Heroes started again tonight, and I did not go to the gym. So I am lazy and skipping workouts, and it is only the first episode.
For those who saw it, whatcha think? I called some things, but not others. I do not want to be specific for all of those who like to Tivo. I may elaborate in a few days.
We hit some open houses again on Sunday, and there were some good possibilities. A house nearby had good potential, but the master bedroom smelled like a cat had a major UTI in there (Mike said he would even rip out walls if necessary to get rid of the smell).
There was this really weird one that was big and filled with many functionless nooks.
I have never seen so many sets of 3-4 carpeted steps that went up to weird lofts. Maybe they filmed Robert Altman movies there. Mike went to check out the woods at that house (the realtor told us the owner had a huge garden up on the hilltop), and it was littered with a ton of weird liquor bottles. See ya!
We encountered another realtor-stalker (when you shake them off, they keep re-appearing even when the house has others looking too). Mike had a new idea to keep the realtor stalker away (especially when they get nosy about us). We started thinking of wildly inappropriate questions.
1. After the realtor told us "People buy here for the lifestyle" Mike suggested we ask if they throw key parties.
2. When asked "Do you have children?" We reply, "None of your business"
3. Remark loudly that the yard is so private that we could do some nude sunbathing.
4. What is the zoning for exotic pets?
I can not think of any more offhand, but suggestions are welcome.

We watched it too. How long do we have to wait to talk about it?

If you tell them you have a realtor, they would be more likely to leave you alone - they get 2X the commission if they can get you to use them to buy a place.

I would never use the listing person as the agent on both sides. I want an agent fighting for my cheap interests!
Get that lazy smarty-pants MIT gradiatin' engineer in your house to hook up a generator to a bike and make it so you have to pedal a bike for the TV to work. You go to slow, it turns off...

Oh, other realtor suggestions...
- Nice, real dirt, it's too hard to dig 6 foot deep holes in that clay-type soil. Follow this with a question about what their fees are...
Realtors are a). not necessary to purchase a house, b). worse than lawyers, c). usually delusional about the worth of their assistance.
Unfortunately, they are the mob of the realty world.

Well, our gym just got individual TVs on all the cardio equipment, so now we can go there to watch TV.
