Missing: Social Skills

Running in to people that you knew from a former life is depressing. Makes you realize what you lose.

Below are the sales stats for December 2006 as well as a 2005/2006 comparison summary. This month, on the chart directly below, I’ve added Duplex sales and Townhome sales so you can see how those track over time compared to single family homes.

My Bar

When (okay, if) I have a bar, and it’s going to shut down, and it’s the last night of the bar, and you come to celebrate the closing, well - it will be a lot more fun that it was at Tambaleo last night.
