I just started the process! I realized my rent will go up to $1400 next summer -hell to the no. Buying a condo will save me $300-400 each month, even with property taxes and condo fees. And I finally found a federal program for down payment assistance (free money!) for first time home buyers that I qualified for - I’m…

I’m busy saving too! Have you started going to open houses? I have, even though it will be another 2 years before I have all my money (buying a condo or co-op, so there’s no option but to have 20% down). I’m learning all about the different complexes in town and which I want to focus on.

Speaking of “young enough to know better”, I was walking to work yesterday, and see the corner ahead covered with a huge cloud of smoke. I’m thinking something’s on fire.

Plus it’s been rumored for years that when she broke up with Vartan for Affleck, she tried to have Vartan fired from “Alias”. For no reason other than she didn’t want him around anymore. And I believe it happened.

I’m saving to buy a condo. I have not been saving as much as I could over the past few years, but now that my apartment building is getting progressively shittier, it becomes much easier to save instead of spend. Every dollar saved gets me a few days closer to my goal.

I keep stuff in my crisper drawer and cracker boxes - hoping any burglars won’t want a snack!

“Assholes spontaneously combust when faced when someone who isn’t emotional and doesn’t care about their escalation tactics.”

I just signed up for the underwater archaeology course! I seriously thought about being an archaeologist when I was a kid, but soon remembered I hate being outside, and getting dirty. And I can’t swim. But this course, I can do!

He’s not wrong, though!

I dunno, she’s the first boss I’ve ever had that didn’t care that my work is done, and done well, and that’s why I leave when I do. Everyone else (mostly men, but one woman too), was fine with me going whenever. One boss even let me leave an hour early every day because our office moved and I had the farthest commute.…

That’s nuts. My boss comes in late and works late, but I secretly think she’s avoiding her husband.

Innovix Labs Triple Strength Omega! Only one pill a day, and no fish burps. I get it from Amazon.

That’s awful -why would they ask that if you get your work done?

I’m slightly concerned we may be the same person.

Yeah, I can’t remember if I saw that episode. Him and the actress who played the girl his character was in love with were the only great parts of that show, and I gave it up after a season. I have it on my Netflix queue to rewatch it in the next few weeks, though.

Yes!!! Team Sousa all the way. He was the only one other than Peggy doing any damn detectiving at all in the SSR office. My favorite scene was with the earplugs. No one else would have thought of that.

If you want a good laugh, look up his brother on YouTube. He’s a real estate/finance research guy who has been on Bloomberg and CNBC - watching him is like watching Enver play a finance guy in a movie. Even their voices are almost identical!

This is why I find it so hard to talk to most people with money, who didn’t earn it themselves. It’s like they are on a different planet from me, or constantly speaking a different language.

Hey now! LLBean makes a damn fine, sturdy tote bag. But mine isn’t monogrammed.

I used to work with a woman who had the same Ferragamo shoes as my boss the day she came for her interview. They were instant BFFs after that and had very similar shoe/purse/dress taste. And when there was a promotion none of us knew about (my boss lied to let a sick colleague go), this woman got the job. I did like…
