Nobody will be surprised to learn

[crim son]

that one of the showings has been cancelled because the prospective buyers' flight was cancelled. The other showing is contingent on the weather, and we are in the middle of a massive snowstorm so I expect it will be cancelled too.

I have the most interesting luck but I fucking refuse to get upset about this. At least the damned bathrooms are clean and at seven, I'm doing to drink myself into a stupor. Unless the bar closes too.

Good news: My friend Steve informs me that he is prepared to carry me from bar to bar. Bless him and the fact that he doesn't like to drink.

Steve, bearing me up as usual.

1. I'm sorry.

:hug:

[crim son]

4. Well, thanks.

One small consolation: I am looking out a livingroom window and noticed for the first time that one of our ancient oak tree trunks is shaped in such a way that from this angle it looks exactly like a naked man - complete with pretty nice buttocks - standing with his arms outsgretched. I consider this a good sign. Sigh.

9. ...

:evilgrin: :rofl:

[crim son]

15. We must take comfort where we can, SA.

Come here!

[Starbucks Anarchist]

20. That pitchfork hurts!

I like it! :evilgrin:

[crim son]

21. My hand must have slipped. I meant merely to threaten,

not gouge. Let me lick the wound.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

27. ...

:blush: :evilgrin:

[crim son]

29. ...oh...

I wounded you there....? :evilgrin:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

34. A little.

But seeing your pic up there again, I'll take my chances. :evilgrin:

And now I have to go and start drinking. Talk to you later! :hi:

2. My dear crim son........

You're right, sweetie.......

I'm not at all surprised at the showings being cancelled due to the weather...

But nonetheless, I wish you wouldn't drink yourself into a stupor tonight....

Getting drunk is never an answer to disappointment.

You are better, and bigger than that....... :hug:

[crim son]

5. I think I'm exactly that size, CalPeg.

However you can be the judge when I appear at 1:30 a.m. with my report. Thanks, sweetie. I'm not so much disappointed by the cancellations as I am bowled over, aghast, astonished & appalled by how the road never runs smoothly...

[billyskank]

3. Shit.

:(

:hug:

[crim son]

6. Yeah, shit!

:loveya: I'm tired, billyskank.

[billyskank]

7. I know.

I don't know what to say. :(

:loveya: too.

[Connonym]

8. Damn

Another reason to hate winter :( I've been in the process of moving since January. Between the weather and getting schedules synchronized it's been an agonizing process. I can't handle the stress of all the showings so my house isn't even going officially on the market until the end of the month. I don't know how you can handle it with kids and all.

I think that if you don't make a habit of drinking yourself into a stupor that every once in a while it's exactly what one needs. Wish I could buy you a drink. Cheers!

[crim son]

11. I will toast to you, first drink tonight, Connonym.

Unless you're afraid my luck will somehow thereby be passed on to you. :( And I don't like winter, not Maine winters anyway. We've kept our house on the market throught the winter and if I were to do it again, I probably wouldn't. I wish you luck with your sale!

[graywarrior]

10. God damn mutthfuckin' shitfuck!

Ain't that just the way! Jesus H. fffff'n Christ, fuckidy fuck fuckin' weather.

Whew. I feel soooooo much better.

My jobs is making me want to eat a gun.

[crim son]

12. Don't eat a gun! I'm going to need you to cheer me up again,

like you did just now. Allow me to try: GOD DAMN MUTTHFUCKIN' SHITFUCK GEORGE W. BUSH !!!

Ah. Better.

[graywarrior]

13. Nice, goin' after the shitfuck hisself. Bastid mutthafucker.

You're cured.

[crim son]

16. I'm feeling it.

Deep & satisfying revulsion.

[graywarrior]

24. Almost like a vomitting orgasm.

[crim son]

26. Vomiting I know. But orgasm?

WTF's that?

[graywarrior]

31. Just my sick mind.

I'm from Lynn, what do you expect? My mind is in the gutter 24/7.

[mwdem]

14. That truly stinks.

Let's hope your luck changes, for the best, and soon. Meanwhile, this evening, have one on me!:toast:

[crim son]

17. I think I will.

:toast: My luck will change but not today, I guess. I'm thinking that maybe a human sacrifice to the Fates is in order, and I know just the right sonofabitch I'd like to slice open.

Who me, frustrated?

[ThomCat]

18. I'm sorry.

:(

:hug:

[crim son]

19. Hiya Thom.

:hug: What did I tell you about miracles?

[ThomCat]

22. Your turn will come.

:)

[crim son]

23. I know!

Maybe tomorrow. :D

[InternalDialogue]

25. Aw, crim son!

Sorry about the cancellation. But you did a lot of work today, and you won't have to lean into it again like that. I hope the remaining showing goes through somehow, but if it doesn't, hang in there.

Don't drink to make yourself forget about things tonight--that's too much like punishment. Drink to have fun, drink to relax, enjoy your friends, and keep yourself safe.

:hug:

[crim son]

28. Thanks, sweetpea.

I won't do anything more stupid than usual, especially since I will still have to get up early to do the final cleaning, JUST IN CASE we have the one showing. :pals: :hug:

[billyskank]

30. Hot.

:loveya:

[crim son]

35. You are crazy.

:hug:

[seemunkee]

32. Sorry your showing(s) were cancelled

I think Steve is getting the best out of the deal.

[crim son]

36. Haha! Steve has a hot date tomorrow night.

I am his biggest fan and the person least likely to ever date him.

[Shine]

33. Oh, so THAT'S what you look like! I hadn't "seen" your pix yet.

You're very pretty. Is it true that blondes have all the fun? :D

Don't worry about your house. It'll all work out.

Just keep affirming and visualizing that the Perfect Buyer for your home is out there and you are continuing to magnetize her/him to you with each day.

It's just a matter of time.

Hang in there. :hug: :hi:

[crim son]

37. I will continue thinking positively but

in the meantime, no it's not true that blondes have all the fun, although people under thirty might!
