this christmas is a failure so far. i just got one of the things for brian in the mail, and now i think he already has it or at least has seen it before…so it’s not as exciting as it was. tho i got excited now looking at it, that i might just give it to him tonight. then james already knows one of his gifts, and i really really really thought it was going to be super special that i had been so awesome and stumbled upon this thing that i was sure he didnt know about…nope. wrong again. and i only managed to get 1 of the 2 things i wanted for lei, which is a shame. i’m set to snipe a bunch of other auctions for lei and adr tonight.

so i went to look at the 3 houses in NT today with my mom. first was falconer, big house, i liked it, but it had issues….definitely needs a new roof that i wouldn’t be able to afford, had oil heat, semi scary stone basement, with scary asbestos insulated pipes, and no garage. and the dog of the house almost peed on my mom…just missed her leg and got all carpet. haha. dogs are really not making a good case for their species when it comes to my family….

2nd was on oelkers…way way way smaller than it looked. too small really. miniature kitchen, seriously can’t fit 2 people in it at the same time, miniature rooms…generally just too small. which is a shame cuz it was so cute.

3rd house on frederika we didn’t even go in. got there, and the realtor was like, no. he said no to all 3 houses, mainly because the prices of them were too high for what i’d be getting, too high for the things i’d need to fix as soon as i bought the house (like the roof) and he said there are alot of houses for sale in my price range, and if i’m in no hurry, than we can find others that are better. he’s supposed to look up a bunch and send them to me tonight, and might go out looking at more with him tomorrow. seems like a good guy so..that’s good

the one thing i hate about buffalo winters is the wind. if it wasnt windy every single day, winter here would be the best thing ever. even 7 feet of snow is fine with me if its not windy hah.

and now for something completely different…

there are some things that shouldn’t be messed with. just as inxs should not try to continue as a band without michael hutchence, and really really should not be having a reality show to try out new lead singers (tho i haven’t heard anything about it recently)….queen should not try to regroup with a new singer…queen without freddie mercury is just a good band, and not a phenomenal band, and it just doesn’t seem right…
