Christina said I’m being lazy because I haven’t blogged in about a week. What has the world come to? OK OK… so I am lazy… I’ll admit it.

This week has been busier than usual. I feel like I haven’t been at my house in 2 weeks! Luckily it’s been hanging out with friends and such. Bree and her boyfriend broke up (thank GOD) so I’m happy about that.  Even though it’s a sad thing, it was the right decision for her to make and I’m glad because now I get to spend more time hanging out with her! Hi Bree! I’m sure you’re reading this.

So I found one thing I’m liking about the stimulus package. They are considering adding a large tax credit for first time home buyers, around $15,000! I’m like DO IT DO IT DO IT because that would be amazing. And would make me feel more confident that buying the condo is the right thing to do. This economy sucks for a lot of people but fortunately I haven’t been affected by it very much (*crosses fingers*), and in this instance I would actually benefit from the crisis.

 

To increase the bill’s focus on problems in the housing market, members of both parties are considering liberalizing and expanding a tax credit for first-time home buyers that was approved last year in other legislation but had little immediate impact.
Under the reformulation being discussed, the credit would be doubled, to $15,000, and it would not have to be repaid, as the earlier measure required. LA TIMES

 

Something like this would make me feel like it’s a sign that my decision is correct, even though I know I’m over-analyzing it. And I don’t know if I really agree with giving that huge of a handout to anyone, especially someone that is BUYING a house instead of being FORECLOSED ON… but I’m not gonna say anything and I’d still take it! WHO WOULDN’T! 

OK I’M DONE TALKING ABOUT THE CONDO!! Sorry, I’m obsessed. So work is going fabulous. I got the best news in the entire world yesterday, long story short it just makes my life 100% easier at work. They took away some of the goals that were impossible to obtain and stressing everyone out, and I can’t even begin to tell you how much the atmosphere has changed there! It’s so much more laid back and I actually don’t fear going to work anymore :)

I joined a gym yesterday, finally! I made my decision. It’s only $10 freaking dollars a month! And I can cancel anytime. It had a $40 start up fee, but oh well. That’s equal to 1 month at just about any other gym, so I’m OK with it. I’ll keep you guys updated on that.

Anyways… what’s up with everyone? Sorry I haven’t blogged in a while.

What?!? Bree and her boyfriend broke up? Congrats if you are buying a condo, sounds like your quota’s got reduced, I was wondering when and how corporations would reset expectations. Congrats on the gym, in my visit to Canada on a job hunt I am paying $12 for a one day pass.

Still shocked about Bree and her bf…

Bree, with encouragement from Beth, I thought I clearly established my superior mental abilities in my new, offshoot blog “Everybody is stupid but me”, at http://everybodyisstupidbutme.wordpress.com
Here you were thinking it was something sinister!
