Random Encounters

 

These days life is simply moving too fast for me.  I miss the days when you could count on every day to be the same as the one before.  Apparently we're going to buy a house now.  Eeek.

On Saturday we went for a second round of looking at the houses on the market.  These were ones we picked out so we knew they would suit our tastes more.  Now without further ado I leave you with some of the better moments of the day.

BF:  There's a lot of open area out there, do you think it's a fire hazard?
Realtor:  Nah, there's fire breaks and sprinklers.  I think you're pretty safe.
(ten minutes later at the next house)
BF:  Do you think this could be a fire hazard?
Realtor:  No.
(ten more minutes...)
BF:  Now what do you think about the fire thing here?
Realtor:  Stop worrying about fire!

(upon visiting a Spanish-style house with lots of archways)
Me:  I really hate the arches for some reason.  Could we turn them into squares?
(long pause while the realtor looks around)
BF:  He doesn't know what to say to that.

Me:  Wow, I really like the huge built-in BBQ in the backyard.
Realtor:  Yeah , you could cook a lot of meat on this BBQ.
Me:  Yeah, hot dogs.
Realtor:  Um...I mean like real meat.  The raw kind.

Me:  This is nice but the master bedroom looks a little small.
Realtor:  Why do you need so much space in here.  Do you romp around a lot or something?
(long extended pause with some giggles)
Realtor:  Uh...I mean do you run around a lot...or something.
Me:  (chuckle) Yeah, we play tag a lot.
BF:  Yeah, freeze tag sometimes.
Me:  But since there's only two of us, sometimes we have to stand there for a long time until the other person comes back.

Yeah, house hunting is fun.  It's weird because you become very close to your realtor.  Like the family you never wanted.  Don't let them embarrass you into buying a house you don't like. Your the one who has to live in it.  Take your time.  You are paying them several thousand dollars to shut up and do the paperwork.  Good luck!
