Closing Time

“one last call for alcohol, so finish your whiskey or beer”

Truly, one of the most under-rated pop-rock albums of the last 10 years. They got a really bad rap for writing a catchy tune with an annoying refrain. The rest of the disc is top-notch. And having the luxury of looking back, “Closing Time”, was a great tune.

“Feeling Strangely Fine” - Semisonic

Also, we’re closing the loan on our condo this afternoon.

On Monday afternoon, we took what was supposed to be the final walkthrough inspection of the place. We were a little surprised at the amount of work left to be done. The kid working for the builder assured us it would get done. We brought a friend along, a real estate developer, and he was pretty convinced it wouldn’t be finished. So, we scheduled another inspection for Wednesday night.

As surprised as we were to see everything not finished on Monday, we were equally surprised to find 90% of it done last night. There were a few things left unfinished, a few things we thought should have been done better, and one or two things that were ignored. The builder (should) have a list in their hands this morning. Whether or not they get it done by 1:00PM, it looks like we’ll be closing.

I’ll be taking another set of pictures when we get in there, and I’ll post them tomorrow.
