Fisher – Ordinary Moment

This song comes from a cd I got yesterday, an early birthday present %) It’s Fisher (http://www.digitalsound.net/). They had a song on the Great Expectations soundtrack, that’s where I heard them first.. then found out they were an mp3.com group. I have a few of their mp3s and honestly enjoyed them, so I figured since this two cd set was *only* $13.99 I could ask for it *shrugs* … Plus it’s signed:

I listened to the first disk this morning “Uppers” and found myself terribly disappointed. They are technically a “pop” band, but usually they arent so popish… the site says “The uppers are the upbeat tracks that make you dance and sing, a treat that will pleasantly surprise Fisher fans.” Heh… not a pleasant surprise %(!!! I really wasn’t happy with it. Luckily “Downers” makes up for it… the website saying: “And the downers are, of course, the songs that make listeners feel, those “reactive” songs that Fisher have become known for.” Known for and loved for! Gah, silly of them to make uppers, ish mostly icky.

So in other news we got to look at two houses since I last wrote. See we realized that if we were moving out of this apartment we’d have to give 60 days notice to the owner people. That means we either needed to find a house and make sure we can get it by October 9th… or stay here another year. Staying here another year would suck %(

So yesterday I redoubled my efforts for looking and actually stumbled upon something that looked nice. It had a fireplace, no loft, but it seemed alright. Called the agent and she said it was really great and she’d love to show it to us. While on the phone with her I mentioned another house I had seen online, the one with the fireplace and loft (i had called the realtor 3 times and left voicemail twice, plus an email… no response) so I figured it was worth a shot to ask her about it. She got really excited, saying it was just down the street from the other house and we’d LOVE it ‘caue it seemed to be exactly what we want. Then she said that an offer was being put in that day and would probably be accepted so we had to act right then. Unfortunately Myk had to work and couldn’t get out with that much short notice, plus to make the move on it we would have had to have mortgage stuff ready and make an offer then. SO we sighed and decided to give up on that one. Myk did call and get a mortgage pre approved however, so when we were ready we could grab what we wanted. Anyway, we ended up seeing that first house last night, it was decent, had a few problems but it was to be expected I suppose. It had a garage that was converted into a finished game room, and dispite the ground floor kitchen and bathroom needing some work we decided that it was mostly what we were looking for and we should probably bid on it. WELL Myk emailed the realtor this morning, saying that we really were interested in it… she called him back and guess what? The deal on the house with the loft fell through! AND the price was just lowered by 5 grand!!

Myk left work around 11:30, came to pick me up, and we went over to see the house with the loft. The carpeting was MUCH nicer than the other house. Everything was much nicer. The back yard was pretty small, but otherwise it was just so perfect… trees in the front yard, a cute little garden, newly redone windows throughout the house. It’s beautiful %)

So we went back to the realtor’s to make an offer… turns out it was owned by a guy Myk used to work with! Apparently he was fired recently and is relocating to florida, small small world %) It made us more sure about wanting the house noew, we know the REAL reason it is being sold… and Myk can even call the previous owner and ask him about it… Anyway it seems really nice, I dont want to get too excited about it ’cause whenever I do we end up unlucky… but we will know by thursday %)

Anyway, we are having a couple friends over tonight … prolly will go out for pizza or something, that’ll be kewl *yawns and wanders off*
