[m i a o w] the cat

OK - so I may have been pigeon-holing the faceless man I faxed my receipts to (for the work on the house). I imagined him as a desk-bound, power broking despot with the power to make my life hell if he felt like it. I was wrong. He called me up today, and I actually began to wonder if I’d met him before; he was someone with a quirky sense of humour and a sympathy for my time in house-buying hell. He told me that by reading between the lines of my fax he felt that he could safely assume he was correct in thinking that I would like the money put straight into my bank account. I told him he had interpreted my thoughts exactly. He said the money should be in my account by Saturday, or Monday at the latest. I didn’t say anything, because it’s hard to speak when you’re gaping. He asked if that was OK with me. I almost burst his eardrums with my assurances. Unbelievable. I have nothing bad to say about this company. In fact, I will refer to them by name and say that everyone I have dealt with at Resi has been kickass. It’s their credit provider/lender Perpetual Trustees Victoria who tempt me toward homicide.

M and I are separate puddles of intense relief. There is nothing hanging over us now. We have the money that we’ll need to tart up the garden, make the sunshades for the windows…etc etc. Not to mention a celebratory dinner on Fraser Island and some new shoes for M. Wah HOO! And it’s just about to rain for the first time in about a month. It’s all good

Make sure M’s shoes are the proper size this time!

Perpetual Trustees were a client of mine in Melbourne. I believe Satan may have been a signatory to their articles of incorporation. Check all small print to see if you retain ownership of your soul.
