats that didn't use a litter box. How two properly cared for cats are a problem, I just don't get it.

Rave: you all have the opportunity to take me out on Friday night!

scarlett

Oh really? My gf has coupons for Cellar bar and then we're going to Bar Artisanal for cheese and wine if I'm still alive and you want to join.

Rave: apartment found, half a block from my current one. Nice and big, stainless steel appliances including dishwasher, great floors, room for all my crap. Sign lease in the morning. No outdoor space though.

Rant: It's not cheap! Now I'm going to be broke like everyone else!

unclejunior

Yay! Now you just have to pack, and move and purge your house of crap!

Congrats!

carmen

Where'll it be, honey?

mougar

That's great, voodoo!

voodoonyc

Thank you guys and thanks to everyone (Mama!) who listened to me freak out over the last two weeks. Now on to packing and purging.

anastasia beaverhausen

Balthazar's!

brooklynbound

Wow. You are going to allow yourself to be out on a Friday. I must go.

Are you still going to hire movers? Seems like a waste of $$ since it's so close. And I really don't mind whipping Mougar like a pack mule. Honest.

I know! Wanna be my date? And by date I mean "person who carries me home and tucks me in while leaving a glass of water and a garbage can by the bed."

Ha. Thanks for offering Mougar's services. Yeah, I really (really) have to hire movers. I have waaaay to much shit to impose that on anyone. But I can definitely move a lot more than I thought by myself, like the breakable stuff.

anastasia beaverhausen

Well, try and negotiate the price down since they really only have to move the heavy shit. Mougar can carry the other stuff.

manny27

it's nice when you are moving close by as you can just make a bunch of trips with the food and clothes, etc. without having to be careful about packing....a bunch of milk crates and you can keep everything on hangers.

scarlett

More importantly, when is the "I'm moving come celebrate my deck and flowers now and drink all the booze in hard to move half a block botthes?" How about the 27th?

Yes. As in person who carries you home, tucks you in, and makes sure you get some food and some ibuprofen after you let it out. Then leave a trash can. So you don't end up like Jimi.
