So Tyler came over (lolduh) and we were some happy loafs. We cooked a lot (made steak & potatoes, hamburgers, tomato caprese, & even pancakes & eggs & bacon for breakfast on Saturday! Now I'm hungry. XD) and I decided to be an old housewife and bought 600-thread count sheets and it is like sleeping on LUXURY, mmmm.

Also we have a bit of news on the ever-lasting House Quest - it SHOULD (hopefully) be ready to close in about a month & a half. It was a short sale, which meant that the owner was about to be foreclosed on and decided to sell the house real quick before the bank could actually foreclose in order to save his credit score. This, unfortunately, means that it takes FOR FUCKING EVER to finish the deal. After about a month (we submitted the offer in early June), the bank(s) finally determined that the seller meets the requirements for a short sale (meaning s/he is actually, truly broke, and doesn't have some pile of money ferreted away somewhere that the bank could potentially have) and a negotiator has been assigned to move between the two banks. Oh, right, coz the seller has two mortgages from two separate banks. So now the banks have to decide on the percentage each bank is going to get from the sale (and the negotiator is the dude who goes back & forth). This will (hopefully) not take more than two months (it's already been about a week since this negotiation process began), and then (HOPEFULLY) we can close at the beginning of September & be ready to move in by the end of September. SHORT SALES. DO NOT DO THEM. Too bad this house was just so perfect or I would've passed it up. XD

Anyway.

In the past week, I’ve started & finished three WoW novels and am on my fourth. Why does the backstory have to be so INTERESTING?? I've been playing way less just so I can read way more. WIN.

I also spent like $250 on my poor stupid car (fuel injection flush + transmission fluid flush + oil change = at least my car better run awesomely now, dammit) and took my mom to see Harry Potter as a belated birthday present, and watched Tyler put together the lining for his Count D coat. Other than that, my apartment was Loaf Central this weekend. Quite acceptable. :D

Now, however, I am bored. This is the third work-day in a row where I have not had shit to do. And I'm not complaining because I'm sure at some point I'll be so busy I want to scream, but right now.....I'M BORED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So bored, in fact, I think I am going to finish organizing the filing system of my own accord. Geez.
