J surprised me with tickets to see Bret Michaels at The Palms on Saturday night.

Is it sad that I’m really excited?

I’ve been very sick the last couple of weeks. Between that, the issues with the house and the fact we officially hit the 18 month mark since J and I have seen each other, I’ve been feeling pretty morose. J and I have argued a lot and I’ve been touchy with everybody else. I have a lot of issues surrounding his going back to the USA that I don’t know will ever be resolved completely, but enough of that ...

Today is a good day and I feel a lot more upbeat than I have in weeks.

Kinda looks like we might have a buyer for the house. Sort of.

My parents are looking at taking it off our hands at a reduced price and finishing the renovations themselves (easier when the place is empty). They’ll then put it on the market, take out their expenses and giving us the difference of the final sale price. Hopefully they can pull it off and we might be able to leave in as little as six or seven weeks.

Fingers crossed!

She Said: Why do you love me? Be specific.
He Said: You and I were destined to grow old together. Or make each other old. One of those two.

So my husband broke the cardinal rule.

He informed me that I was only angry at him because I was PMSing. His calendar said so.

First of all, is it scary that even though I haven’t seen him in 15 months, he still knows my menstrual cycle better than I do?

Second of all, what makes him so damn sure that it’s PMS and that he’s not just an ass? I have plenty enough on my plate with fixing up this house and dealing with the kids, while he sits there constantly offering his bright ideas and criticisms. I have every right to be mad at him, PMS not withstanding!

So tonight, I threatened to send him the kids the second their passports arrived back from the Consulate. He told me he thought that was a good idea.

Apparently, he’s in crawl mode.

So we chose the most expensive house. Because I’m good like that.

We probably would’ve decided yesterday, but we were having one of our patented squabbles. Marital bliss, I tell ya ...

The name of the street is awesome. Catalina Harbor. Yes, Harbor. In the middle of the desert. Perhaps the city planners are going on Jae’s theory that California will fall into the ocean and it’ll become beach front property.

Trying hard not to get our hopes up, but tentatively optimistic. Though one of the other places we (as in the Royal We) looked at yesterday and were considering went inactive today. Knowledgeable real estate agents, ftw!

I’m still a little mad at J, so J’s Mom, if you’re reading this, here’s something for you.

He Said: I’m about ready to go down to the State Department and offer sexual favors to anyone who can get you here faster.
She Said: I think they’d prefer money.

She said: Do you want some wine tonight?
He said: Sure. You’re easy when you’re drunk.
She said: You’re better looking when I’m drunk.

He said: I had this awful dream last night.
She said: Poor thing ... what was it?
He said: You were chasing me around with a knife.
She said: Really?
He said: Yeah.
She said: What’d you do??

He Said: Y’know baby, you still have an hourglass figure.
She Said: I know. Pity it’s running on a 24 hour clock.

Bridget Jones’ Diary was on the idiot box tonight, and I was reminded of this exchange the first time we watched the movie together.

He said: Would you do that?
She said: Do what?
He said: Run outside in your undies to chase me, like she did.
She said: In the snow?
He said: Yeah. Would you?
She said: Shit no!
He said: Why not?
She said: Cos you’re not Colin Firth.
