Stalling

I had wanted to wait until I had some definite good news to share, but I'm still in limbo. The appraiser and inspector were out yesterday (sooner than expected), but I don't have any new on the results of either yet. Odd, because when we had the house inspected, the guy gave us a sheet of paper with the info on it right then and there. I guess the sellers didn't get it until later? At any rate, I'm impatiently waiting a call from Monica to tell me how I'm spending my Labour Day weekend. I had toyed with the idea of going to KC/Lawrence, and had even booked the pups into the kennel, but decided against it due to money and time concerns. Very sad not to go, but my Vulcan brain always wins.

We are also in the midst of awaiting approval for a house to rent. Russell turned in the paperwork last night, and I faxed my half over this morning. I have no idea how long it will take for us to find out about that, but it better be freakin' SOON, because in 12 days, we're going to be homeless. The main issue now is that apparently property owners in Phoenix are a bunch of dog-hating bigots (is that redundant in any way?). We have our fingers crossed that the owners of the house we are applying for do *not* ask about the breeds mixed up in our two.

Anyway. Still at work, although I've handed most things off to my sassy replacement, so there's not a lot left for me to do besides clean up, clean out, and make sure the baton is sanitized when I pass it off. Yawnsville, to be sure.

I'm about to call Monica and see what gives. I'll keep you posted.
