Let the moving begin...or not

Well, yesterday was certainly interesting...

We had a prospective renter come look at the house at 11:30 am, agree to rent for one year starting on August 1 (Sunday), and promptly renege on the deal at around 10:00 pm. In the mean time, Michelle (aka my beautiful wife aka Mochelle aka baby deliverer extraordinaire aka future contributor to this blog?) and I embarked on a panicked frenzy of packing and cleaning. With the adrenaline rush induced by the sudden change in circumstances, we managed to box what seemed like half the house in a few hours. Our friend Matt (aka PhatMatt aka master kitchen packer aka dog sitting extraordinaire aka fitness guru aka security boss) came to our rescue with a veggie legend from Domino's (which I might add is a very solid chain pizza option), a bottle of Sprite, and some killer kitchen packing skills that I didn't know he possessed! That guy is like a freakin' jack of all trades. Pay attention ladies.

Anyway, so the end result was that the renters backed out and left us back at square one...with a half boxed up house. On the bright side, I get to play golf this weekend. On the not so bright side, we still need to unload the house before September.

Oh well, I'm marking this down as the first in what will certainly be a series of adventures and mishaps in the next year.

  1. Wow...all of a sudden I feel completely egotistical and self-important.
