House!

Made an offer and accepted a counteroffer on 2565 E Prince, Tucson, AZ 85716. (Google's knowledge of the place is busted; Zillow's is not.) Barring the inspection going terribly or something, I'll be moving around July 22. They're unwilling to fix the hot tub, which needs some repair. I WILL SURVIVE EVEN THIS. (by fixing the hot tub myself because HOT TUB) Seriously, for a tiny amount more than my house in Bloomington, this is just... whoah. It has a fig tree. I am going to sit in my yard by my koi pond eating figs from my fig tree. How will this be my life. Oh did I mention that the master suite is two stories tall and the second story has a library with stained-glass windows and a deck that looks out on the mountains? Because it is and it does! ...it doesn't have a door but who's counting. ;) (I might just put up a bead curtain, because cats. Whatever, we will work it out.)

Oh, and speaking of awesome, it looks like my girlfriend [livejournal.com profile] krinndnz  is going to be joining me there, if not immediately after I move, within a month or so. This is a huge thing and an awesome thing and a little scary and we're really excited to be doing it. There will be two rooms for housemates; one of them will probably be [livejournal.com profile] zanazibar and the other one... we have no idea yet! Clearly we need to find a fourth furry gender theorist. I'm sure Tucson is large enough that it will have another one. ;)

I would think Tucson would be too hot for furries.

Coyotes-born-coyote manage it just fine, I'm sure the rest of us can do it too. ;)

So, CAFAB? Coyote-assigned furry at birth?

PS That house sounds amazingly fabulous. I am jealous of how swank it sounds.

You will have to come visit!

I really want to find better language for species identification. Right now everything I have is super tongue in cheek which is kind of fun but also kind of frustrating? I like "molar animal" but no one knows what that means unless they've read this one paper I wrote and it's not published yet so yeah.

OMG THIS.

It recently got rejected from a journal, but got very interesting comments from the peer reviewers; I'm going to be working on it more once I'm done with this accursed moving plot.

I am equally interested in the paper itself as the idea of speaking in academic terms that only exist in unpublished papers. :)

I could send you a draft if you were curious (and didn't distribute it, obviously). Do you have a preferred email address for that sort of thing? It's not a first draft by any means --- it's like version six I think --- but it still has some issues. :)

Sure, would love to read it, thanks! I'll reply with, and then delete, my email.
