I really don't post here enough. But then again, what is there to say, anymore? I work, I sleep, and occasionally (some would say constantly) I bitch ( Read more... )

A detailed review of the financial assessment from my loan officer revealed to me tonight that realistically speaking, I'm not going to be able to buy a house ( Read more... )

I've been giving a lot of thought to the home-buying process, especially since I found this one's price dropped down into the arena of what I could actually afford. The neighborhood seems a bit on the skeezy side, but the price... I could actually afford it. It would even be a pretty substantial drop from what I pay in rent now.

There's another ( Read more... )

I bought a self-contained "closet" cheap at Target in an effort to free up closet space (by getting my clothes out of it). It's a little flimsy, but not too bad for the price. Then, I boxed/binned up some seldom used stuff and piled it in the closet ( Read more... )

I went to bed early (for me) last night in the hopes that it would be easier to get up and make some phone calls on some apartments I found on craigslist that night. It didn't work out quite like that. I went to sleep around 2:30AM planning to wake up some time between 10AM and noon.

I went to grab a repack for tossing a bunch more odds and ends into, and a black 36A Hanes padded bra fell out of it. Someone at work in softlines must have been careless and folded the box up without removing it.

So, I guess I've "stolen" it. At some point I'll bring it back, but right now, it amuses me. And who knows? I might find another one.

Helped Jacob drag the last of the stuff out of his old residence today. He gave me a bunch of stuff, including a twin mattress and box spring set (and a nice one, at that). Also snagged a dorm-sized dresser left behind in the attic of the house. It'll be an improvement over the plastic bins I've been using, that's for sure. Might (or might not) get ( Read more... )

What's wrong with me, hmm? It's not like I have a life or anything. Yet, it's been a while. Lately, the time's just been blurring past insanely fast. What seems like "a few days" really is a couple of weeks at this point. It's insane ( Read more... )
