We go out again tomorrow to look at houses. We have a bit of a crush on one of them, but given our luck lately, we'll see it in person and realize it doesn't have plumbing. Or floors. Granite counters, sure, but no floors. None whatsoever. Just a bunch of joists and empty space over hard-packed dirt, where a family of possums cowers and hisses.
What is so goddamn special about granite counters anyway? That's another one of those things people install in houses, however ineptly, just so they can trumpet it in the MLS sheet: WOW!!!!!!!! GRANITE COUNTERTOPS IN KITCHEN!!!!!!!!!! or ****THIS IS A MUST SEE FANTASTIC UPDATES GRANITE COUNTERS COME HOME TO ORGASM TOWN**** or whatever.
I mean, granite counters are nice, but I'm pretty sure they don't merit that kind of excitement. ALL NEW GRANITE IN KITCHEN!!!!!!!! IS THE CURE FOR CANCER!!!!!!!!!! AND WILL BROKER AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ISRAELIS AND THE PALESTINIANS!!!!! THAT IS AGREEABLE TO BOTH PARTIES!!!!!!!!!!! FOR ALL ETERNITY!!!!!!!!!!! SELLER MOTIVATED BRING ALL OFFERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Honestly, guys, it's just a kitchen counter. Although I hear bamboo flooring will eradicate hunger and sharply curtail domestic violence.
Anyway, wish us luck. I'm getting kind of bored with this, and I have a tendency to do bad and destructive things when I get bored. God, I'm such a badass I can hardly stand it.
