My Weekly Venting
I didn't post yesterday because I was livid and miserable...not to mention holding off on my weekly apartment rant. Not only am I a crazy cat lady, I'm also apartment obesessed. But I guess when you're about to drop thousands of dollars into something, you reserve that right. I have no excuse for the cat fetish, though.
I found out yesterday that there's a 99.9% chance that I will not close this week. Though it will probably only be a difference of a few days, this sent me into a full-blown tizzy, as my anxieties have been riding high these days and I just want this whole mofo process over with.
Apparently, the bank was not finished processing my UCC filing (whatever that is...I can't remember) and I can't close without it done. I shoud probably set the scene:
- I'd just spent the weekend packing the kitchen and living room
-
- I'd just spent two hours on the phone transferring bills into Cheesebus' name/opening new accounts
-
- I'd just hired movers for Monday
-
- My parents were coming into town this weekend to help me move
-
- The lock on my interest rate ends on Monday, which means that I will probably have to pay a fee or risk re-locking, even though it's not my fault
Suffice it to say, I was not happy when my lawyer brought me the news. I spent most of last week wishing it was this week...now I'm about to do the same thing once more. You'd think that, since ShitiBank has had two months to get this stuff done, it would have happened by now.
Sheesh.

A few more items for setting the scene:
- We'd just offered my room to a new person (this is a good thing, though still stressful
-
- I'd just ordered some things for the apartment and had one of them delivered to the new place...where I will now not be residing when it arrives
-
- All of my cooking shit is packed...and, of course, now that's all I want to do to make myself feel better
-
Growl.

that blows! i hope the bank gets off its ass and gets the filing outta the way (which sounds like a lot of bureaucracy-type paperwork). you want me to go down to the bank and rough em up a little?
maybe there's a bright side, now you have an excuse to eat out every day until you really move.

goodness, go beat them up. or send mr. bones to finish the job.
i wish that they could just give me the keys on spec...
eating out is fun, though cooking always helps relax me, along with packing (for some odd reason). something tells me that i'll wind up packing the cat into a box if i go that route...and won't be able to find anything!

Wow...did you get a chance to ream out the people at the bank? I'd be livid too. Vent some frustration on them, da bastards!

Nope. You don't get to talk to the bank directly. Everything is done via lawyers. It's really frustrating, like an endless game of telephone...except it's your life and money riding on things, not theirs.
