Does anyone have 1.8 million to spend on a cute little bungalow by the beach? (What? Too much? But the owner re-introduced it to the market for $80,000 less! C’MON! WIMPS!)
Great! Could you buy it and continue to rent it to a very nice couple with a very big baby?
Thanks a million.

June 27, 2007 at 1:13 pmI was wondering whatever happened with the impending sale. I would HATE having random people going through my house at will.

June 27, 2007 at 2:34 pmUgh…This happened to me in the house I was BORN and grew up in till I was 13 or so. Greedy landlord waited until we (finally…with our own scraped-together money) re-tiled and carpeted our entire house – and than put it on the market. Selling points included, “brand-new tile and carpet” – and we had strangers traipsing through the house for months.
Hoping you’ll find a great new house soon!

June 27, 2007 at 2:49 pmOn a completely random subject…I assume the google ads are random and you have no say in what runs? It’s so funny that there happens to be one for “Conservative Blogs” and then two spots down “George Bush Quotes…Is Bush the Dumbest President?” I might click on the 2nd.

June 27, 2007 at 3:09 pmI had wondered what happened to the earlier sale. I was secretly hoping that you guys were able to make a purchase. I hope it all works out for you guys and that you aren’t bothered by to many agents. They just give me a rash.

June 27, 2007 at 4:29 pmI think you need to get a lot of cats and dogs and make them pee all over the house, pronto. Surely no one will want it then! Now, you might not want to live there either after my plan. Surely someone on this blog can come up with a more clever form of sabotage?

June 27, 2007 at 4:31 pmSo, are you saying that the old “this house is haunted” trick won’t work, like it…oh wait…it never worked on sitcoms, either. Dang.

June 27, 2007 at 5:23 pmYikes. That blows.

June 27, 2007 at 5:39 pmDude, but your stuff looks SO GOOD IN THAT HOUSE. Where are you going to find another place where your stuff looks like it BELONGS?
Sadly this is not ever going to be an issue for us. We could move into a dumpster and our stuff would still look pretty good.
Now back to exercising my drunk face for BlogHer.

June 27, 2007 at 9:21 pmWith regards the the detailed intricacies of your life, I don’t ever recall reading about your road trip home and the Texas State Trooper/Ranger…I was looking forward to that post. I hope you don’t have to move.

June 28, 2007 at 5:52 amThat is some shitty shit. But look on the bright side…at least you don’t live in Ohio. *points to self* Yeah? I knew that would help, always does.

June 28, 2007 at 6:38 amOh, Wito can totally help you with this. Any time there is a “last-minute showing,” or ANY showing really, just leave one of his stinky dirty diapers somewhere discreet, so that the house reeks like shit and no can see it. And let him go all Rubin ‘Hurricane’ Carter on the living areas so that your joint is a mess. Maybe it will discourage potential buyers.
Or you could just go straight for the heart and leave a framed 8X10 glossy of Wito’s sweet face on the kitchen counter, along with a childishly scrawled note that says only, “please don’t take my house away, or I will have to live in the car and the car makes me cry.” (Make sure the Lexus isn’t in the driveway or this sympathy ploy might fail).

June 28, 2007 at 9:50 amI don’t understand why you are not a stylist to the stars and raking in 1.8 easy piesy.
the hair advice, the delicious margarits, the cute & funky necklaces?! forgetaboutit!
speaking of booze, can you post the whoorlgarita recipe – or am I missing it somewhere? gracias.

June 29, 2007 at 2:01 pmUgh, that is so lame. I thought it was a done deal the last time he took it off the market.
Hope it takes forever to sell and you find something WAY better in the meantime. :)

June 30, 2007 at 6:29 pmHi Whoorl,
That sucks–I’m sorry! I remember you mentioning it a while back and wondered what had happened. Hope you guys find something more stable or that he changes his mind before all the intrusive showings.
