jianantonicThings are good, mostly.
Jer went back to his side of the mountain today - I miss him terribly already, but we've gotta do this for now so we can sell the house and really get living over here. Before he went, we had a long talk about our new place, what we're going to do with our extra money, etc. It's nice to have options, but the complications just make things that much more stressful. But...we'll make it through. We can't decide now though if we want a 2, 3, or 4 bedroom condo (it's about $10K per extra bedroom). I think 3 would be ideal, but so does the rest of the world, and we'll have a lot more choice with one of the others...but if we go with the 4, we don't have much leftover $$ from the sale of our current house. If we go with the 2, we have lots of extra money and we can do some really nice decorating. But then we may not have enough space. I dunno. We'll be doing some good thinking for the next few days. Two bedrooms is certainly enough...but knowing that we could have more for a really reasonable price makes it hard to settle.
Anyway, enough about that. Work is going well. Options trading is a bitch to figure out, but I'm getting there, and I think I'm on the verge of getting it...really...and the thing is, I don't even have to get it to do my job...but I want to.
I've got plans for every night this week. It's crazy - moving back to my high school town has propelled me back to my high school popularity. AND the folks I'm popular with are EDUCATED and LIBERAL. Rejoice! Anyway, tomorrow I'll be hitting the Jefferson theater with Ben for Elizabethtown. Wednesday I was going to go to the Guad, but I think that's the only day I can meet with my realtor this week, so I may have to wait and do the Guad next week...sorry...Thursday I have a bridge date with my mother (shit, I need to brush up!), Friday is a dinner date with Laura, Saturday I'm volunteering with DI all day (this is actually the training session for the real deal which happens next month), and I'm trying to decide if it's worth it to go to McGaheysville for a few hours on Sunday. If I get to see my Jcow, I suppose it is. And I need to help get that house ready for resale. Eesh.
I really am so happy to be back - but I'd like to get settled already! Too much waiting! Why the eff does it have to take so long to sell/buy a house? :( I need to have a yard sale...c'mon, spring.
A little birdy from the Girlyman inner circle told me that Falcon Ridge invites were issued this past weekend...I wonder when we'll start hearing who's booked...!!!! I know Crooked Still and EFO got early invites, so that's happy. Let's keep our fingers crossed for Girlyman, Tracy Grammer, The Kennedys, Ellis Paul, The Mammals, Jim Boggia, Arlo Guthrie, Dan Bern, Ember Swift...to name a few...hehe. You know, if even a handful of those folks get invited back (and it's a pretty sure bet at least some of them will), I'll be busy busy busy, so it'll probably be best if not all of them go...hehe. I guess we'll start hearing soon.
Peace.
