Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yesterday I thought I had found my house. It would have required some sweat equity but it had tons of potential and was near the community college CJ will be attending. My agent and I made plans for submitting an offer this morning for a touch below list due to the needs for paint and carpet. She contacted the selling agent last night and they already have an offer for over list. Plus, apparently, the HOA is requiring that all the electrical be brought up to code (I guess there is some aluminum wiring from the original build). The people who made the offer are willing to take on that cost, even though the scope is a huge unknown (added $3K or up). I can't compete money-wise with that.

How sad, Jesse. My sympathies to her family and friends.
What a bummer, Suzi. I hope you find something else that calls to you.

Oh, no, Jesse. That's terrible!
Suzi, what a bummer. We had our inspection yesterday, and I know the structure was sound but I'm on tenterhooks waiting for the rest of the info.

Oh my goodness, Jesse- what a shock! And Terry Pratchett too?
I think I have reached the point in life where it seems like someone I am somehow connected to dies every day. I guess that is adulthood.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Got my Sweeney Todd ticket, got a free lunch with Zapp's potato chips. That's helping rescue this day.

Yeah, like a very sad game of Jenga.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Jesse, that's so sad and scary.
Suzi, I'm sorry this wasn't THE house, but you'll find it!
Good-bye, Terry Pratchett. You were fucking awesome.
JFC, will this year every get any better?
I feel like, I've reached an age where there will never again be a year in which no one I loved, personally or from afar, dies.
I think I was lucky in that I reached age 29 before the death of someone around my age that I knew personally and liked. She was a co-worker who died at age 33 of a sudden heart attack. Before that, all the deaths in my life were either elderly relatives or contemporaries that I didn't know well. Although my grandfather's death when I was 11 was very hard on me, it wasn't until I was almost 30 that a death was someone who could've been me. Now I'm trying to remember who was the first actor or author who'd meant a lot to me to pass away, and I can't. Maybe Nimoy is overshadowing all the others in my mind right now.
Sorry to be morbid on this beautiful day. I don't feel morbid, just contemplative. Of course, I should be working instead of musing, but that's almost always true.
