I’m really stressed. Like REALLY stressed.
I chewed the head off our builder’s realtor and spit it out, then stomped on the remnants just for that added oomph at the closing of our house yesterday. She deserved it, so I don’t feel bad. But I do have that angry taste still in my mouth and it’s clouding my excitement over my new house. Try as I might, it is rather difficult for me to give up grudges and take away the power that anger holds over me.
Let’s all pretend that I’m in a fantastic mood and am currently spewing rainbows and puppy dogs straight outta my bum. M,kay? So onto happier thoughts and talk…I never have told you about my date with Casey and Nell! Silly me! We had a great time and it was truly thrilling to meet them both in person. After having read both of them for at least a year, it was kind of surreal to actually be sitting with them and having lunch and conversation.
The thing I love about blogging is the community and friendships that have developed. It feels as if each day, we all get together and chat, sometimes about our kids, sometimes about beauty products, or vacuums, or our TV boyfriends. Each comment that comes in is like, “Oh HI! AMomTwoBoys just got to the party! Have a seat, make yourself comfy! And look! It’s Jenni from Just Chicken Feed! Can I get you all a latte?”
Just so you know, and I know I don’t say this enough, I appreciate each one of you and look forward to hanging out with you everyday (even if it is only virtually). I wish that you (yes YOU) and I could really meet, have lunch, and gab for hours on end and ignore our children.
I told you I was spewing rainbows and puppy dogs!
Enough of that. Moving right along…speaking of moving, I’ll be moving today and Friday. Also Comcast (which IS NOT COM-castic, more like CRAP-tastic) has still not hooked up any cable to our house, so I will not have Internet access for a while. I don’t want to pull a Megan on all of you and just disappear, so I thought I’d let you know that I’d be scarce these next few days (and hopefully not weeks!) My inbox is currently filled with nearly 50 emails and new visitors’ sites that I haven’t had anytime to check out. So if you’ve recently emailed me, it’s HIGHLY unlikely (I’m guessing with about 100% certainty) that I won’t be getting back to you anytime soon. It’s also HIGHLY unlikely (again with 100% certainty) that I probably won’t be getting to all of the awards and memes.
Meh. I suck.
Hold down the fort for me! And think your own happy, rainbow, puppy dog thoughts for me as we move…hopefully minus the drama of our last move.
Peace out, ya’ll. Word to you…mothers.
Good luck with the move!
I get to do the same thing next friday. Fun times.

I’m actually scared of meeting any of my blog friends in person – like I wouldn’t have anything to say. Or wouldn’t know how to, you know, talk.
The best thing about blog friends is they can’t ask you to help them move! Ha!
Good luck and I hope everything runs smoothly.

Good luck! You couldn’t be that unlucky twice with the movers I’m thinking.
And, please don’t do a Megan – worrying about her is enough for me for now!

Yeah, what DID happen to Megan? I had just started reading her.
And as for your closing, I think that is one of the THE most stressful events possible. Our mortgage company screwed up and we had to delay twice, and we only had three days to move in and get the house ready before my mom brought The Poo out to us (she stayed back East for a week).
I screamed bloody murder and planted myself at the title office for two straight days doling out menacing looks.
So good for you! Hope your move is smooth.
good luck with the move! I hope the cable gets hooked up ASAP!

Urg…I am also spewing rainbows alhtough mine is about my in-laws. I would love, love, love to read about what the realtor did and what you said. Vicarious chewings-out always make my day.
Heather’s last blog post..restoring myself
I know the feeling with Comcast. They screwed us so over when we moved…and we just moved down the street!!! Long story.
Anyway, go to the store and pick up one of those free dial up CDs if you have a phone line (not sure if you are getting phone through them or not). Trust me. Comcast took almost a MONTH to get our internet straight!!!! And even then I had to give up my old emails and start new ones because they couldn’t change them over. Bastards.
Sorry about the evil realtor/evil Comcast. I hope things smooth out soon and before you know it you’re happily organizing kitchen cupboards and arranging furniture.

Good luck with the move and I’ll miss you while you’re gone. How long do you think we should wait before sending in reinforcements to kick some Comcast ass?

Actually, if you were spewing rainbows and puppies from your bum, I’d send you to the doctor for a check up…
Hope you are feeling better soon.
~JJ!’s last blog post..Just thinking
The one good thing about our house not selling yet is that we haven’t actually had to move yet! Hang in there, I’m sure you’ll have everything unpacked and put away in 7 or 8 months
Yeah, and what did happen to Megan?

Good luck!

Megan is fine everyone! She moved, didn’t have Internet access and now her computer is sick and broken. She’ll be back soon.
Awww….are you trying to get back on my good side after stealing my pretend boyfriend? Well guess what, sister!? It worked. I forgive you.
Good luck with the moving. And nice work on telling off the realtor. Sometimes they need a swift kick in the arse.
Come back soon! Do I need to call Comcast and have a chat with them to explain how IMPORTANT it is to us internets that you be able to entertain us? Cause I will!

You sound awfully happy for someone who’s so stressed – that’s some fine acting, my friend. For my part, I’ve been in a non-house-buying-related funk lately. Not sure what it is. Must pull myself up by my bootstraps soon (whatever the hell that means).
Anyhoo, the interwebs will miss your daily funnies, but sometimes we need to live in our real lives (sigh). I wish you the bestest of luck moving into your dream house (I’m ever so jealous).

Good luck with everything. Moving sucks *sigh*. Well done on the verbal smack down, people like that need it and I think we’re sometimes reluctant to say anything about it. I hate it when other people break deadlines and such.
Good luck with Com-spastic.
