Horrible end to the week: bella muse is closed (again, claudette has that sad & sordid story ... surprising to me, since the rick of the skins practice space on gottingen used to do that sort of thing quite openly a few years ago, just a block from the police station, and it was something that _and_ apparently did all the time, although they didn't have a neon "open" sign either... it's all too sad, since bella muse is/was the only place in halifax that feels like somewhere else, somewhere larger) ...and it's been decided by a couple of obviously pre-acquainted lawyers that real estate agents/ lawyers aren't responsible for anything to do with the purchase of a house, even though you pay them quite handsomely for this assumption, & that anything you weren't told about is *still* your responsibility (so I'm out $1200) ... none of it seems fair ... what an awful day....
