Denis McGrath, blogger of Death Things on Sticks and writer of several Blood Ties episodes, posted a video of Mr Olbermann ranting against President Bush. (I would have posted the video here, but had trouble embedding the code.) Fair warning, before you press play: if you like Bush, you won’t like what Mr Olbermann has…
This is a good week for the house: three showings in two days. There is a new showing scheduled for this evening. A lady I work with pointed out that I should try to have a better attitude. I’ve been rather pessimistic. Would you be if you’d had 25+ viewings and no offers? She said…
My stepmom sent me this picture in my email with the caption “Just checking on you.. Yup. There you are… Sitting at your computer again.” I couldn’t stop laughing. What caption would you put on this picture? I’m not sure where she got it from, so please pardon no link to the original photographer. Related…
I enjoy odd pens and odd dice. Makes sense, since I’m a writer and a gamer. During the late 1990s, I used to play a game calle Dragon Dice. I lost my dice in one of my previous moves, and have missed playing it. I thought it had been discontinued after Wizards of the Coast…
This is a first! The house has two showings scheduled back to back for tonight: 6:30 and 7:00. Wow.Here’s hoping that things will go well and maybe someone will make an offer. Related Images:
What are the implications of writing for another blog?
I’ve received two notifications on the house today for two showings: one this afternoon at 1:00 and another tomorrow evening. Wow. Lots of activity but no offers. I know the house has an odd floor plan–that’s what happens with additions and remodelling–but it’s still a great house at a reasonable price. How in the world…
Things have definitely picked up with the house. My real estate agent thought that activity would pick up with spring and she was right. There is another viewing scheduled for tomorrow evening. Each time I have a note about someone viewing the house, I always wait to see if there will be an offer. So…
I had two problems with WordPress since I updated to 2.5.1 last week: the trackback field disappeared and no one could leave comments on the posts. The issue turned out to be an incomplete upload of the wp-admin/inludes folder. Once I re-uploaded the folder, the trackback field and comments-enabled options re-appeared on the Write New…
I was randomly reading web pages and came acros a site called Photo Basement, a site that contains humourous modern day and historical photos, some times captioned and some times not. The photo sets are pretty funny. The set of what happens when geeks have kids got me laughing, especially this first image: Related Images:
What Is Your Battle Cry? Hark! Who is that, rampaging amidst the candy store! It is Ceffyl, hands clutching a mighty sword! And with a spectacular roar, her voice cometh: “I’m seriously going to smack you into a fine spicy powder!!!” Find out!Enter username: Are you a girl, or a guy ? created by beatings…
Another showing tonight for the house. Maybe, just maybe, someone will like it… I keep hoping that the right person will see it and fall in love with it. Related Images:
My real estate agent called me at work today with an update on what the indiviuals who had looked at the house thought of it. So… No real good news, unfortunately. Three people thought the house was too expensive (even though the price has been lowered by $10k from the original price). One couple really…
I’ve been trying to get things unpacked in the apartment. Some days, like Wednesday, I’m super productive. Other days, like today, I’m not even close. I unpacked maybe one box tonight. Shuffled things around. Just didn’t have the energy after work to do much. Instead, I will probably opt to go to bed early. Tomorrow…
Okay, kinda related topics — more that they happened on the same day than anything else. House showing and allergy update. The house is showing this evening! Woohoo! That’s four showings in one week. Hopefully one of these will result in an offer… The house has had a lot of traffic but no serious inquiries….
