may 10: this, that, and the other one

Well, I am sitting here in boring Bradenton, Florida waiting to take Helen Ellen to the dr's. Bradenton is not the cultural meca of the universe you might think it is; actually I think it is the world's suckiest city!

Anywho...
As many of you know Carl-E and I are moving back to O-Town in the summer. Of course we cannot wait for the cooler days of my favorite season, fall. No! It has to be the blazing hot days of the year! At least, we do not have to do all the moving ourselves, I did convince him that we are no longer in college and we cannot pay our friends in pizza and beer to move us we need to hire a company. Yippy, that I do not have to lug the couch out to the UHaul!!!

So...
We are trying to sell our house using Buy Owner, and so far no go!!! I have had 4 calls on the house; one call the lady rudely hung up on me once she heard the price, the other people wound up being my nosy neighbors who are looking to "down-size," and the others could not stop oooing and awwwing over my casa, but no offers. Basically this Buy Owner things sucks!!! I want an agent like yesterday hate having to be home and waiting with baited breath for the phone to ring. I feel like I am back in high school waiting for my weekly crush to ring me up, but it never happens!!! I am experiencing that lowly feeling of rejection all over again. I find myself asking, well myself, "Isn't my house pretty enough?",and "What does the house down the street have that mine does not?" I guess I will have to wait for that one special buyer that will look past my casa's exterior appearance and see it for what it really is; a beautiful home.

And I am outta here!
