It’s our sixth anniversary. I’m not one to make too much of these sorts of things, but it did, as it turned out, hurt my feelings when Husband set out on a three-hour biking photography expedition, leaving me home to finish cleaning the bathrooms. Sure, he asked me several times if I was okay with it, but I know how much he enjoys taking pictures, and we didn’t have any specific plans, so I told him to go ahead. And then I was sad to be alone, that he didn’t want to do something fun together. So while he was gone, Little Girl and I went to my favorite restaurant and were sure to order dessert.
This afternoon our Atlanta home, still nowhere near being sold, had an open house. Yesterday the real estate agent called us to tell us she was quite sick and a colleague would be showing it for us. Okay, sick is sick. Except she had friended me on Facebook and her status for today was “going to church, going to a birthday party, watching [some sporting event].” Niiiice. And we haven’t heard a thing about the open house.
And, particularly awesomely, an asshole who (date) raped me in high school suddenly contacted me via email this evening. Like I want something to do with him. I’ll just ignore it, but I hate that he’s now in my thoughts. Hate.
So, not my favorite anniversary so far, then.

Well that sounds like the suckiest anniversary ever. I am so sorry the date rape person contacted you. What a sleaze.
Did you comment on her status? Something perky like “I’m so glad to hear you are feeling better!” *l* I am so passive aggressive it hurts.

I think we’re going to fire her instead. Actually I just went to look at her profile to see if she had mentioned being sick earlier, and–I don’t know if this is possible–but I think she unfriended me. I can’t see anything from her anymore! The plot thickens!

What a crappy way to spend an anniversary (although, what do I know? This year, my husband and I both forgot our 6th anniversary).
I hate realtors – without exception. I was selling a condo and was supposed to have an open house one Sunday. I waited for the guy to show up and he never did. When I called to ask him how it went, he lied to me about getting there late. Then I fired him, but he didn’t take the listing off the MLS, and was pissed off when I got a different realtor. OK, well, I have to retract – I did like that realtor, but he was unusual – he was honest.
How do those people that you never want to hear from again always find you?

Oh, I’m sorry you had such a bad day, especially with the email from the loser date rapist. That sucks.
And yes, she can unfriend you and you wouldn’t know it (until you went to look for her profile). Firing sounds like a good idea!

omg that is the crappiest anniversary ever! I also can’t believe that guy emailed you…. are you not going to like rip him one?
also she probably did unfriend you… look in your list of friends if she is not there she did.. ALso if you search for her and the add friend is there it means she un friended you lol… what a crappy agent :)

I thought about writing him a nasty email or something but I’d rather not have anything to do with him.
29 June 2009 at 3:16 am
Oh crappy day, sorry!
I hope you gave him hell about the bale out on your anniversary, did he even give you flowers or something?
And that other guy, creep! What’s he playing at!
Men!
HUGS my dear, hoping this week starts of better for you. x
29 June 2009 at 8:13 am
Yes, flowers, and he worked on the cat pee-smelling rug and WD-40d the bikes for me.

Sorry the day was rubbish. At least you got dessert and I hope the Husband made up for being away when he got home.
As for the estate agent and the sleazebag from your past – grr.

fire her immediately. call another agency and say you want their top seller.
don’t even know what to say about the scumbag
29 June 2009 at 10:29 am
Yuck — you’re not having luck for birthdays and anniversaries lately. So sorry. And as others said, she can unfriend you, and the easiest way to know is to look her up and see if you can see her profile. I would definitely fire. And ugh on the creep. This is the problem with the small world through the web phenom. Hope today is better.
29 June 2009 at 10:39 am
Ugh. I’m sorry about the whole day. Definitely fire the realtor and I wish there was some way to flush unpleasant thoughts out of one’s head.
Sending hugs.
29 June 2009 at 12:01 pm
Blech. What a crappy anniversary, dude. I’m sorry. Sounds a whole lot like my birthday every year. Always a crappy time.
29 June 2009 at 12:23 pm
Well Happy Anniversary anyways! Sorry your day sucked.
