so the buyer for my condo is still trying to get financing after the original fell through. I am really getting irritated, it's not his fault but sheesh. He has an amazing credit score, is putting 10% down and has a great job. My realtor said if they won't loan to him then who WILL they loan too?

we're now shooting for a closing on April 15th.

My older son is leaving for Europe Saturday, and I get to drive him down to JFK. Yikes, the whole idea is frightening, not a big fan of driving in New York. I've driven to Kennedy before, but only to long term park and jump on my own flight. This time I have to short term park, walk him to a certain terminal, wait for the Youth Group reps to show up, see him off, find my car again, and hopefully make it out of the city and home. I have the worst habit of getting miserably lost, even with a GPS system. Ok don't laugh it's true.

As long as I get him there on time I'm happy. Making it home in one piece without a detour through The Bronx or some other tourist friendly crime ridden part of New York, is no big deal. If I get break down, get mugged and stabbed to death so what, at least he made it to his flight.

just kidding (hehe well sorta)
---
Anybody out there in bloggerland ever short term park at JFK? What is the experience like?

This guy I went on a couple dates with irks me. Not only is he way too loud and "colorful", but has this weird sort of ADD or something. It's like he doesn't listen to what you say. You start a sentince and half way through he's like "Oh yea, riiight". He also has the really irritating habit of replying to everything you say with "Right?" bleh....
---
Did I mention there is NO chemistry on my part. Not even a twinge. Watching a movie together the other night he put his hand on my knee and I was not comfortable. just.not.into.him is an understatement. I don't even know if I can make a go at a friendship with this mary.
---
I have tried to find something we have in common, but really can't. Nothing, zilch, nada...
---
Maybe he has some interesting friends. He knows a lot of homos in the area, maybe he can introduce me to someone I actually have something in common with.
---
Here's hoping...
---
Anybody still participate in HNT?
---
I am thinking about it for next week.

Your son is going to Europe and you're worried about the drive to the airport. Hmm.... ;P

Not sure what to say about your new friend. Networking is always a good thing.

I haven't done HNT in a while. I think the latest blog trend is Undie Mondays. I think it originated here: http://idleeyesandadormy.blogspot.com/

I don't know anyone who does HNT anymore but hey, re-start the trend!
Good luck on taking your son to the airport and I hope the trip makes many many happy memories for him.
As far as the guy with no chemistry. Move on. Nothing worse than no chemistry. You will only grow contemptuous of him i'm afraid (I would).
