As the emergency board meeting draws nigh (that may be the first time in my life I've used the phrase 'draws nigh'), I got a pleasant surprise yesterday.

I stopped by my old house across the street to drop off some mail that had been forwarded to me, and met the new owner. First of all, she's really cool. She's a naturopathic doctor who has a strong interest in bellydancing. But most importantly, she may be interested in renting out my old apartment. I did my best not to do a little dance and scream out "Dibs!" We exchanged phone numbers and she said she'll let me know soon.
