Apology accepted.

I'll let you know when/if anything pans out. I just want something different for the next phase, I think. Maybe. I don't know. Ugh.

Hoboken?

How long are you planning on staying there, starries?

WHERE are you moving?

I already answered FOR her - NC!

[Muddled]

No. No Hoboken. If we stay in NYC, we are likely to stay somewhat close to where we are now.

I'm getting a bonus sometime soon! Yipee. I've been working hard

PS that is really exciting.

But...Hoboken isn't NYC! And NJ is beautiful, and doesn't have sales tax on clothing.

Uhhhh... Yes, it is not NYC, but it would mean that the job market is still NYC and it would be a really shitty commute for Brad. The poor guy doesn't need any help lengthening his days.

Also, we don't have sales tax on clothing until you spend real money.

NJ is not an option. Nope, nope, nope.

lol. What? It is a poor choice for us.

I can't dog NJ too much. My mom grew up there.

[Deleted]

Philly? Boston?

[Muddled]

No. If we leave this area, we will drift towards the south. Nothing is definite. Just exploring some options.

[Muddled]

Full circle, mags. Full circle.

Noooo! Resist! It's much easier for me to visit you in NYC. Or even Hoboken.

[Deleted]

Yes, I would love to go full circle as well.....but id end up where your leaving.
I'd love to go back to PS

[Muddled]

This is all very premature. For real.

Although, I do know that Hoboken is out. lol. It just makes no sense whatsoever. If we stay in this area, we;ll stay close to where we are now.

I just got back from wedding dress shopping with my best friend. I nearly killed the sales girl. I asked why the hem was so wavy on this dress and she decided to give me this huge lecture on how all organza hems were like that and that is the only way to hem organza. 

I know how to hem organza. Also, I asked if it was supposed to be like that and you decide to be a patronizing bitch.

I had to take deep breaths for a minute or two.

[tiramisu]

captainmel that sucks. I'm impressed you weren't condescending right back.

I have more good news! I'm reorganizing and have a new china cabinet set up in the dining room and have turned that back into a functional room. I'm also setting up a bar cart in the living room.

[captainmel]

That sounds exciting tiramisu! I love projects like that.

All I did was look right at my friend and say "mmmmmmmhummmmm" in a really sarcastic tone of voice.

I was so annoyed. I think I might write a negative review and put it on the internet!

Thanks everyone! Boyfriend picked out the color and I was initially skeptical but I've ended up really happy with it.

mags -  I love the idea of a steel blue. I want to see what you pick!
tiramisu - I might break into your office and steal your mug. You've been warned.
starrieskies - Do black and white, you can change the accent so easily and it is so much cheaper! I think that floral one says.. guest room...

ok I brought home about 25 paint swatches and have narrowed it down to 5!
ill post color once I make a final choice.

Whoo! Whoo! 

(I just got around to reading this thread)

I'm going to assume that I should clear a bedroom for you, muddled, so we can be roomies.
