Random Effluvia

I think I have an apartment. It's all happened so quickly that I'm all verklempped and a little freaked but ...

I HAVE AN APARTMENT!!!!
It's such a relief to have my own place again. It's a lovely place, close to work and bigger then the last apartment I had in A2. Unfortunately the Pup can't come and live with me, so he'll stay at my parents place and pine for me (as I will for him).

I'll probably move in next weekend. Now all I need to do is find a really cheap couch.

I worked yesterday in a city who's claim to fame is as the 'Home of the Republican Party'. As I ran across the street to buy a juice and some hippie chips I noticed that a sign in the window of an empty building. It read: Coming soon Merl's Old Republican Diner. God Bless America. God Bless Bush. God Bless our Troops. God have mercy on Michael Moore. Heee, I bet Michael Moore would get a kick out of that sign.

I would like to join the Red Hot Alien Resistance. Does anyone know where I can sign up?

An apartment! Yay!

*sends you a virtual couch covered with hobbit-shaped pillows*

Privacy! Solitude! A place where I can sit and try and write hobbit-fic to my heart's content! Hee!

*cuddles hobbit-shaped pillows delightedly*

Hurray! Congratulations. :) You'll have a blast.

Yay!

*dances obelia around, throwing confetti in the air*

If you find out where we can sign up for the Red-Hot Alien Resistance, please let me know, as I would like to enlist with you.

Where you moving? Need help? Need a house-warming party?

[liptonrm.livejournal.com]

When I discover the Red Hot Alien Resistance you will be the first to know. I'm positive that Krycek will be more then willing to welcome you with open arms.

And I have two words for you about where I'm moving: hobbit commune.

Huzzah!

(Don't forget that after Krycek dies, I find love and consolation in the arms of one Zeke Tyler.)

[liptonrm.livejournal.com]

Well of course, I promise that my fling with Zeke will be brief and meaningless and he'll be more then ready to console you once Krycek has died so nobly.

[baylorsr.livejournal.com]

That sounds splendid. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll find true love with another red-hot member of the Red-Hot Alien Resistance.

[liptonrm.livejournal.com]

I'm sure that wouldn't be a problem. Being red-hot is a criterium for joining after all.

And I could never be happy with the tragic, angsty hero type. I'm much better suited for consoling the angsty heroic sidekick type.

[baylorsr.livejournal.com]

There are plenty of those around. I'm sure we can hook you up.

New apartment is for yay! Sorry the puppy can't come with you, though.

Please tell the Red Hot Alien Resistance to make a recruiting run through the Chicago area.

[liptonrm.livejournal.com]

Poor puppy, I'm going to miss him. *sniff*

I'll be sure to send the RHAR Chicago-way once I have confirmed my own membership.

Oooooh! so exciting!

Yay you :) i know how happy you must be...of course you realize that this gives me leave to now call you at random hours of the evening, when you should be asleep and with total disregard for time differences ;)

Re: Oooooh! so exciting!

[liptonrm.livejournal.com]

Yes, soon you'll have the freedom of calling me any time, day or night. I simply retain the freedom to not answer those same calls;-).

And heck, if you ever want to do a cross country trip you now have an apartment to crash in for the night (though why you'd want to visit Michigan I would never know).

Re: Oooooh! so exciting!

Michigan's just about the only state (outside of NY) where i don't have to worry about finding a place to stay ;)

ps...yes, you may reserve the right not to answer, but be afraid, b/c who knows what kind of mischief i might get up to if you don't :)

Hooray for apartment! I can attest to the wonderfulness that is getting away from relatives. Grr.

Woe for puppeh!

[liptonrm.livejournal.com]

Word. I love my family but I can't wait to be away. They're like an itch I can never reach.

Poor puppeh indeed. I shall miss him. *sniff*

[chica-buena.livejournal.com]

Yea!!!! I'm so happy for you Megan, moving out of the family hacienda (sp?), good for you! Want a roommate? How about my father? Or maybe Jax? Just kidding I suppose I shouldn't pawn them off on anyone :) I can't wait to see you! Have you decided what you would like to be for Halloween? You might want to check GoodWill for a cheap couch. Just be sure to clean it well :) Congratualtions again!!!

[liptonrm.livejournal.com]

Yay! Moving out! And don't worry, I would never try and steal any of your delightful housemates away to come and live with me. I know how attached you are to each one of them;-).

Definitely going to be a witch for Halloween. It'll be fun brewing up potions that can change people into toads and other icky things.
