HA HA, surprise, my landlady is selling the apartment after all! This news comes 48 hours before I fly overseas for 9 days, plus I am gone the week straddling July and August as well as a long weekend in mid-August for Fanworks, which means I am in for the pre-September crunch I was dreading, minus the month I just lost where I could have been apartment hunting. (I didn't want to apartment hunt if I didn't have to. I've written 6,500 words of fic in that time and had some quality get-togethers with friends. Still.)

At least... I don't have to agonize about the decision anymore, because it's been made for me? The Boyle family way.

Ugh. Gonna try to put it out of mind and focus on conference/vacation. Switzerland!

Meanwhile: People are into the Good Omens adaptation. I didn't have many feelings about the book years ago and haven't watched the show yet. Been bookmarking your stories and recs for later, though.

And RIP Billy Drago. :( AV Club story, and Legacy.com. Most recently mentioned at the bottom of the Northern Exposure vid post here.

AUGH that sucks, why can't landlords understand that people need this information earlier! Gah!

(Excited for fanworks, though!)

Ugh, so frustrating, but I do hope you find another place close by, if only for selfish reasons. :(
