Why Are You Calling Me!


OK, I was going to wait to do this, but people are forcing me to reveal this a little earlier. We are looking to buy a house... again. So I was looking for property values and since the house is technically in a small rural county, they don't have any of that information on the web. To be honest, they barely have anything on their webpage.


So I go to Realtor.com to look for property value, because I know the house is not worth that much. Well, you have to go through some hoops to get the value; including a page for buying a car and selling a house. Stupid me did not use a fake phone number. As I am driving to pay for my car licence I get a call from a chevy dealer. He thinks I'm interested in a Aveo. I inform him that it was the first car I could put down so I could move on to find the property value. Two hours later another Chevy guy calls me another hour later I get a call from a lady asking if we need help selling our house. Obviosuly we don't have a house and who would want an Aveo?


This is what I get for using the internet to find information.

March Madness: Where Are you?

I stayed up late last night cleaning out the hard drive on my laptop so that I can record today's game and post. I've been asleep less than two hours and my work phone starts to ring. I wake up from the aether,

Me: Hello?
Producer: Where are you?
Me: Ummm, I don't know let me think. Uhhhh Winston Salem?
Producer: Oh, so your not editing today? Ok bye
Me: ok bye.

I normally work the weekend morning editing shift, but obviously the message that I'd not be there didn't get to everyone. Took me almost an hour to get back to sleep. With that I have less than an hour till check out. I probably should stay an extra night, but I need to save as much money as I can for the New Jersey hotel. I think that may cost a little more than this room. I hope it's better too.
