Some bits and pieces from the weekend that I forgot to share with you the other day:
1) I was in the liquor store (No! Really!) when I heard the song "Brick" from Ben Folds Five. And I thought to myself, "Well, isn't that a nice welcome song, just for me!" Then I heard it start over again. That's when I realized that it was my cell phone ringing. Sure wish I could figure out how to make my phone just Ring!
2) We got our second call in a month from someone wanting us to deliver a message to the neighbors next door. We don't know them (they're the ones who had the three dogs that ran loose so we had to spend $7 $7,000 putting a fence around our yard only to have all three of their dogs die within a few months of the fence going up. People of the Twin Cities, you know who you are, keep your dogs in your own yards. No matter how precious they are to you. Because to me, they're just a dog waiting to be delivered to Animal Control) and we refuse to deliver the message. Thor googled something like Phone Message Neighbors only to discover that it's probably a Collection Agency and that they are probably tens of thousands of dollar in debt.
3) The next time they call, I'm going to ask them to send me a Cashier's Check for $500 and that then I'd be happy to deliver their message as my time is so very valuable
4) That same day as the second phone call a post for a For Sale sign when up in their yard. I'm just waiting for the sign to be attached to it before I get too excited. I'm also tempted to move it across the street, to the Franks & Beans yard. They don't plan on moving but if an offer is made maybe they'd consider it?
