Timelies all!
Congrats Kate and family!
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Through persistence, I finally got through to a leasing office and got the number of a leasing agent. I'm going to contact her and we shall see if any of these 1-bedrooms are still available in a couple of days (ha ha, they probably won't be):
I left a message at the leasing office here:
AND I talked to a guy about a move estimate.
Edit: Now I'm going to fuck off into this good night and go shoe shopping.

Omg. Left work early at my sisters prompting but she wanted to stop at a Walgreens for a scrip on the at home and we have been here for an hour. An actual hour. Motherfuck I'm going to kill something.

The status is NOT quo.
CONGRATS to Kate P and family! Welcome to the world, Jane!
And tommyrot, I’m very happy for you.

Thanks, Nora! That's a good spot. Would have been convenient for us when H was working at the end of the Causeway.

Hooray Kate and baby Jane and M. and Rose!!! YAY.
I had my first job interview in 16 years today. I think it went well. Or, at least, I'm going to try and keep myself from obsessing over whether it went well.
Question: post-interview follow-up notes, yea or nay? The Internet says yea, but I've been interviewing a lot of people lately, so speaking as someone on the other side of the table, IDGAF whether any of the candidates I've interviewed sends me a note or not. But I guess I should err on the side of, "It can't hurt."

Punishingly Intricate
Congratulations, Kate P!!! I also love the name Jane!
Good luck with all the move stuff, Shrift! I wonder what my old place, a 4-bedroom flat with garage space, in the Mission goes for now?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Congratulations Kate and family!

Good luck, amyth! I've never sent post-interview notes.
