Never have I been so glad to see the end of a month. May was truly awful, and not only (but maybe principally) because of Merc in retrograde. Certainly nothing worked as it was supposed to--including and especially the house search. Whoever thought that there was a buyer's market in this town was, as the RE folks say, dreaming in Technicolor. But we managed to get our offer in and accepted for The Enormous Retro Condo (and, thanks to my agent's wiles, we didn't give the sellers time to think--if we had, they would have been looking at multiples for sure). If all goes well we'll be in there before August. Gigantic sigh of relief all around, except on the part of the cats (one of whom will have to be smuggled in).
Major renos are on the horizon. Stepping into the place is like stepping back in time to 1982, but at least everything is neat and clean and hasn't been mucked up by previous renovators. Thank you, spiffy old gent who lived there so tidily and unimaginatively for the last couple of decades.
I kept hoping that AOS would spur me to tell a story, but now that Romulus has been wiped out in at least one universe I've kinda lost the desire to revisit the characters. I have the T'Pring opus (begun in 2001 and never finished) gathering sand on my hard drive, so maybe I can find a way to rework that one in the new timeline. Or not. Many fans are sure (or at least they hope) that T'Pring has died on Vulcan, and I have to admit that the chances are good that she probably did. Oh, well. At least Wildcat is happy about the S/U, and I'm happy about that!
