Huh.

On my way out the door this morning, moving slowly, I was approached by a fella in a workshirt who proceeded to compliment me on what I've done to GMBAN; turns out he was the owner of record prior to the realtor who sold it to the guy I bought it from.

- Apparently, the neighborhood used to be pretty damn sketchy (hookers & drug deals in the alley; unruly, lawbreaking kids in the house behind, etc).
- The ancient railroad set I found in the garage was his from when he was a child, and is about 40 years old.
- There was, at one point, a minor fire in the kitchen.

So, that was interesting.

However, I'm still all logy and feeling off. Busted my butt at the gym last night, and managed not to ruin it too much by having wanton soup and an egg rolll for dinner (mmmm, beef w/ broccoli leftovers for lunch today, to go along with a much-needed haircut).

BTW, our neighbor in 6614 (corner house) told me she would take $200K (dropped from $225K) for the house, as is.

i've been getting pinged by the various "sell your house now" mail and phone solicitations. i'm tempted to say "first one of y'all who shows up with a quarter mil, it's yours," just to see what kind of crack they're smoking.
