Nope. I need to speak with the mortgage broker I got the pre-approval through on Monday. He sent me a worksheet yesterday afternoon that was very different from what we had talked about several times prior.

I'm not necessarily going to use this guy, but I want to have a solid understanding of the cash I need to have at the closing and how much I'll be shelling out every month. Apparently, what I'm asking for is very :rolleyes:.

First call of the day was a woman who slipped and fell on ice. "I didn't know it was going to be icy" she kept telling us. "It took every ounce of restraint in my body to not reply "...the name ice festival didn't tip you off?" :rolleyes:

Next call was for an elderly gentleman who "couldn't urinate." Really? Keep drinkin' Dunkin'. :rolleyes:

I :rolleyes: people.

I'd almost rather be dress shopping at an outlet mall than this. Wait. No I wouldn't.

Im done with that fiasco .

I don't blame you for wanting to see it in black and white. Too bad about the :rolleyes: mortgage broker.

Have you decided if you like the counter offer or is it a deal breaker?

I'm sitting here listening to my daughter having a phone fight with her boyfriend. :rolleyes:

I'm in the office down the hall but she knows I'm listening because I've checked in on her.

They are fighting over his mother and her ideas on how to keep them apart. :rolleyes: This is a woman that smokes weed with her other son and allows him to drive with no license due to a DUI. It appears that she invented the word Kettle.

The counter is reasonable. The buyer is also the builder and he's making non monetary concessions in terms of upgrades. Which is fine with me.

So this is a newly constructed house or one that is being re-modeled?

Somehow I got roped into the Mother of The Bride's dress-shopping trip today. They assured me it would be brief, and that I needed to be there to attend tux-selection at the tux rental place. Considering I had virtually no input into the tux selection process, I'm not sure I really needed to spend all those hours at the mall. Thankfully, I am now nursing a 48oz 190 Antifreeze Daiquiri (the 190 denotes Everclear ^), and enjoying the river view from one of the top floors of the MSY Sheraton. I'm gonna be in so much trouble when the Significant Otter comes to pick me up in a bit for family dinner night. The daiquiri came with two free Kamikaze shots. :D

Mmmmm, tacos. I wish they had decent tacos in New Orleans. The last time I got dragged out to a so-called Tex-Mex place in this city, the menu listed such abominations as "Crawfish Enchiladas" and "Papaya/Mango Jerk-Chicken Burrito" :rolleyes:

At least all the other food here is good.
