What I'm Doing: After fucking off for the past three to four weeks, I finally got out and accomplished work on my brothers convertible tonight. It felt good when I came in around 10:00 and had met goals set. La ti fucking da!! Gotta get it painted and sorta done by the time I go to Dover Downs, Delaware on June 1st... ahhh vacation, I can't wait!!
File this under WTF?? So, in January, we had new neighbors move in to the left of me. Let me set the scene. I live in the fucking boonies folks, on a dirt road. If you look at a satellite pic of my neighborhood, you could see bear!! Anyways, these peeps move in next door in January, a young couple around 27 or 28, and HER mother. They appear to be real cool and do a SHIT load of work to the house. They get a couple really cute puppies and life is good, right?? Um no!! The chick, comes over tonite (the puppies love to come over and play with our dogs....) to retrieve her dog and proceeds to tell me that her basement is FULL of water (we have had Noah type rain here for the past 5 days) and she is trying to empty it. Being a dumb male I decide to ask a simple question: "Where is Steve??" She replies with "That fucking asshole moved out two days ago blah blah blah blah and I gotta sell the house Blah blah blah blah......" I was like whoa!! WTF?? After she left I began to analyze their situation: They bought this house for $250K, had to have her mom co-sign (I never heard of a cosigned mortgage) and have done nothing but buy,buy,buy,buy!! they bought a 26' camper, she bought a ricerocket motorcycle, he bought a dirtbike... I wonder how they will ever get out of the debt they are in??? Its pretty obvious they are pretty fucked. Its kind of a shame too because they would have made great neighbors, they kept their nose outta our business, respected privacy but liked to have fun. I will miss them. Of course they could get back together this weekend, who the fuck knows?? right??
Tid bits:
Flood insurance: Why is it not law that if you live anywhere that it "could" flood you must have flood insurance?? Thats all I'm hearing on the news when they do those sappy "talk to Joe Somebody in front of his flooded house" interviews. "I don't know (sobbing pathetically) what I'm gonna do, I don't have flood insurance" They make you pay PMI if you don't put enough $$ down, why the fuck don't they make you carry flood insurance?? I live on top of a hill, the highest point in my neighborhood so I don't have it. My basement is also dry!!
I went to my nieces graduation party Saturday night, my whole family (sibs, anyways) were there and we took group pics. I am the youngest, I look the oldest!! I gotta get a compy that excercises for me!!!
