'Why We Fight'
[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.
sj I hope that there is no delay in the purchase and you can get away from the horrible landlord and neighbors.
Penny is feeling better today. Right now she's sticking her paws under the bedroom door trying to get out. I wish I could let her out. Last night I put Dean in the bedroom (figuring he'd meow and scratch at the door if I closed him out) and it went okay. Until this morning when Penny started biting his tail and trying to pounce on him.
sj, if there are issues, you can work with the moving company to hang on to your stuff for a few days (it will cost $$, but it's doable) and you can stay at a hotel or with family or something while it gets worked out.
It's annoying and stressful, but there are definitely solutions - keeping them in mind now as you move forward could help you set things up so if contingency plans are necessary, the groundwork has been laid out. This stuff happens all the time though, so there are mechanisms in place to deal with it. much ~ma that it all goes according to plan though.
In other news, we didn't hear back about the potential tenant, so I put a call into my credit union to talk about short sale-ing it. Have an appointment to discuss it with the boss man on Monday afternoon. Crossing fingers!

Thanks, Nora. I do know this, but I am hoping it doesn't have to come to that because of the stress. If we keep our current closing date, we will actually have a few weeks overlap to clean up the new place, paint, and do some minor before we move in, which I really don't want to be living in the middle of. Plus we have to make our current place "broom clean" before we leave and do a walk through with our landlord and hopefully get our deposit back.
Right on. I figured you knew, but wanted to reassure.
Fingers crossed that it all goes according to plan! There's a good chance it will, so I send all the ~ma.
That would make my head explode. Can you imagine the hundreds or thousands of times that those of us with insomnia issues, or kids, or a good novel at hand have crawled our butts into work on little to no sleep? Suck it up, dude.
Bad insomnia can be a legit reason to call in, or in my universe, work from home. If I am not safe to drive, I should not be going into the office. (If I work from home, I can sleep a little later, and catnap as needed.)
My lawyer said that really the only thing that could delay things at this point would be if there is a problem with the deed, and since the current owner has only been in the house for a few years and there wasn't a problem with the deed in his sale, it should not be a problem. So, I am hopeful, but I never expect things to go the way they are supposed to. We signed the Purchase and Sale agreement today, the seller will sign it later today and then it is all in the banks hands to do the appraisal and get the paperwork done.
After about two weeks straight of 2-3 hours/night sleeping, my manager sent me home from work because I was too exhausted to function properly. That was about five years ago; my insomnia issues aren't nearly as bad these days, thank goodness.

Yup. If I'm punch-drunk from not sleeping, I should not make the 25-minute drive to work.
Ha, I got sucked into Angry Birds on Facebook and went to bed. . . much too close to the time my alarm goes off. I wish I could have called in "tired."

I call in unable to work because of insomnia--sometimes it's unable to drive, sometimes it's actually unable to perform the required tasks. I'd hate if someone were writing me up because of insufficiency of spoons. Even if it's my fault, it wouldn't make driving in any safer. And I'm not sure how my boss would ever know it's my fault. That's between me and my godlessness.
