The Nighttime, Sniffling, Coughing, Aching, Stuffy Head So It'll Fuck Up Yer Regular Work Day Drama

February 28, 2003

The week was a rough one. Work was steady, but not as crazy as I usually make it out to be. Things were rough cuz I have a cold. Yeah, shed a tear with me on this one.

I never get sick. (Knockin’ on my faux birch veneer Ikea desk) Well, once a year I come down with something…but I usually just sort of power through it, telling myself I’m okay and more-or-less psyching myself out. No big whup.

This goddamn bug has brought me down in a week of big developments.

Last night I met with Tommy Tucker and we talked through the basics of buying a house. I’m in good hands here, so don’t fret. Tommy Tucker is good people.

This afternoon I sat down with one Carol Flanagan of Northwest Mortgage to get the ball rolling with the “Pre-Approval Process” in signing my life away. I left with a pile of options, a small education and have some thinking/reading to do concerning the numbers.

I’m horribly terrified, but completely excited to do this, and do it right. I feel like the whole decision to “go for it” is completely positive, and will resonate later on, investment-wise. How about that? Buying a house. Whoa.

I’d like to thank CINCO’S Chris, Dean and Goo for covering for me as the week wore down…I should be back for the attack–100 percent–on Monday morning.
