The good news, part 2

Sometimes the best way to get things done is not to try -- to say to hell with it and throw a dinner party instead. The girls came over on Friday and in between drinks and dinner they'd called dibs on our bed, our table, and our espresso machine, all of which will be going up for sale with the rest of Mr. O's old bachelor furniture when we move out of this place come end of July.

Did somebody say end of July? Yep, we don't have to pay August rent on this place (which, as of last night, I sort of hate, as they REFUSE to turn the heat off in the building and we have no thermostat) because my lovely, talented friend Minna the video artist is living in residence on Suomenlinna this summer and needs someone to take her place for two weeks at the start of August, which is pretty much freaking perfect timing. Minna is also buying our coffee table.

So yeah, aside from the 12-hour hangover on Saturday, a very productive weekend. Anybody need a couch?
