Things are looking up....

[lady_kishiria]

It must be all the prayers and white light and Positive Energy, thank you!

Landlord came over without warning and things went....swimmingly. He's a VERY queeny gay guy who likes to do Joan Crawford impersonations, and SteveO thinks he was just in Drama Queen mode on Thursday. He saw the house and said it looked good. The cats gave their usual adorable performance. We showed off the garage, which we cleaned up yesterday so it's better than it was when we moved in. I told him the realtor had already said she'd find us a new place when this one sells and he said that the transition should be smooth.

He also said that he'd like the place empty when it shows tomorrow, which is okay by both of us. Steve has a class and I said I always felt uncomfortable being there anyway. So the cats and I are parking at seki_raku's place tomorrow for 3 hours.

After, Steve and I went to the diner on 43rd we'd been looking at for 2.5 years and yet never visited. We went in; George's has been open for 24 years, but I don't think the Chinese couple currently running it are the original owners. Steve had their $2.99 breakfast (scramblies, sausage, pancakes) and I went with their Chinese menu, having a *really* good kung pao chicken since I'd already eaten my usual toast for brekkie.

In other news, since I had insomnia last night, I finished off chapter 6 of "Quinto Sol" and it's now in the lupine jaws of its editor.

Oh, and we also finished the existing episodes of "Firefly". At least the last episode, "Objects in Space" was a good one. "Serenity" is at the top of the queue, but it's at "short wait" status, so it'll come when it comes.

So the State of the Rat for the day is sound.

I have Serenity. Not sure if Steve wants to join us and watch or what he's up to while you and the cats are in quarantine...

Steve will be taking his usual Bar Prep class. Otherwise he'd love to be over.

The Butterfly greets the State of the Rat and is happy that is sound - for the day.

And, yeah, we do make distinctions. A SWM "honey" is over-the-top worse than a queeny "honey".

Have fun in your emigrated-for-a-few-hours escapade tomorrow.

Hugs and all,
H.

I didn't notice this before. Our landlord may be queeny, but there was nothing funny or friendly about him calling me "honey" in this situation. A person can be gay and a misogynist prick, and he is.

Apparently, your take on the strength of any prayer of mine is slightly off. I was praying for your landlord to implode prior to the inspection, not for the inspection to go well. Obviously Divinity is spinning His own take on the recommendations from Planning/Ops.

[kishiriadgr.livejournal.com]

Not at all. Think of it this way; which is easier to make happen; to calm down a tweaky landlord or to make him implode? Obviously the former. You must understand the universe.

Hesed once again triumphs where Gevurah does not because Gevurah tries too hard.

I'm glad the situation got better!

Will ask L if I could join y'all tomorrow, at least for a while.

El Yay!

Also glad that the situation got better and that our prayers were noticed by the Central Authority. :-)
