The Providence real estate market has gone mad, Part II:
GF, 11:55 am = There's a house in... Me, 12:08 pm = Do you want to look at it? GF, 12:10 pm = I do Me, 12:12 pm = Let me know if you like it, if you want me to go see it too GF, 12:19 pm = (The agent) said its active. Want me to book a time to view it? GF, 12:40 pm = She just said it went pending five minutes ago GF, 2:21 pm = (Agent) called the lady, said they just signed the purchase and sale agreement
The gf and I went to an open house yesterday morning. I liked it, she really liked it. It was a fairly convenient location to Providence and highways. We decided to meet with our agent later on to put an offer on it. Five minutes after we left the office, we got a call back about it. Turns out someone at the end of the open house had put in a bid at asking price and it was quickly accepted. On top of that, nobody on that end bothered to tell any of the other agents who were putting together offers.
I was stunned by just how quickly it sold. Wouldn't you expect the sellers to wait a little bit to hear other offers and then decide? I was also surprised the sellers agents never bothered telling anyone that it was sold, so we didn't have to waste our time on a Saturday afternoon working on an offer that was never going to be considered.
Oh well, learning experience.
When we were house shopping we basically had to put in our offer before we walked out of a showing. We really liked this one house, and were on the curb after seeing it talking about our offer. another couple walked in as we were walking out and put in an offer over asking within 5 minutes of seeing it. It was a frustrating house hunt because we felt like we were constantly on the clock.

It's frustrating but try to also keep in mind the joy in that you and her are finally in a place to be putting in offers. I know you two have been working toward that for a long time.
I am so mad at myself right now that I can't sleep. On vacation last week, I purchased a really beautiful and expensive necklace for myself at the Grand Canyon gift shop. At the same time, I also purchased souvenirs for my brother, SIL and nephew. When I got home, I took all of the souvenirs I purchased for myself, mostly postcards, and put them on my desk. I left the souvenirs I purchased for my brother and his family in the bag. When they stopped by to visit on Monday night, I gave them the bag of souvenirs. They pulled out their souvenirs and really liked them. They thanked me for them and put them back in the bag. I spent all day today looking for the expensive necklace I purchased and couldn't find it. My mom stopped over this evening and she asked me if I gave my SIL the turquoise necklace I bought. I told her that I hadn't but have been looking for it and can't find it. She told me that she visited them tonight and my SIL was wearing that necklace and was bragging about how beautiful it was and how she loved it. I must have accidentally left the necklace in the bottom of the gift bag. Now my SIL thinks I gave it to her but I really didn't. I spent a lot of money on that necklace and it was pretty much the only souvenir I bought myself on vacation besides postcards. I really want it back but I have no idea how to ask for her to give it back to me. How do you ask for a gift back without seeming rude? I think I'm just going to ask my brother if he has seen the necklace I lost and when he says yes, then I can ask for it back and tell him that I didn't mean to leave it in the bag. Hopefully my SIL will understand. Ugh! I can't believe I let this happen.
My poor corgi man Zane had to be put to sleep today after the vet discovered acute liver cancer (FUCK CANCER). He had been acting very sluggish and threw up several times in the past few days. I'm still coming to terms with all of it. I raised this guy as a wee lad and we were practically brothers. I'd come over to my folks house to walk him almost every other day. It just isn't fair! He was only 6 years old.

That's super shitty, very sorry to hear it Nothing quite prepares you for losing a family member like that. My thoughts are with you.

Shit, my best wishes Tronik. You can just tell he was a sweet heart.

Damn, I'm really sorry to hear that. I'll keep you in my thoughts. It's never easy to loose a pet, especially when they are at a young age. He looked like a really cute dog.
An old friend of mine took his own life a few days ago. I feel all the worse fer havin' lost touch over this last year.
I'm sorry to see this. Losing someone you know/care about is hard enough but when they take their own life you can't help but think if there is something you could have done. thinking of you and their family.
Sorry to hear that tronik. Animals are hard to say goodbye to because we only have good interactions with them. There are no fights or grudges, just love for each other. Nothing makes it easier but you gave him a good home and now you'll have a lifetime of happy memories.
It is fucking uncanny how significant events fall on top of each other. At least 90% of my free time is pretty flexible and open to whatever comes up. I'm available as fuck. But inevitably:
YAYYYY Rolling Stones tour kicks off in San Diego a couple miles from our new place, awesome!............ shit. We will be in Charlotte.
FYF IS THE BEST FESTIVAL YAYYYYY I CAN'T WAIT TO GO AGAIN!........ fuck. My bridal shower is that weekend. Room has already been reserved/paid for and I would be a gigantic asshole asking them to move it.
It's all good things, but dammit! Basically the ONLY two weekends that we have anything going on. WHYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE?!
So after my Mom said 100% that they could NOT move my shower, I told Cody to go ahead and invite his friends to go with him to FYF and make a guys weekend of it... He got a bunch of his friends coordinated and booked rooms yesterday, people are booking flights etc...
And my Mom texts me today to say she feels bad and wants to move my shower so I can go with him.

I've never been able to say no if situations change. I'm betting if you talk to him things can be worked out.

It's essentially going to be his bachelor party weekend with his friends, so I wouldn't do that to him/them.
I might ask her to have the shower earlier in the day and head up that afternoon if the lineup is AMAZING (which it usually is). I'd be doing it solo though, I have a room booked downtown. And if I'm super lucky I will see Dave Maynar and his lady for a bit
Just annoying that she said there was NO WAY it was possible before, and we changed our plans because of it.

You ever get the feelin' that you're fightin' a useless fight? In several aspects of your life, all at once?
Just, ugh, fuck.
If it makes you feel better, I've spent my evening arguing with people on Twitter about the legitimacy of an AP reporter because they didn't like what he was reporting.
In retrospect there was probably a better way to spend my evening...
I can't tell you how many hours upon hours I wasted, sitting through organizational meetings during the end of the Occupy era. Far too many frustrating hours that went absolutely nowhere, and I was too determined I was doing something positive for trying.
And I only got one of the maybe five or so items I really wanted on Record Store Day. Some band called All Time Low was doin' a signin' as I got there and holy cow I don't think I've ever seen that many teenage girls in a record shop since...well ever.
Probably about 36 hr. ago we had our usual late night Jimmy John's at mayonaise 's . I'm just now able to keep food/liquids down. Never again. Jimmy John's is forever ruined.

Was it just you or did everyone get sick? What did you order? I would assume chicojuarz would tell you this is your punishment for supporting perv sandwiches.

Me and Andrea. Mayo didn't eat hers, so she was saved. We got JJ Gargantuans and idk what was bad but I felt it immediately. I stopped eating and laid down. Then proceeded to vomit and have diarrhea like 6 times during the night.
