Fantabulous, Debet! That's great news.
I'm 17. Looking at linoleum makes me want to have sex.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I will say from when we were trying to sell our house, lowball potential offers were VERY frustrating. No one wrote one up (because our agent called us when the other party was interested and we said they shouldn't even bother), but as our list price would have still involved bringing 20k to the table to close, we just could not afford to even look at anything much lower.
And that's why we now have renters.
Can your agent figure out how much they actually owe on the place?

Well crap. I wasn't supposed to announce that, especially not on facebook, and now one of the producers is upset with me. Today just went from great to suck in about two seconds flat.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Plei, we know what they paid 7 years ago. They bought high and I do feel for them, but if they really want to sell right now, I really don't think they are going to be able to get what they are asking. Maybe in a few more years but not now. My real estate agent is going to call their agent and say that they are able to make a more reasonable counter offer we are still interested, but that his market research does not support their price. We'll see.

Yay, Debet.
Sean, I'm sorry.

Great news, Debet! Three cheers for early detection.
Did they tell you not to announce it, Sean? Because they can't ask you to be both writer and telepath.

Okay, I've traded a couple of emails with him. No real harm done, and not too big of a deal - he hadn't told those who hadn't been accepted yet, but was in the middle of sending those emails out, when he saw my post and gave me a verbal slap on the wrist. All is mostly better. That was a whole little emotional roller coaster ride just there.

Sean, I'm happy for the final result and remember - while stuff on the internet is impossible to eradicate, at this level it's probably easy enough to take down before anyone you don't want to see it has.
And Tom, I'm so sorry. Can you take some time off? give your sanity some time to regroup and maybe look into photography as a vocation (or paid avocation)?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Tom that sucks.
Belated congrats and glad the leak didn't turn out to be too awful, Sean!
Thanks for the absinthe advice. All I need is sugar cubes.
