^^ You could say that again.

It's unbelievable to me what people do with their animals and their kids. 

I just watched Awake with Hayden Christensen and Jessica Alba, I thought this movie was gonna suck, it was actually really good.

Independence Day is one of my favorite movies.    Last week or the week before last on Encore they aired a 2:40:00 version of this film.   It must have been more like a workprint, it had all these scenes I had never seen before, it was long but it was really cool to see the scenes they didn't use.   Some of them I can see why and others it explains more of the scenes they did use.

I watched Micheal Clayton, it was okay.   It didn't really lite a fire under me to keep me 100% interested.

That's exactly how it was here when me and my husband were house hunting in 2000.   It was a major sellers market, so much so that people that were selling their house without real estate were actually having people walk into their house and write down a bid on a sign in sheet, can you believe that!!!  I was disgusted and then our real estate agent was able to get us in to see a house first in the town we wanted.
The woman was having a house built and needed to wait a couple months and since we were living in my parents basement at the time, we were willing to wait 8 months, plus she didn't want alot of people walking through her house so we lucked out big time.

Now here it's a buyers market but houses aren't selling at all really.   The prices are sky high, higher then they were in 2000 but no way near the bidding wars like it was.

Get this, a house that is one house away from me is up for sale, the real estate agent had a key and thought the owner wasn't home to show this couple the house, they walk in and the owner is dead in the bathroom from a heart attack.   Can you believe that.   So sad and so fucked up for that couple as well as the real estate agent all at the same time.
