fall cleaning
i’m trying to clear the backlog in my moderation queue and behold! actual comments, buried amongst the penis enlargement/mayan end time/indecipherable (to me) russian spam! so, hi guys. and sorry kat, i did seem to mark you as spam. oops.
in actual fall cleaning news: saw people make our neighbor’s leaves magically disappear (well, for a day or two) so we called for a fall clean-up quote. three hundred dollars? three hundred fucking dollars? i hate raking, but christ, i can buy my own leaf blower for that sort of money. lunatics.
on the good news front, we’ve finally settled on a price for the house and will hopefully close by turkey day. magically transforming from renters to owners, all without moving (hooray!). perse & wee macduff continue to do well (despite an attack of the sniffles). life is good.

*I* will come clear your leaves for $300.00. Hell, I’ll come remove your leaves and bring them home with me so that I can see some autumn leaves.

So, did you close on your house? Sniffles gone? Are you decorating a tree?
Homeowner, eh?

yeah, no. scheduled for 18th now. resolution: never, never, never again buy without an agent.
sniffles replaced by a GI bug. yay daycare!

Hmm, you should post about that agent thing eventually. I have this deep suspicion that they are horrible parasites, and would welcome contrary evidence.
Happy holidays to the Gnu family!
