"My, she was Yar..."
I've taken a break from the apartment search for a few weeks. I'm in Detroit for the next 3 days preparing my boat for sale (sigh). I think parting with it is one of the hardest things about leaving Michigan, but there is NO way to haul her out to NY and keep her there...even if I gave up the apartment hunt and lived in it, in dry dock.
So, I need to see if the ice sarcophagus has dwindled to the point where I can get in and do a thorough inventory, get my stuff out and prep her for her travels (hopefully) to Durango, Colordao. The couple who are interested in purchasing her saw my only listing online, and I guess they know that a near-pristine 1976 Islander (designed by Robert Perry) is not easy to come by. Actually, I was quite pleasantly surprised at how many people wrote me about the boat and are interested in buying it, but these folks seem quite serious, so they are first in line.
Man, I had some great times on this boat. Bon Voyage, lovely Swallow...

Wendy, re your housing search: this sub-lease isn't in NYC, its in D.C. But I thought you might want to read the ad anyways.
OWNER SEEKS NEW TENANT
Rambling, Georgian home with porticoed porch, wrought-iron fencing, large front yard. 16 bdrms, 35 bths. Rose garden in rear. Within walking distance of Washington monument, many attractions. Pets allowed.
Please see American people for terms of lease.
Sounds perfect! Does it include a fucking helicopter so I can come and go from the office? That would be totally sweet. ;-)
Can we start the eviction proceedings on the deadbeat who lives there immediately?
WEndy,
an NYC acquaintance suggested you try Craig's List.
