Stupid fucking government loan and the government being too fucking slow with getting their information. No communication on the buyer's end. The title company had to call them to see what was happening. They say it's "2 to 3 days out". ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!
We've put stuff off on our new house until we get the house sold. We're now 2 weeks out from the original closing date. We're looking like jackasses to our contractors.
ARGH! I'd walk away from the deal if I could. Fuck 'em.
I'm so sorry. That is so frustrating.
Which type of government loan is it? That is part of why we were nervous about the FHA loan process.
The whole buying and selling of homes is extremely stressful and I don't want to go through it again for at least 20 years so we had better be hella happy in this new place.

Shit, pixy, that sucks.
I cannot find the charger. I've literally torn my cube apart looking for it (like, hauled the bench/shelf/filing cabinet out into the hallway, removed everything from drawers, etc. etc.). I've asked the 3 people who had, at one point, borrowed the tablet. They don't have it. I have sent an email out to our dept list saying "If you wandered away with it, please return it." Crickets.
WTF MAN? I can't go back to the EVP like "Sorry, it's gone!"

GAH, that blows. Because you don't want to assume they still have it, but then you'd have to assume someone grabbed it. Any chance at all that cleaning staff might have stashed it? Or does IT have it?

I've re-asked my VP and another PM. They both politely looked thru their stuff.
I then was walking by another PM's desk and there's a charger sitting on her desk's bench combo. And I'm like... "Is this mine?" and now I'm thinking it IS. I think I remember her borrowing it.
We're at the beach. My 4 yr old bravely decided to go in the water in our inflatable boat and was SO excited. Less than a minute in, I attempt a handoff with my BIL and while no one is holding on to the boat a huge wave comes and flips the boat over and tumbles my 29 lb can't swim child ( with floaties, thank goodness) into the surf.
Motherfucking mother of the fucking year.
BIL and I decided she needed to get back on the horse so to speak so we plopped her back in despite her protests, and rode the waves for a bit. Eventually she was having fun. Then another wave caused her to crack heads with her cousin.
She may hate me now. #vacationfail
Well with the noggin bump she may not be able to remember not liking the water, #win.
I'm at the orthopedic getting those lumps in my wrist checked.
I also started having tooth pain since my cavity was filled. I have to go in later today. I have never had tooth pain before and I will honestly fall apart if I need a root canal. I've talked about my terror of the dentist here before.
Between these two things, I am actually, literally nauseous from nerves.
I get random tooth pain when I'm having sinus issues.
OMG I'm having this right now. The whole right side of my head feels like it's simultaneously being squeezed in a vise-grip while having a pick-axe driven into my eardrum. I'm in so much PAIN right now and I've ALREADY pretty much maxxed out on non-narcotic pain relievers for the day. I can't get in to my doctor until tomorrow morning. This blows.

Final Update to sister's issues: NO CANCER!!! She does have to have surgery to remove the blockage, but with her past cancer history and where the blockage is, there was some suspicion is could be a new cancer. Alas, it is not.

Because bitching about house buying/selling seems on trend for this thread...
On Thursday our mortgage loan person said she needed some more info and additional signed forms ntl Monday. She said she sent the additional forms va FedEx. No FedEx package on Fri, no FedEx Sat--DH left her a message. No FedEx yesterday, DH left two messages and sent the info we had. No response. And the FedEx truck just drove by without stopping. It all may not matter because of the flood (which no one has shown up yet to deal with) but damn it, don't tell us we have a firm deadline then drop off the face of the earth.

But then.... why not respond to my email?
Supremely shady. ANY chance your VP returned it to the wrong desk?
Does anyone know a remedy for plantar fasciitis/bone spurs?
Would they have the same remedy?
For PF, rest is important but rolling your foot constantly on a hard ball (as close to a golf ball as you can tolerate) helps a lot. It can take 6 months to fully heal.
I know for sure I have bone spurs, and I'm reading that they can lead to PF.

Some sort of Native American loan. They're waiting on information from the Office of Native American Programs.

Do not wear heels until it gets better. Walking on heels makes the pain so much worse.

Argggg. That is a new one for me. Hadn't heard of that one.

Olympic Paint Plus Primer One is a lie. Okay, sure, some spots only needed one coat, but I've got ~1/2 pint left and about 1/2 gallon worth of spots that need two coats. grumble grumble grumble.

HA! No root canal needed either!!!!! Dentist suspects bite was off on the filling or tooth is just irritated from having the filling replaced. The X-Ray was all clear. ::skips:: I am so lucky today I should buy a lottery ticket!

WEIRD. Again, I've never had sinus anything so I didn't know this stuff happened. Feel better, racegrrl714.

I had a realization today that I have friends in their 40s. This should not be shocking as I'm almost 35 and 10 years out of law school, but it made me feel really old.

Thanks for all of the thoughts and prayers.
This is FANTASTIC. Such, such a relief. So happy for your family!
About 4 months ago, I submitted a request for my library to obtain a digital copy of The Thirteenth Tale. Read a sample last year, loved it, but never felt like paying the retail Kindle price. Got a notice that it just arrived, whohoo!

@koko would you do me the honor of being the official anger translator or "Luther" in the common parlance, during the meshaliu presidency? I believe your CAPS CAPS CAPS style of communication makes you uniquely qualified to hold this position.
I had a realization today that I have friends in their 40s. This should not be shocking as I'm almost 35 and 10 years out of law school, but it made me feel really old.
Hmmmmmm I'm 45.
It was more that one particular person I assumed was around my age (our kids are almost exactly the same age) and turns out she's like 7 years older.
Probably realistically should've made me feel like a baby, but instead it made me realize that people in their 40s are my peers now. And have been for a while.

Yes, yes we are I've been feeling really old lately as well.
It was such an odd realization. When I was fresh out of law school and 25, people my age seemed so much more experienced and adult-ish. And now I'm one of those people.
A younger coworker recently complimented my style and when I told her where I predominantly shop, she was like "oh, the expensive stores." It made me wonder when I made the jump to thinking WHBM is affordable. Probably when I made the jump onto adult world.
