judecorpThere is absolutely no way I am going to keep up with everything going on in the world of the Internet. I'm not even going to pretend I can. I am trying to keep up and read but it's so daunting. Please don't be offended if I don't notice something that happens this week.
This has been the busiest, least vacation-like vacation I've ever had. Jennifer and I got in the car at about 6:30pm on Friday night and arrived in Cambridge at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lorac's wedding venue at about 7:40am. prunesnprisms gave us directions to her place so we could chill and shower. I slept for one hour. The wedding was perfect and beautiful and wonderful, and humanbeatbox did an excellent job at officiant. There were even wedding hecklers yelling out the windows of the nearby county jail (I can't even make these things up). They wedding party looked so beautiful and so happy. I am thrilled. Everyone went out drinking that night but Jen and I opted to go back to siercia's and scirocco's to relax. We fell asleep at 7pm, and woke up at 7am.
We've looked at quite a few apartments. I'd say about 6 or 7. The first one we saw was very nice. Then we went to some others. We were unimpressed - old buildings in poor condition, unusually cut spaces, nasty appliances, you name it. We were so nonplussed that we drove the credit check form back to the first apartment people last night in the pouring rain, even though it was a 1br and we really wanted a 2. The landlords for that place live upstairs and just bought the place - they've fixed everything and it's in amazing shape. And they're SO NICE. So we dropped off the forms and they made us drinks and told us they can't wait for us to move in.
Today we went to look at another apartment we'd already scheduled. And it was as crappy as the others, reaffirming our decision. On the way back, we stopped bybeing_homeless's place and chilled. She has a cute place - we're going to contract her to help us decorate! So yeah. On the way back to Jenn&Wiley's, I got the brainspark to call this one other apartment Jen wrote down yesterday, since it stated you couldn't call until evening. We didn't have high hopes, but I conned the people into letting us see it right then since we were down the street.
OH MY GOD. It is the most amazing apartment we've ever seen, including the one we live in right now. It's on the third floor of this total mansion of a victorian house all restored and done up like a bed and breakfast, because it's owned by a middle-aged gay couple who are obviously well off. There is about 1600 square feet of space with exposed brick and gabled ceilings and skylights and a jacuzzi tub and IT IS THE MOST AMAZING THING EVER. I almost passed out. So I practically flung myself at this man to try to force him to rent to us. He's going to call some references tomorrow and we have to meet his partner on Thursday night but I think he's pulling for us because we're queer. It is a Brian Kinney apartment and I want it to be ours and I am going to die of excitement!!!
(But I will feel SO BAD about ditching the other people if we get this place.)
I had a job interview yesterday for the job I really want. It didn't go as well as I hoped - they asked way more questions about things I don't have a lot of (managerial experience) than about things I do (programming experience). Sigh. My Thursday interview was moved to Friday. La la la. Tomorrow we go to RI to have dinner with my mommy and bring her flowers, and then maybe drop in onvolumeat11.
The stress is getting to me and Jennifer terribly. We have gotten into so many stupid situations, and I vascillate from feeling dejected to berating myself for being nasty to her. Dear gods, make the roller coaster stop. This girl is my heart and my future and I get so devastated whenever things aren't perfect. Because she's perfect. Because we're perfect. Why isn't it easy?
Please oh please oh please let us get the fabulous apartment. I'll go into more details about it if/when we get it. I don't want to jinx anything!! *crosses fingers*

Date: 2004-05-05 05:22 pm (UTC)I have been rather caught up in my own world (not something I'm too proud of) but I feel the compelling desire to say that I've been reading about the exciting(?) twists and turns in your life and it is fastly becoming an addiction for me. I find myself rooting you guys along while also stepping outside of my "woe-is-me" box and transforming my dwelling time into more of a reflection time. You inspire and trigger me in so many ways, and while I know what you all are are experiencing is neither entertaining nor relaxing, I am so very thankful that you share it here.
I heart you for your strengths and your weaknesses, because you help me to embrace my own.

Date: 2004-05-06 11:13 am (UTC)Sometimes getting caught up in your own world is necessary, and not bad at all. You've had a lot of big changes these past few weeks, and I definitely think you deserve a little time to be introspective and such. Take care of you, and I hope you and Rachel are being good to each other.
We'll chat again soon, when life slows down for both of us. :)
