De-luxe Apartment in the Sky

It has happened! We have moved! I have a new love, and its name is Brooklyn Heights. The new apartment is even better than I thought it would be, and aside from some serious nesting yet to be done, I am snug as a bug in a rug. Actually, maybe that's not the choicest of expressions right now...

Our Landlord of the Underworld made herself known yet again during the move-out, though I suppose it was quite dastardly of me to think I could prop open the front door of the building while moving out my large furniture. I'd forgotten that the "damn gypsies" of the world are in a conspiracy against her and will rob her blind at every chance they get.

On top of that, she informed us she was going to be keeping nearly half of our security deposit because she would need to paint the place. Silly me, I thought she was gonna do that anyway, but long story short, we were ready to pay HER to shut her pie hole and disappear. You know you have a bad landlord when your own mother offers to "hold the bitch while you punch her."

In the interest of brevity, however, I consider this a happy ending to the past year, at least so far (I take nothing for granted at this point). One thing we are still without in the new digs is the internets, so it'll be a while before I can post regularly. Considering my audience of like, 5, though, I'm not gonna stress about it. :)
