Coworker: fuck take me with you
This is a tipsy post that will probably get deleted, but I’m like, mad and lonely because my wife got drunk and went to sleep and tomorrow they’re leaving, and I have to go out to get ready to start my new job alone and I’m leaving behind everyone else I love and I don’t even get to at least have my wife to come home to through that, and this is my last night with them for about a week and they wanted to drink which is fine but now I’m alone and I’m going to miss the family I’ve made in nyc so much, everyone I work with has become my family and I love them and I know leaving is good in the long run but right now I feel so lonely
My boss drew me for office secret Santa and got me too many things, but one of them was socks and the fact that he got me specifically men’s socks touched me a lot

it’s rich people!
LMAO THIS IS TRUE.
My mother-in-law’s boyfriend is selling his mom’s car but he said it was “too old for us” at 17 years old (which, granted, we are looking for something a little newer) and I told him my car back home is 24 years old and he just had no response.
Meanwhile all my friends are like I KNOW SOMEONE SELLING A CAR and it’s mostly junkers, or else they’re telling me to go on craigslist and just make sure it has carfax.
People’s attitudes about cars and safety are so funny to me, my in-laws are all up in arms about us needing a good car for the snow and demanding we get four wheel drive and like, meanwhile as a teen I was allowed to get the first shitty car offered to me, one windshield wiper didn’t really work and my parents had no problem letting me drive a few hours through late night snow storms when I had a reason, they had the philosophy that being a good, safe driver made up for most car stuff

Congrats! No more in-laws! When can you move?
We move in January 2nd, which is the same day I start my job, but the holidays means nothing can really get done before then. We’re actually gonna come back for the bulk of our stuff the following weekend. It’s gonna be pretty hectic, but at the end it’s gonna be SO GOOD.
WE GOT THE APARTMENT
The other fun thing about today’s apartment viewing is that even tho I introduced my wife as my wife, the realtor still asked which of us would be living in the apartment
After seeing a final place that was honestly a nightmare, we put in our application for the place we liked and then ran to the bus station and got our tickets bumped up so we’re getting in at 10:30 instead of 3 in the morning

Okay so a) this is beautiful sushi for two b) it cost under $40, which is still a lot but sushi for two at a decent NYC place runs $60-70 and gives way less (both less sushi and doesn’t come with soup and salad)
And anyway this is close to where I’m going to work and not far from the apartment we like, I think we just found our date night go-to.
