Class of 2015!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Preapproved! :soexcited:

Cougs, is Wonkaland near me? I think I know what school you might be calling that, considering its location. 😀

Good luck today, Cliff!

^We're going to dinner with Cliff tonight. Woot!

Yay, how exciting! I know I told Geeks before, but I'm a little obsessed with interior design and HGTV.

Best of luck to you today Cliff!!! :luck::luck::luck:
 
Daisy it was so funny. I think I surprised the mortgage guy with how much I knew about the process. Apparently I learned more useful info from HGTV than I thought!
 
Good luck today, Cliff! Hope it's awesome - I toured there and really liked it.

Congrats on the pre-approval GC, that's huge.

Our car is in the shop. Le boyfriend is doing his best to talk them into doing it for free since it's a known issue with Toyota transmissions - we *might* get away without having to shell out 3K between that and his superduper mega warranty thing.
 
I have heard brokers can be shady. He is an originator working right with the lending company. Came highly recommended; he did the mortgage for both my realtor (who I have known since grade school) and her sister. I'm really pleased with the rate he gave us; it's less than I expected, and what we were approved for is a bit more than what we originally intended to spend and in the price range of what we've been looking at. It's also an FHA loan, which we need. My expectations have already been exceeded so I'm really just ready to start looking at places, ya know?
word. i just got burned by that preapproval-->approval process. pretty sheisty.

house or apt?
 
Ugh. I hope that doesn't happen. I'm skeered.

And it's for a hoooooouse! I am SO sick of renting!

How exciting! I would love to buy a house, but don't think that will happen anytime soon. You'll have to keep us updated on the broker deal. I was thinking about going that route, so might have to ask you all about it when it's done and over with. 😀
 
Heck yes it is. I spend like 5+ hr/wk cleaning. God forbid something break and I have to fix it lol. But I'm sure geek's husband/will train chicklet to clean after themselves... unlike my 19 y/o brother.
the fixing things is the bigger pain in my butt. but it's kind of fun if you have time
 
Hubster is pretty handy. He and FIL did a lot of work in his childhood home, and they owned the property where his grandmom lived (it was a duplex apartment and they also managed the second floor unit).

Edit: And he's actually the one more open to a home that needs more work. If he wants to do it, I will be happy to help, but it'll be mostly up to him.
 
Can I please just have one nice normal week? No vomiting dogs, no magically appearing impending deadlines at work, no one going into labor, no one dying, no vomiting humans, no migraines, no friends getting breast implants, no birthdays, no meetings, no on-call shifts, no accidents?

Please?
 
Ugh, such a crap day.

I just got my course audit back from the college board, and they rejected it with like a page full of "issues" that need to be addressed and are insufficient.

Funny thing is, it's pretty much exactly the same as the #2 prep school in the country, whose AP teacher I work very closely with on things, and who said most of the teachers share syllabi when they start, so just tweak it and turn it in. WTF?

I went and looked up one of the issues they had with the syllabus, and checked out their example syllabi, and it looks almost exactly like my section. How much more clearly can you get than "Students will spend a minium of 1 95 minute period per week in a hands-on laboratory environment?"

*sigh*

sorry, letting off steam. My classroom caught fire this morning due to an electrical issue and now this. I want to go back to sleep.

This crap day needs to end. I thought last Monday was supposed to be the crap day!??

I took a nap....and had a horrible dream that I was restudying for the MCAT.

Sorry you two, I hope your days turn around a bit. If nothing else, it's hump day, so we're more than halfway done with this week.

...and hopefully this will cheer you up too:

I think the crap day has officially ended.



Super jealous that I am not out with Geeks, Mr. Geeks, Chicklet, and cliff right now, though.

Come here!! I'll cook you some of my food...pshh better than Geeks' 😀
 
If I had tomorrow off, I would totally take you up on that🙂


I think I am going to order some celebratory food. Any ideas what I should get?


you can never go wrong with chinese. It's fattening and always makes you feel good (for at least a little while, until you realize how much you just ate)

orr now's a good time to try some Korean BBQ

I had a super dissatisfying pizza a couple of days ago. Maybe I should fix that mistake with a good pizza.
 
mmmm chinese food... I've been craving some for, well, like a week... but still!
 
I have nothing in the way of cute furry animals to share. Only this.

And now, bed. 6:30am teleconference. joyyyyy
 
HOW the HELL does Social Network beat Inception for best picture and best director at the golden globes! it makes NO sense.
 
social network was awesome.

Why did I watch that Mocha video?🙂


Maub....that was awful🙂


Daisy.....I have no recent town stories. At least, none that keep up the pretense that I am a lady.
 
What the heck was that.

I need some entertainment while I do boring homework. Someone regale me with stories of trips to "the town" or something.

I have a story Daisy, but I shouldn't say it on SDN as it relates to SDN in a way.... Cougs already knows the story, so I'll gladly share lol.
