My choice in music tends to reflect my moods... lately my spirits have been a little low, and so I've been wallowing. This one song has been on repeat....
Unknown by Chely Wright
Fire and Rain is my favorite song
I say a prayer at 11:11
I could watch old movies all night long
I'm not sure about hell but I know there's a heaven
Sometimes at feel so alone it scares me
I talk in my sleep but there's no one to hear me
[Chorus:]
Unknown
I don't want to be unknown
The little things that make me who I am
I need to share
I need to know that someone cares
That I drink coffee black
That I sing when I drive
That I sleep with the TV on
More then anything
I don't want to be unknown
I love September when leaves turn gold
I get nervous in crowed places
Someday I want to see San Francisco
I'm bad with names, but remember faces
I need more then a kiss, more then a lover
I'm a world that's waiting to be discovered
[Repeat Chorus:]
That I write down my dreams
That I love when it rains
I burn candles when I'm alone
More then anything
I don't want to be unknown
More then anything
No one wants to be unknown

House Hunting
So selling a house sucks... but now I'm in the market to buy again. But I will never be the jerk-buyer that I recently had to deal with when I sold my house in AL.
Update: As of 06/27/10, I found a great little condo.... it was bought as a foreclosure in February 2010, completely renovated, and put on the market in May 2010. The initial listing price was $125k.... but when I saw almost 30 days later, the seller dropped the price to $119k. A very short sequence of haggling resulted in a selling price of $117k.
However, as Murphy's Law is a fixture in my life.... snags have developed... more to come...
Update: As of 07/21/10, the homeowners' association still hasn't resolved the delinquency issue so my loan can be approved. Apparently because of the fallout from the recent mortgage disaster, lenders now require that condos with a homeowners association cannot have more than 15% of the members behind in their dues. The HOA for the condo I want has a 19% ratio.... so basically because 4 people won't keep up their dues means that the 4 people who want to buy into that neighborhood can't.
