facebook status updates

The thing about facebook is that updating my status with vague or pithy phrases has started to take the place of longer blog entries.

So, here's an expansion on the last few status updates:

Isaac is bummed because his low ball bid was not accepted.
We bid $300k below asking on a Windsor Terrace house. Our bid was not even dignified with a counter-offer.

Isaac is feeling cleansed after working the maintenance shift at the food co-op.
Our lovely Park Slope food co-op gives you six months off from working when you have a baby. Last night was my first day back on the job. I clean bathrooms and empty recycling bins one night a month. It's actually a pretty good time. Very cathartic to just be the guy that takes out the garbage. I've been doing the same shift with the same people for four years now. We've got this great relationship where we only see each other for two hours a month, and truly enjoy each other's company.

Isaac is just plain making it up.
No fuckin' clue.


Isaac is purging political preferences.
Apparently, wearing your political preferences on your virtual sleeve (a.k.a. facebook profile) is frowned upon when you work at a major news organization. Damn.
