Then I couldn't take it anymore and quit. (Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:06am) «Michael (foof) Maki» ...I mean, just because I'm a hippie doesn't mean I don't want nice *things* :-) (Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:07am) «Michael (foof) Maki» I just love that this printer has a little sensor inside for when it auto-aligns.

(Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:12am) «Rob Balder» Yeah I want nice living arrangements and the freedom to just go to Toronto for Frucon or whatever. (Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:12am) «Rob Balder» The 'things' don't appeal so much, but the freedom from hassle is what Iike to spend money on. (Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:13am) «Michael (foof) Maki» Rob: <nods> those things are hard to do without filthy lucre. (Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:13am) «Rob Balder» My computer is crappy, I don't have cable or mobile phone.

(Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:16am) «Rob Balder» Minneapolis is another place I could live. MSP, Chicago, Toronto, Pittsburgh and Washington DC are the cities I am sure I could live in. (Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:17am) «Rob Balder» I could also *probably* live in Denver, Seattle or Vancouver, but I have never been so I don't know for sure. (Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:18am) «Michael (foof) Maki» I really loved Minneapolis, but the opportunity to move here presented itself, so I needed to do it. (Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:19am) «Michael (foof) Maki» I'm kind of babystepping my way to NYC...and that's actually the next logical step.

(Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:27am) «Michael (foof) Maki» <nods> I don't get out to theater here nearly enough, either. (Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:28am) «dave "buh"» i like to go to london because it's sufficiently city like to have plenty to do BUT i don't have to go to work while i'm there (Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:29am) «dave "buh"» i tend to alternate, sometimes just going and getting whatever's available half-price or fringe theater, sometimes i book ahead and see the new west end stuff (Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:30am) «Michael (foof) Maki» The UK is so EXPENSIVE, though...

Gah. (Feb 23, 2001 @ 11:31am) «dave "buh"» compared to $70 in nyc.
