Totally Off Topic: Only at Our House

www.inkthinkerblog.com

Last night, Jesse and I were in Richmond helping his sis with some stuff around her house. When I got home last night around midnight (we took two cars), I realized that the note I had left Jesse the night before, a fairly graphic description of Pickles having an accident in the middle of the night and how I lit a bunch of candles after I cleaned it up (so he’d blow them out before leaving for work), was still on the mirror — and people had come to see the house.

I called my realtor today (after e-mailing her last night with the subject line “We are morons”), and she laughed so hard I thought she was going to hurt herself. “Only you guys,” she gasped. She didn’t explicitly agree with the “morons” characterization, but she was clearly thinking it.

    Yes, I just about died when I saw it. I was laughing so hard I was crying, and Pickles was like, “What are we so happy about? Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!” I’m giggling still just thinking about it.

    As someone in the midst of househunting, coming across a note like that would make me laugh, like the house and its current owners more — makes it all more . . .human? canine? You get my drift! ;)

    Oh Kristen, sweetie…you aren’t the only one! I can see something horrifyingly similar happening at our house. Probably worse, or at least more embarrassing!
