The last house fell through because I am not Christian enough.
I say that because the owner asked me about a radio program that sounded vaguely familiar. When the owner told me that it was Christian radio, I replied "Yeah, we have a bunch of programs like that here."
I don't think that was the answer he was looking for. I'm kinda surprised he did not come right out and ask which church I intended.
He still took my information and said he would call Thursday or Friday.
I'm still waiting.
Anywhooo, I called him on Friday and he did not answer his phone. His personal phone message advises us all that, God loves us.
I'm still waiting on the call back.
I have no problem with a home owner that decides who they want living in their house. I wish this world would let people place an ad for exactly who they want WITHOUT fingers being pointed and that person being called racist, bigoted, or any other name. The ACLU, NAACP and the like should be disbanded.
For example: You don't want to rent to Jews. Fine, no problem here. There are other people that are willing.
Same with blacks, Hispanics, gays, ugly people, old people, whatever. This is not the 1950's. Don't bitch because one person won't give you something. Find that other person that will.
It's about a persons' comfort level. I personally am not comfortable with people that look like meth or crackheads. So by law, I should not be forced to be near them. Let alone be forced to allow them to reside on my property.
It's his property. He gets to choose his neighbor. I have NO problem with that. What I do have a problem with, is the fact that he lied to me. Do not placate me. If I am not what you want, then let me know so I can move on to other avenues.
Telling me you will call, gives me hope for the final piece of the puzzle to fall into place.
You wasted two days of my life and a pretty penny for the horse riding lessons I would have purchased from you.
We were not getting married, so therefore I am not required to carry the same yoke.
Anywhooo, I found another property and the game is afoot.
Fingers crossed.
Toes crossed.
And I tied the 5 dogs monkeys in knots, this time!
Ps. I'm not Jewish. That was used to illustrate my point.
Pss. Nothing wrong with being Jewish either, but I gotta tell ya a Jewish mother has nothing on a Catholic when it comes to guilt! HA!

So off I go to a new adventure in approximately 6 (count them, SIX!!) weeks.
I created this blog over a year ago and if I had told my life's tale...hoo boy, I would have made everyone want to throw themselves off a bridge. BUT, now I am back and I hope to make this little blog a chronicle of my soon to be ADVENTURE. And yes, it does need to be capitalized. I envision chuckles and excitement and wonder and M&M's and Mounds bars and...ah, but I do digress. I'm really not sure if anyone will take the time out of their day to read any of this, but just in case...HEY! THANKS!! Hope you stick around and enjoy the read!
