still hunting....

Okay, so far there hasn't been a response for the bid on the last condo I wrote about. Considering our bid was pretty low and I haven't heard anything about if we got it or not, but I'm doubtful. But that's okay since we put 2 more bids out there on two more condos Ceaser found for us. One of the condos is in Newark in a very nice neighborhood again it's a three bedroom one and a 1/2 bath. the kitchen is small (but all I make is top raman so no biggie) and the counter tops are marble. The picked some odd colors to paint the inside, but that's easy to fix enough, it needs carpet and little things like that. It has a decent back yard that can accommodate a small dog, it has a washer and dryer (well the hook ups at least.) it's ground floor and the bedrooms are upstairs (the stairs are carpeted!) the bathroom upstairs is pretty ruff and theres a ceiling fan falling out because of water damage, but I'm sure it's fixable. However, I found a 9 mm shell in the window sill, so why this place seems safer than where I am ? LOL. Now the other condo that I Realllllly Like is way better (in my opinion) it's also a three bedroom, but has a 2 car garage and a back yard big enough for a mid sized dog and a front yard area! It also happens to be across from a fire station (wink wink nod nod). It's kind of ruff though, needs more work than the before mentioned condo. needs paint, carpet, kitchen and bathroom, but I adore it. so we put bids on both condos on Monday so I hope we hear about one of them soon.
In other news, I went on a date with a "doctor" a few weeks ago. His name is Art jeminez and he's pretty cute. he has his own practice in San Fransisco so that was nice, he took me to dinner and then ice cream and I rode in his fancy turbo sports car. So things were going pretty good till I asked him what kind of doctor he was. he tells me he is an alternative medicine doctor. humm and that means what I asked. his reply: "I heal people with crystals and re -align their chackras." He said this with a straight face. After I stopped laughing (okay I know that was rude) I asked him if people really paid him for putting rocks on them and listening to enya. Apparently they do because I just rode in a car worth more than 2 houses. He is a nice guy don't get me wrong, but I had to break the news to the parents that when I said I was going out with a doctor I meant a witch doctor. Now I'm all for the pretty crystals and stuff like that, i read my own tarot and check out my astrology pages, but if I have an axe in my forehead or swine flu, i don't need some rocks on my chest, I need an emergency room. *sigh* well, at least I can cross off doctor from my list, he actually had a white coat with the word doctor on it, I think it counts enough. Plus I already dated a fire fighter, a d.j., a wet back, a rock star, a guy with a missing toe, the single dad, a chemist from Morocco, an Afghan guy with a smelly car, a singing Algerian, a Portoriccan with gout, a young football player with a facial tick, a male model who ended up on meth, a retired chief duty Sargent, a Chinese chef, a guy who was married and didn't tell me, a guy who takes longer to get ready than I do, a stalker, an artist, a photogher and a harley dude. The only thing left is a trapeze artist, a wolf man and a police officer with a kelpto problem. yes I aim High.
even more news: So my amazing British (non gay) hair dresser excuse me, hair artist talked me into modeling for a calender he puts out for breast cancer research.ALL Sales of this calender go to the breast cancer research fund. So I agreed to be an alternate model in case someone backed out. I was stupid to think no one would back out, so now, to my hair artist's delight I am in because some lady has to go to her sons wedding that weekend. great. The theme of the calender is: calender girls (duhhh) so I will be dressed up in 40's or 50's style clothing and trying not to laugh as I pose trying to look sultry yet sweet. They will be doing hair and make up so I have to actually show up bare faced with out eyebrows *ahhh!* I'm excited to support my favorite cause, but not too thrilled someone will be putting a mascara wand close to my eyes. They choose which pictures make it to the calender so I may make it or not, either way I'm happy that I got to take some sort of part in it. If I don't look like a total dork I'll post the picture.....okay I would post it if I did look like a dork but yeah that will be my Sunday this week. I woke up with a huge zit between my eyes so they will have fun trying to cover that one up. LOL
Summer school is going okay, they put us at a school that is really nice, they actually have trees and flowers and cool people and bathrooms that aren't crawling with cockroaches. So despite the horrid heat and having to work the summer I'm actually quite happy there. Even though I have to look at tons of condos after work I have been oddly upbeat. Maybe "doctor" Art re-aligned my chakras when I wasn't looking. LOL

SO you must post a picture so we can see you in your sultry self!
