so selling a house is crazy business, lemme tell ya'. you have strangers in and out and they peer into your bedroom and you wonder what it would look like should it become their bedroom.

we've had five different families come see the house. we've had five full price offers. we have a kick ass house and everyone and their mothers (literally) love the place. they actually say 'ouh' and 'aahhh' and we've gotten some 'wows' and 'amazings' too.

it almost gives you a big head when everyone wants something you have... especially when they say stuff like, ""this house is beautiful... the colors, the decorations, everything... who did you hire to do it?" and you can smile and say "oh, i did, thanks." and they look at you like you're a god and then ask if they can pay extra to buy the stuff in the living room to keep as is. heh.

it is time to go... time to move on from this house and start fresh somewhere new. but i'll be damned if i'm not going miss it. i plan to take a lot of pictures before i leave so that i can prove to people i lived in such badass house. and so that when i end up building my own house some day, i can show the architects the pictures and say 'i want a bookcase just like that one, except instead of on one wall, i want it on three, and the fourth needs to be giant windows.' (that'd be the personal library i'm going to have. *g*)

aaaaanywho.

aside from the hussle and bussle of showing the house, i've been running around trying to get stuff in order for The Big Move. everything is going great; sometimes i'm so efficient i scare myself.

today i've decided to take it easy though... with the exception of scrubbing my car inside and out, i haven't put anything else on my plate. oh, well, there's laundry... but that hardly counts.

tomorrow my mission in life is to go buy boxes. (a concept i have a hard time coming to terms with... i don't think boxes should have to be bought... but because we live in a world of lawsuits and some lady sued a company cause she picked up a box in their back lot and a spider bit her... well, it's not so easy to do anymore, the whole gathering up free boxes for a move thing.) so yeah, i'll be buying boxes. bah.

and then of course, i'll start in packing. since i'll be gone an entire week this month, plus out of town four additional days... and i have two concerts to go to, not to mention a little thing called work... well, i only have about nine days total to get the packing done. only nine days to pack up a bedroom, kitchen, dining room, and consolidate/pack two living rooms. woooooo doggie, things is gunna get cra-zay 'round here, uh-huh.

*l*

and yeah... i need to grab a bite to eat and then start in on my car, so i'll done for now, but perhaps i'll have something fantastic and worthwhile to say later.

suuuuuure i will. *g*
