WE GOT THE HOUSE!!!
We had to outbid four other buyers, and we went over the (ridiculously low) asking price, but it's ours! All ours!
It's an ordinary split-level on a treeless lot (see my sad face? :-D ) in an ordinary suburban subdivision, but it's OUR ordinary split-level on... yadda yadda yadda.
What. A. Relief. And only six more weeks living apart!!!!!!! Yaaaaaaay!
Whew! Gotta go call Mom now, and message Lance Criminal. I think it's time for some tunes and that last shot or two of Jack! (and I was feewing sowwy fow myself spending the howiday weekend awone.)

Grrrr!
Two weeks and two days since we made an offer on that house. Just now found out we didn't get it. Realtor thinks there might have been something fishy going on at the listing end; I wouldn't be surprised because it was a really good house. So we begin anew, with reassurances that it usually doesn't take this long, even on a repo.
*sigh*
At least WolfAlpha is coming home tonight, although his flight is already delayed until midnight.

Language Warning
Got your attention, didn't I? I should use that title often.
Any#*^%, I'm linking another article, this one being something I've been trying to articulate for years. Matt Forney does it so well I no longer need to bother. In lieu of thinking for myself, I'll probably be doing quite a few re-posts until The Big Move. (Still waiting on a response to our offer! I'm looking at you, BOA!)

"Paranoia is narcissism. Believing that everyone is out to get you assumes that you’re important enough for anyone to care about. "...
"The reality is that nobody cares."
Get over yourself.
No no no! Not you guys! My readers are awesome! Everyone else!

Out. Of. The. Park.
The specific issue in this article is men's rights. Read it anyway. It applies across the board. Such wise words are rarely spoken:

"In my opinion, there is no Democrat and Republican any more. All one has to do for verification is look at the glove-like fit of the anti-freedom, pro-imperialist policies of thievery from the American people on behalf of Wall Street conducted by both the Bush and Obama administrations. Bush shredded our constitution and doused it with gasoline. Obama stepped in and tossed a lit match on the pile.

Change? My ass.
All of this was done to benefit multinational corporations and a very corrupt group of the powerful elites. We should never be deluded into thinking anything else..."
Paul Elam rocks. The high rank and low caliber of people who want you to fear him, is all the proof you need.

*Sigh* Light Blogging Ahead
Still waiting on a response to our offer. Yesterday was my last day at work (Woo-Hoo, and Boo-Hoo) and WolfAlpha came home today. I'm taking the weekend to completely relax, then it's time to start packing. WolfAlpha's time off will be limited, so I'll be doing most of it (which is why I quit my job well before the move.)
I'm also mulling over the idea of starting a second blog - less personal, more issues, specifically the logic behind the issues. I want to improve my writing skills by tackling longer essays on my favorite subject - EVERYBODY'S RIGHTS! (and the corresponding responsibilities...) There might be footnotes. *gulp*
I think it will also "free me up" to indulge in more goofy stuff here. Cuz some days I just gotta be goofy!
