Looks like our house is selling

We’ve formalized a contract on our house in Birmingham, AL. The final price is significantly less than we were initially asking, but considering the current market worries and the fact that we are already half-way moved to NY and renting a townhouse for a few more months, we took the offer with few changes. To boot, it’s a cash deal closing in 30 days. A doctor and a former Miss Alabama are going to move in later this summer. There will be three doctors and two Miss Alabama winners on our little cul-du-sac now.

Nice car

Kurt Vonnegut dies at 84

I was just telling Tracy that she should read Cat’s Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut.

He died last night.

I met him once. Great writer.

Buy my house II

Howard Owens, a friend of mine who is much more experienced in this whole social networking and marketing business than I am, told me, “The best way to market your house is to put it in your blog“. Here goes…

Please, please, please buy my house in wonderful Birmingham, AL so I can get all of my “stuff” (and Tracy and my dog and my piano) to Fairport, NY.

I’ll leave a can of Country Time Lemonade in the cupboard and if you ask nicely, a few white rocking chairs might stay on the porch.
