The move from... someplace bad.
Jul. 22nd, 2003 09:29 amOkay. This is Erin, checking in. Yay.
With a.... lovely story about our move.
Okay. We'd loaded up the van, and started heading from Illinois out to Vegas, to the house we'd allll set up to rent last month.
Hoo-ah. Moving road trip.
The morning of the second day, we were in New Mexico.
The cell phone rings.
It is the land management company we'd rented the house from.
Apparently the lady who owned the place... Had gone behind everyone's back, disregarded the lease contract we'd signed, as well as the contract she had with the land management company...
Changed the keys... And sold the house.
This, of course, after we'd diverted our mail there, gotten all the utilities set up, blah, blah, yakkity smackity.
This, of course, leaves us feeling... rather ill. It was rather like a bad movie.
So we get to Vegas that evening, check into a hotel, and start the process of house hunting.
All over again.
THANKFULLY we found another house. Which I'm sitting in right now.
We got internet last night, and our furniture arrives tomorrow.
Phone gets connected tomorrow, too.
However, no gas- or, therefore, hot water- until Thursday.
Hence... Bleh.
Yes. That was, in short, the Move From Hell.
Much with the hell.
Guh.
But yes. There WILL be lawyers getting involved in this.
*goes looking for CFTC pics so's she can Squeeeeeeeeeeee more*
