Utter Shit


All I wanted was a trip to IKEA.

Woke up at 4:45 to go work out.  It was pure hell.  Inhaling really cold air through sinuses that are aflame  -it hurts, people.  Sort of felt woozy a few times.  But I survived.  Not sure I will go tomorrow.  I am thinking sleeping in would feel much, much better.

I have been dreaming on a little jaunt to IKEA to buy tchotchkes.  I had a paycheck – a large one – coming in 2 weeks.  I want vases.  White ones.

Um…only  got called to work 2 hours early today.  He decided to not take the job.  And that house he is in escrow on, um….yeah, not gonna buy it.

And all the air goes out of my lungs.  But I have to keep smiling. I have to play nice, even when I really want to cry.

Instead I had to go tell the other agent and fight to get his $20K deposit back.

Please go hug your real estate agent today.  Because even though we have a reputation half a step up the ladder from a used car salesman, most of us work really hard.  Even when we don’t get paid for it.
