House inspection ~ma headed your way, Nora, you crazy workin' girl!
Love makes you do the wacky.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Good luck Stephanie on the exam. I loved Wills and Trusts too.
Inspection-ma to you and Tom, Nora.
Perkins! For two whole days I've actually felt like I can wrap this thing up in a week. It's unprecedented. Usually a mood swing has struck me down by now. Hopefully, this debacle won't scare you off the project.
Yay! and Nah. I figure by the time the next one comes around I will have gone into workoholic withdrawal anyway.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Nora, expect the inspectior to talk in terms of gloom and doom, they almost always do. When I bought a house, ours told us we were "making a huge mistake." It was way scary, but the actual list of problems were all solvable. Our former house in Cambridge had, for example, a dirt basement floor and standing puddles of water under the fuse box (a thing which TOTALLY freked out the inspector "This could kill you: were his words as he made us come downstairs to look.) turned out to be a wonderful place to live and we repaired all the stuff he found.

Sometimes I suspect law students like Wills and Trusts so much because the we like to imagine our demanding clients dead and gone.
Perkins, do you think your new job won't require the workaholic in you? Cool!

Trust my rage

Yes to this. Just before we bought this house, the inspector told us that we had "potentially serious drainage problems." The builder fixed a few things and now the water flows where it should. In our CO house, the buyer's inspector said we also had serious drainage problems, which a landscaper fixed for $500. Both times I almost panicked and walked away from the deal, but both times it worked out well.

I'm told that I will almost never have to work on weekends and not even that many evenings.
Shocking, but true.

Wow, it's almost like you're an academic again.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Only you'll probably dress much better than most on the academic side. Which is a very good thing.

You'll have to switch to cloth diapers. I don't think that having her in plastic pampers will pick up much dust when you swipe her across the top of the mantel.
