Haha...not really. :-) Things are okay really, just...annoying. The lawyer apparently screwed something up in the contract (something complicated and crappy and involving a title search on the house or some such thing) so tomorrow is NOT going to be the day we close on the house. Grr. S'okay I guess; Greg said something about it being better to sign everything at the end of the month anyway. *shrug* I'm filing it in the "not my problem" category for now.
On a happy note we're heading back up to Toronto on Saturday to check out that amazing Chinese Lantern Festival again before it ends. Look! I even found a website here! It's cool as it has the pictures at night that I failed to take. Not this time though...I'm armed with a fully charged camera! F-list be warned; you're about to be bombarded with bright lovely dragons and phoenixes! According to the site, this is the largest lantern festival outside of Asia...isn't that cool?
This time Greg is going...I really hope he likes it. We don't get to do much together. I wish we could travel more often.
Okay! That's enough babbling. I hope to be finishing up mask orders tonight so I can start all my wonderful dragon projects...really looking forward to making those!

Closing etc.
The house is kicking my butt - I've lost five or so pounds, and I'm so sleep deprived that my co-workers aren't even telling me how bad I look anymore. They're just not saying anything. I'm here in my cube from 8 to 5, then I drive to Burlington and we work on the house until about 11:00pm, drive home, catch something packaged for dinner and fall into bed after midnight. Then repeat. Every workday since September 1. The weekends are worse. I'll send you all the gory details when I have some time. Painting and moving during the same month as corporate fiscal year-end was a BAD choice. I came back from Pennsic behind on the departmental billing, and it's only gotten worse. But anything that isn't in the hands of the mouse's accountants by Thursday will be charged against an accrual account and can be done in a more leisurely fashion. Ya know, if I'd wanted to be an accountant...
Lots of small demolition, lots and lots and lots of painting, some light wallpaper stripping, more painting, and now we can start moving. Only ten more days until the lease is up...
Think strong thoughts towards Connecticut - I'm going to fall down like a marionette with the strings cut when this is all over.
