Friday, thus far

[rolanni]

So, the guy who was supposed to start work No Later Than 8:30 this morning Actually Arrived at 9:50, whereupon Steve and I had to Vacate the Premises so that the 10:00 Viewing of the House could happen.  We had a late breakfast at Governor's in Waterville, then went to KMart in the sincere, but as it happens, mistaken belief that we could buy a coffeemaker there.  We wound up going to Target in Augusta for said Necessary Item of Auctorial Survival.  We arrived home just as our guy and his helper were cleaning up, did the inspection and the Paying of the Fee, and received the information that the 10:00 Viewing happened; as did the 11:00 Viewing.

I'm starting to think we need to install an Arrival/Departure board, and a Really Big Clock on the front lawn.

Anyhow, it is now, or very shortly, time to eat the midday meal, then I get to go back into town to get a Long Overdue haircut.  Then! The day being shot anyhow, we might Just As Well go see the evening 2D of Guardians of the Galaxy, making a Personal Best of FOUR trips into town in one 24-hour span. This strategy will allow me to lock the door to my office All Weekend and get some dern work done.

How's your Friday shaping up?

It's currently 96, mumble, mumble.

Around here, when agents show a house, they always leave a card, usually on the kitchen counter, so the owner knows it's been shown. I always assumed that was a universal practice.

We ask that they leave a card. Apparently, we are insufficiently convincing, because not one agent yet has managed to do so.

Unless they're dropping them behind the couch.

. . .I should probably check that.

Hahaha! Katz probably ate them ;p

[rolanni.livejournal.com]

Probably not, though it's not completely unlikely that they became cat toys and are now under the stove. Funny thing, today; the cat's had apparently pulled The String out from the Big Pile of Cat Toys, and left it untidy somewhere, because it was coiled up nice and neat and in the center of the coffee table when we got home.

Check to see if they've developed thumbs ;p

The agent left a card, then picked it up as part of her/his decluttering.

I hope you have fun at Guardians of the Galaxy. We did. Stick around for the credit cookie, yes do.

[rolanni.livejournal.com]

Had a great time. The cookie...eh. But I was never a fan.

My Friday included receiving a heating oil contract that insists I pay a $350 cancellation fee if I stop delivery for any reason at all. This would, I assume, include selling the house or having the house burn to the ground. Not planning on signing it unless I get some changes.

Friday was my second day in hospital, but they let me out Saturday as I "no longer meet the criteria for sepsis". Still recovering but I think in a week I'll be fine. Meanwhile, I'm escaping by hearing about y'all out there.
