sometimes news is just too important to wait for confirmation

okay cosmos, hold off on your jinxes and hexes this time, because i have to share this now, even though i haven't actually signed anything yet. i'm just that excited.

just got off the phone with "mme. guro" of rilsa (the by now infamously asinine gerance i've been referring to for the past three weeks), and she is indeed back from vacation, and told me that we can have the apartment (yay!) but that she needs yet another stupid piece of paper (boo!). i guess we need to come up with an "attestation de non-poursuite" for maurice as well, and then she'll write up the contract for the 15th of september. which isn't the most convenient thing ever, since maurice has exams until september 27, making it not the greatest moment for moving, but if i have to, i'm more than willing to pay the overlap just to ensure that we get it, and have him move in later. i'm just that frustrated with the whole deal. :)

there's plenty more i should write about soon, but i have a big pile of shit to do for work today, so i need to knuckle down and try to keep myself out of trouble for a while.
