It has been nearly forever since I updated this thing... We did get the house, and we are happy with it. We get along very well with our neighbors (and our dog gets along very well with the neighbor's dog)... Work is keeping me super-busy, as are many doctor appointments (recently had my wisdom teeth removed with many complications, got new contacts finally, came down with the flu which lead to bronchitis, and my dermatologist has decided to medicacte the hell outta me)...all sorts o' fun stuff Seems like I have been pretty heavily medicated since the beginning of August...and I don't particular care for it. Life is starting to seem pretty blurry, and I suffer a bad case of C.R.S.! What else has been goin' on? Been watching lots o' hockey to make-up for the lack of last year... Researching the pros/cons of a new cell phone, a pda, and a laptop...wanna stay better connected when I am not sitting in front of the computer at home (and obviously I shouldn't be using the work computer to stay in touch and keep up with personal things)...we'll have to see how that goes Thanksgiving and Christmas are fast approaching - so I may come out of the medication fog, but only to go into an alcomohol coma...I hate the holidays, so I prefer them in a blur... Well, that's enough updating for one morning.
August 9th, 200509:00 am: house
so, we were originally supposed to close on the house and take possession by july 29, it is now august 9 and we have no idea when we will take possession. all the paperwork has been signed, but the damn VA inspector keeps finding li'l cosmetic things that are not to her likin and keeps holding us up...needless to say, hamilton and i are getting extremely frustrated!!! we wanted to be all moved in before all the weddings (paul & andy on aug. 20th, stacey & gene on aug. 27th and connie and steve on sept. 2nd - all in MI, all at least a 3 hour drive from our house)...now unless we get the keys today or tomorrow, it doesn't look like we'll be making the deadline (keep in mind we have a whole ton o' shit to move from one house to another, and we have appliances (fridge, stove, dishwasher, tv) all ordered from best buy, just waiting for the damn keys to the house so we can schedule delivery of them all...ugh... and i am so stressed i am not sleeping well, i am constantly sick to my stomach...and my eye has been twitching non-stop since sunday i still haven't totally recovered (emotionally) from the car accident (yes, my car was totaled) - hamilton will tell you i drive over-cautiously now (to the point of annoyance) because of the car situation and the house situation we are pretty damn broke (financially)...which is frustrating, too i am pretty sure i need a vacation!! okay, enough of my whining this morning...time to get working...
July 22nd, 200510:24 am:
so, yes, i was in a car accident on sat. and, yes, my car was totalled i am fine, the other driver is fine...the other driver is at fault (considering she drove straight into the passenger side of my car) i look at it this way, now i am definately getting a new car for my b-day and i don't have to worry about transferring my Michigan title and plates! ;-) we are having a few issues with the house, we may or may not be able to close by August 1st now, ugh...but we are still trying
July 1st, 200502:45 pm:
Not sure how accurate this actually is: 
You are pure, moral, and adaptable.
You tend to blend into your surroundings.
Shy on the outside, you're outspoken to your friends.
You believe that you live a virtuous life...
And you tend to judge others with a harsh eye.
As a result, people tend to crave your approval. |
The first part of this is true...not the second part, so much (I am a beer girl) | Your Leo Drinking Style |
 You love to drink and dance -- you're likely a fabulous dancer.
You're usually pretty a good drinker as well, losing your commanding dignity and turning kittenish.
Of course, you're quite aware you're darling -- Leos will be Leos, after all.
You generally know your limit, probably because you loathe losing self-control.
When you get over-refreshed, flirting will ensue -- and perhaps not with the person what brought you.
But you are not the type to break rules even when drunk, so others try to ignore your naughty behavior.
You'll just make up for it with a sheepish (and hung over) apology the next day. | | Your Signature Cocktails | | Leos like flashy drinks, be they complicated tropical concoctions festooned with umbrellas, like a Bahama mama or the more common strawberry daiquiri or mai tai. Indeed, you often have a taste for the fruity -- try a screwdriver, or add an extra cherry to the next Manhattan. Your sense of drama lends itself to a kir royale, of course. | | Your Celebrity Drinking Buddies | | Edward Norton, Bill Clinton, Madonna, Debra Messing, Martha Stewart, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Christian Slater, and Fred Durst. |

| Your Daddy Is Darth Vader |
What You Call Him: Dada
Why You Love Him: He gives good spankings |
01:36 pm:
so, the electrical systems in the house need to be completely rewired...other than that, the house was pretty much as expected for an eighty year old house for the record, the tiles on the walls were plastic and not ceramic - so they cannot be repainted, they will have to be torn down fun, fun but at least it will be ours (provided they will fix the wiring - as the VA will not approve the mortgage with the wiring as is) but...it is the 4th of july weekend...hurray!! looking forward to much drunkeness and unhealthy foods!! :-) maybe i should stock up on some chaser, as well...probably not a bad idea if i want to make to work half-way alive on tuesday! for those of you i won't see this weekend, have a safe and happy 4th!
June 30th, 200509:59 am: weird kind of morning...
it has been a weird day already...and it's not even a full moon! i found out my bar plans were cancelled for the night because a friend's husband passed away suddenly tuesday evening talk about a shock! and i am so busy this morning, i am not fully taking any of this in at the same time, i hired an inspector to look at the house because according to our purchase agreement we have 7 days to get the inspection....my boss doesn't know this yet, but i will need to leave here by 3:30pm today... and i haven't been able to get ahold of the realtor to have him meet us at the house and i have a ton of work that the boss wants done ASAP ugh!! is it nap time yet? :-( Current Mood:  busy June 29th, 200510:47 am:
not a lot of time to write at the moment, but i wanted to officially announce that the seller's counterofferred...and we accepted so, we are officially buying our house according to the purchase agreement, we must close by july 29, 2005 (since our current least is up august 1, 2005) so, that is where we stand anyone up to helping us move (again!) ;-)
June 28th, 200504:40 pm:
i got to eat lunch with Jerry Springer today...that was interesting...of course, there was approximately 250 people there as well (it was "The Cuyahoga County Bar Association Installation of Officers and Trustees" and Jerry was the keynote speaker) he's not nearly as rowdy or outrageous as you'd expect...and he made fun of his show a few times... we wrote an offer on a house last night...hopefully we'll have more details by the end of the week (hopefully they accept our offer without counter-offering) that's about it....
June 22nd, 200510:27 am:
so, my body is getting a li'l more used to the drugs so i am not quite so sleepy (of course, i had 2 naps and a full night's sleep on saturday, i am sure that helped) my life is pretty dull lately, except for that we are going to try to put an offer in on a house by this weekend...we've got the house picked out, we are just waiting to hear back from the mortgage dude before we make the offer (we want to take out more $$$ than the house will cost for some repairs and a hot tub - but we aren't exactly sure how much we'll be allowed, and that is kind of important) the house we chose if very granny-like...it will need quite a bit before i am comfortable there (i was never all that comfortable at my grandma's house - so i think i am traumatized) but at least there is a bar in the basement!! ;-) if all goes well, we'll be having a house-warming party near the end of August - anyone interested?!?! Current Mood: bored Current Music: Peace Love and Understanding - APC June 17th, 200503:41 pm: still sleepy...
but sore, too...cardio kickboxing kicked my ass last night...i feel pretty good except my ass hurts! :P somehow they convinced us to go back tonight to sign a 1-year contract...damn them!! guess that's one way to motivate me to go, right? sign my life away... at least it's only $20/month but i am still so sleepy from the drugs... Current Music: Scandalous - Mis-Teeq June 16th, 200509:47 am: so sleepy
so...i couldn't figure out why i have been so sleepy this past week...it finally dawned on me yesterday...i started taking my special PMS pills about a week ago...i had forgotten how sleepy they make me...ugh...i guess you have to weigh the pros and the cons, right?!?!
June 14th, 200510:05 am:
