black widow: mmmm lady i wouldn't want to get near
those venom blasts though the thought of mating
with a widow does get me wondering what's so
cracked up about life.

If it's a little cold in your neck of the woods...

It's because hell froze over. We signed. Closed. All we're doing is waiting on a check.

Also, I have accepted a new position at work. Started Monday. I am the Director of Communications for ISSI (Integrated Systems Solutions, Incorporated). I work as a management analyst on base, and my collateral duties include contract management for the Navy as well as building and branding ISSI.

Five years of service with Sabre are over. I miss the good times, but they had become fewer and farther between. I look forward to my new challenges.

And we closed. I can breathe. C'mon check... I have home improvements to make, and my car to pay for.

For now though, I think I'll indulge in something I haven't done in seven weeks. I think I shall sleep the whole night through.

Another attempt at closing tomorrow. Another day to drive myself batty with worry and strife.

Today I said goodbye to the co-workers I've had for five years, along with my bosses. My friends took me to lunch. I didn't expect to be as melancholy as I am about it all.

Had a great dinner at a new Vietnamese restaurant. I experienced ginger chicken, Pad Thai, and Pho soup all at "the Hot Noodle."

I still think that name sounds like a porn movie title.

Goodnight, kids.

No closing. Again. I have worn out my vocabulary of four letter words. I have said "fuck" more times today than I care to even think about. People are incompetent, or liars, or both.

I can't start drinking either because I won't stop. We'll now TRY for Monday. In the meantime, I hear the giant sucking sound of all my dreams for this house, as well as my credit rating being taken away.

I'm so mad I don't know whether to scream, or just find a corner and cry.

On refinancing and mortgages and closings and delays....

F this. Seriously, how the hell does ANYONE put up with the delays and reschedules and crap? I can't breathe, my chest hurts and the only way I've gotten through tonight is by consuming half a bottle of Shiraz wine. Be glad that I'm not on tequila, because my typing would really suck then.

We're supposed to sign on Friday. Then three days for recision, puts us funding next Thursday. It's only been FIVE FREAKING WEEKS since we were supposed to close. The mortgage is late because we didn't pay it, thinking we'd close. We've got plans to do stuff and can't because we can't seem to close.

If this closing doesn't happen, there will be a news story in which I am prominently featured. Going postal will seem like child's play if they screw this up again.

I have in my head a wonderful posting on majestic western mountains, and lush green plains and my thoughts as I flew home from Vegas... I even have plans to go there again, nebulous though they may be... but I can't do any of that because my stress level is crushing the breath from my lungs.

By the way, did I mention I've been laid off from work? October 15th I end my five year career at Sabre Systems. It's been a wonderful ride...

Pardon me while I go throw up.
