"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

ION, I think we're making a bid on the house.

We're going to talk to the contractor who did the inspection and go over to the Open House today and talk to the tenant who is moving out.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm so excited for you and yours, David! Holding my breath here.

We have a second showing this afternoon for the lady who came last week and seemed super interested. This time with her contractor to get estimates for the changes she wants to make. So maybe Laura will float soon.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I shared the ice fishing link with my Cincinnati-born mother and she told me to Google Jerry Springer. (Which I don't need to do because I already know that backstory.) tl;dr it does seem like Ohio mayors are... unusually familiar with where to find prostitution happening?

House-ma to everyone!

Happy birthday, -t!

I rejected my sister's invite to the mountains this weekend, because work is nuts and next week will be nutsier (because wedding), and my house is gross and I don't want to spend the weekend being a 3rd wheel and worrying about my dog peeing on the white carpet in the mountain cabin. (WHITE CARPET. Who puts white carpet in a mountain cabin?)

Anyway I hope I didn't hurt her feelings. But I'm cranky and stressed kind of all the time right now and need to be able to go away from people.

Just ran the dog in the woods (we were both very slow, ugh), and now I'm going to shower and then return something to Nordie's and go buy bourbon at TJs. And then clean my fucking house.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It's on like donkey kong. I talked to to the inspector and clarified things in the Disclosure.

There's another Open House at 11.

We'll go there. Could be making a bid as soon as noon.

House-Ma!

Eeep! House~ma in abundance.

Who puts white carpet in a mountain cabin?

Seriously! I can't even stand my white tile. Only wood floors in the future. No tile. No carpet.

House~ma!

White carpet in mountain cabin is certainly an unusual choice.

The whole NFT thing seems like a classic economic bubble but even less based in reality. Like if we didn't actually have tulips but had to invent them just to have a bubble. And I don't even understand the energy ramifications, that is just bonkers. So I can understand someone on the artist end not wanting to miss out on potentially making a lot of money out of the whole mess, but still disappointing.

it does seem like Ohio mayors are... unusually familiar with where to find prostitution happening?

Heh.
