Poking my head in (1st day back at work) to catch up and say I was really hoping Dana's coworker said something about the dashboard light.

Love y'all! Later!

Our wings are not tired

In the ongoing saga of the house we've been trying to get, it looks like the shady agent did successfully get it into escrow with another buyer, so we most likely have lost the house. The only way this would change is if, by some miracle, the offer falls apart with the other buyer and the house drops out of escrow.

Dear lord, house buying is complicated.

Sorry to hear that, Noise. Fingers crossed for miracle!

Because books.

That sucks, ND. I'll cross my fingers, too.

beekaytee, ack! Is the reason on the notice something along the lines of him changing the property's use? What's the date he's given you?

I'm am sorry, ND! Such a frustrating ordeal. I hope something surprising happens.

How can the agent sell the house to other buyers against the wishes of the sellers that want to accept your offer?

Yeah, what Matt's asking. Because I don't know about California, but in Washington, the seller has to actually sign off on the offer for it to be accepted and the house to go into escrow, so the seller in this case is sounding kind of sketch, too.

Guess who got woken up at 2:16 am by a malfunctioning CO detector? Oof.

(Not alarm or low battery, different beeps. Probably dust.)

And then I had really boring Voice Loop training (think the mission control chatter, we will be doing that for commissioning for JWST) lead by a late 20something engineer with a dudebro haircut, but dressed like my 90 year old grandpa in 1990. Down to the old man shoes. And I didn't get any hipster or fashion affectation vibes. I was just like, oh. I mean, we have all sorts, but this was new.

Hoping y'all get better housing news.
