Odds n' Ends

So we got an offer on the house.
Probably the first person that looked at it. It's contingent on if their house sells.
Good news is that we can keep it up on the market and if someone else makes an offer, we can take theirs and can the first one.
Other than that, D and I got away this weekend to Greenville, SC and stayed at a bitchin' hotel with indoor pool, internet, and a nice atrium bar with a cool bartender, Janice.
There was a wedding when we arrived and the mofos were out in full force.
Big hats, hamhocks on paper plates, purple suits, pimp hats.
Needless to say, it was a HOT MESS (D and my fave term right now).
We went to the Freedom Weekend Aloft festival in Anderson, SC on Sunday night and saw Rob Thomas with Collective Soul and a young rock band opening that were pretty good.
Yeh, D and I are big Rob Thomas fans.
He put on one HELLUVA show. Click here to see footage D shot with the digital camera (beware sound quality). As you can see, we got up pretty close and it was in an outdoor ampitheater.
Drunks, rednecks, farting boozehounds, Republican housewives, the whole nine. We had a blast! Made a lot of friends that night (prolly some enemies).
It was a great time and a good chance to get away from this house crap.
Today, D was home sick and I didn't do much but put my resume up on Monster, Careerbuilder, Hotjobs, and bothered the hell out of a company in Jax that I applied with mid-May. (Crossing my fingers on that one).
I also need to (even though I don't know if this is the right forum) give a big THANK YOU to my pal Steph, who really made my night when she called and was telling me she was "selling" me and my art to her employer for possible freelance stuff down the line. She said her boss was saying she would consider my work for possible future designs in the company's Buffy tshirt license line.
Miss Steph Esquire, you don't know how cool that made me feel by doing that for me. You didn't have to, but I appreciate it GREATLY!
Thank ya!
And also peeps: Did you all know that Miss Steph and her beau Joshua Calvert are registered with Target?
D and I were farting around in the Target in Greenville and I just, on a whim, decided to check out their bridal computer and lo and behold, our future newlyweds were in the system.
We printed that shit out and read it all through the store! You guys got some cool stuff on there!
Also, I think we mighta printed too many copies out cuz one of the machines wasn't working so I tried printing on it again. That thing was prolly spittin' paper out 9to5 style!
