Inspection went okay; the fuses are an issue, but the wiring itself is okay. No word yet on RD financing, but I hope we can do that and not have to go FHA. We’ll see; not out of the woods yet!

Home inspection is tomorrow, and I dropped off the cheque for the appraisal today. I’m trying not to be excited because the inspection concerns me, as it would for any older house, but then the fucking Backyardigans roll in with their squalling crotchfruit, or that goddamned gross psycho hawks up a giant loogie at 6AM […]

Still stuck in my head, looping over and over. Bobby, I will find a way to get even with you!

Inspection is scheduled for Tuesday morning. I’m betting on thousands of dollars’ worth of electrical upgrades required before we could get insurance. That’d be my luck.

Single-story, no basement or crawlspace (concrete slab), but there’s a heated/air conditioned shed, and the yard is not only […]

Two Silver Jeans hoodies, retailing for $68 each. I paid $18 for one, and $20 for the other. Bought khaki first and loved it–sooo soft, vintage wash and the hood has cool lace lining–so I went back and got it in black!

Jesus, I knew I didnt use much talk time–I’m all text and data–but from the look of this, I don’t even need the “phone” bit at all.

My new coat arrived, and although it’s still a bit big around and if the shoulders were any smaller, it wouldn’t fit, the sleeves are long enough and I love it. I still might take it in a bit…not sure yet. I also scored a pair of Guido & Mary jeans for $20 on eBay; […]
