What does she have to say?
It sucked. The Whole Nine Yards was hillarious. I think I laughed through the entire thing. There was not one thing funny about it’s sequel. I know, sequels are never as good as the original but usually there is something to hold it together. This had nothing.
ZERO stars - 
Connie’s right. I can’t ask any of you to be excited for me if I don’t even show you what the house looks like. Right now, I only have pictures from the listing. I’ll have to take more on Monday when I go back to the house for the inspection. Here’s one from the listing:
YAY, the contract is signed and being taken to the title company today. The inspection will most likely happen on Monday and the closing is in 18 days (including today) - May 15. The house warming party should be around the second week in June.
If you’re coming for Three is The Magic Number Party on Saturday, May 20, I’ll have to take you guys over to the house. I’ll have moved a few things over then but I don’t think a full “move in” will have happened by that point. I have the luxury of moving over 2 1/2 weeks so I’m going to take my time, maybe. Let’s see how anxious I become once the keys are in my hands!
What do you think - change the locks once I get the keys?
This house thing is driving me crazy. It’s actually not officially under contract after all. The guy is still being a stickler about everything. He’s a CPA for the IRS and apparently, he’s been in seminars from 7 am - 8 pm and unable to get to his office computer to print out, sign and get the contracts back to my people. My realtor Karen & I were thinking that maybe he’s delaying to see if another offer comes around but the seller’s agent assures her that’s not the case. Somehow, I’m feeling a bit of “I’ll believe it when I see it” right now. Hopefully, I’ll get a call any minute because the seller’s agent is supposed to go to where ever this seminar is being held to have the guy sign it in person. Hopefully, this agent will go straight to a Kinko’s and fax it to Karen. Once that’s done, we can have the inspector come out. He was supposed to come today but I’m not paying $300 for an inspection on a home I may not be able to purchase!!
Karen’s such an awesome realtor, by the way. If you’re in the Austin area and you’re looking to purchase a house, I highly recommend having her help you.
My friend Cheryl sent me this. I’m not too big of a fan of chocolate (yes, I know - *gasp*) but it does work.
YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH
DON’T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!
It takes less than a minute
Work this out as you read …
Be sure you don’t read the bottom until you’ve worked it out!
1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that! you would like to have chocolate (more than once but less than 10)
2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)
3. Add 5
4. Multiply it by 50 — I’ll wait while you get the calculator.
5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1756. If you haven’t, add 1755.
6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.
You should have a three digit number.
The first digit of this was your original number (i.e., how many times you want to have chocolate each week).
The next two numbers are YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)
THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2006) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS
I also got this at work. It’s called “The Bird Flu Hits Florida”.
