At my 9-to-5 job, I have been working incessantly on this project. Despite layoffs and paycuts, I’ve had my nose to the grindstone slamming out this project with my colleagues. This is a wordpress based blog that features housing predictions, market analysis, and podcasts with some of the industry’s big boys and girls. This was [...]

As chosen, by the Random Integer Generator, these are our winning commenters (Congrats!):

Delight.com’s Giveaway winners will be chosen tomorrow – I’ll post the 2 winners in the morning. I love those RuMe bags and can’t wait to see the turnout!

Ok, this isn’t actually a picture of my haircut {how did that become a blog tradition anyway?}. In the last couple of weeks I have probably had 20 people tell me that I look like Megan Corkrey from American Idol {okay, we both have big teeth and dark roots… I get it}. While I think [...]

However, I’ve noticed lately that when I run other errands, like the drug store or mall, that it stings a little bit more when I have to use their plastic bags.
