A lesson that could have been valuable to so many in the entertainment industry. And my family.
No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I may just skip the pills and go with the alcohol. But thank you very much for the counsel!!

Whoever told me the other day not to freak out when the inspector was going through the house because it would sound worse than it was? Thank you.

What is even happening?
Oh, no. Did it sound bad, sj? Also, whoever told you that was right, though, because you are paying that inspector to pick every nit he spots (often, because this can help you negotiate repairs and/or a new price).

smonster, I've never taken all three together, but having seen the 200 lb, 6" husband have 1 glass of wine with Flexeril in his system, I'd say don't mix those two. I've never taken Xanax, but do take Ativan. Have taken it with Flexeril. Was fit for nothing but bed. Have had Ativan and wine. Ativan way lowers my tolerance for alcohol. If you're in pain and also need the Xanax, I would say to sit your ass on the bed, first.

It sounded awful, but it really wasn't as bad as all that once we sat down and looked at the paperwork after the inspection was finished. There are a few minor electrical problems that we're going to have fixed because we need an electrician to come to the house to put outlets in the garage for the washer and dryer anyway. There is a problem with the seal on a few of the windows that we are going to ask them to fix and there is some safety concerns wrt the garage that we are also going to ask them to fix. I figure we can at least ask and see what they say. There are also a couple minor little suggestions that we'll handle ourselves as we can.

Both times we bought a house, the sellers refused to bargain over inspection results, but in both cases, we were buying from estates. We ended up letting all the issues go, so as not to lose the house. It's usually not as bad as it sounds, though. I mean, someone has been living there.

not your mom's socks.
Reminds me that I need to get it together and meet up with my area's pre-stocked peeps.
I was just thinking the same thing.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

That sounds comforting until you realise that you were buying from estates.
