House inspection went well. A couple of circuit breakers were double loaded or something, so they want to add breaks, and they want to put those self-breakering plug things in the kitchen and baths. The house needs insulation, but we expected that. The garage door opener is an old one, so they want a newer one with the safety features. That's it.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
That's it? That's fantastic!!

That is amazingly appalling.
Eta: msbelle's news good; proposed law bad.

Yeah, I can just see it. "I just came here to ski!" "pregnant wombs shouldn't be skiing!" "but I didn't realize I was pregnant" "yeah, that's what they all say..."

Yeah, I think we are going back to the seller asking for $500 in concessions and let us do the work. It will probably be more like $1200 of electrical we'll do, but our realtor thinks that if we ask for much more than $500 they will reject it.
I need to research eco insulation.
We may also look at relocating the hot water heater now that we know there is also a gas line in the garage. That may be too much money right now, though. If we did move it, I would gain another hall closet which would be awesome.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
How dare you ski when there's a possibility you might be pregnant?

Woohoo, i'm safe! Buy maybe I should still worry. Just in case. What was that? Sex Ed what?

"how many offensive cliches about the South can we cram into XX seconds?"
I would agree that they were cliches. I just didn't find them offensive.
Just rewatched, and I can see how someone might take offense. It's just...even with the racism stuff...it's almost a gothic...and the raunchy sex...and...
Here watch this and have some of this to eat!
