Nice short week, I like it. It cost me an arm and a leg though and I'm worried about how I'll managed to dig myself out of this hole. I'm constantly told that I don't have to worry and that my family is ready to back me up. I'm tired of needing constant backup. I just hope everything settles as planned come January ( Read more... )

The enjoyment of the new place continues and is now made even better with the acquisition of my 360. My new chocolate palace is now [i]complete[/i]. Seriously, getting that baby in the house is like completing the fucking Tri-force. I was already in foul moods whenever I had to go to work because it took me away from home. That foul mood has ( Read more... )

I did not make it to Lou's wedding after all. Alex's party lasted much longer than I thought and it was not my place to leave everything to my very exhausted girlfriend. No reactions where received from my absence yet, I'm curious about how that will pan out ( Read more... )

I don't know when we will be done unpacking but things have cleared up considerably and it's now possible to have an idea of what the place will look like. I wish I had more money to buy a couple of pieces of furniture to make things perfect but that will have to wait.

HDtvs are teh hotness.

The cable company hires ex-ravers who took too many pills and now think it's awesome to go "KOOLAID AH YEAAAH FUCK THIS WALL BITCH" when it's time to install a new wall socket. I've complained to the technician but the more I stared into his lifeless eyes the easier I could make out the hollow shell of his skull. There was a dead hamster in there ( Read more... )

It seems like it's taking forever and I'm still not out of the woods yet. To say that I thought we could have done this by last weekend, now we are looking at this weekend for a possible end to the whole thing. Note the word "possible". I could go into the details but meh. I just wish this could be over with so that I can start really enjoying ( Read more... )

Something that I was not aware of: When you buy a house there is a considerable amount of "work" that the structure needs to undergo before it becomes a tad more stable. Since the place is fairly new we have already noticed strange behaviors in certain elements and I've been assured by more than one person that this is entirely normal. For ( Read more... )

When I was young I went through a traumatic painting experience of which I'm still having nightmares. I've picked up the roller once or twice between now and then but the idea of painting even the smallest of surfaces has always been one of pain an suffering, it is truly the second step that was terrifying me the most when it came to buying a ( Read more... )

I think ( Read more... )

My notary is a total mind fuck. I can't say that things are going badly but he sure makes me feel like it's the case. I have a strong feeling that his constant badgering on possible problems is a result of him wanting to sound effecient. The guy has been handling everything at the very last second it seems as tonight, one night before we sign ( Read more... )
