... and we still haven't gotten confirmation of whether we're closing tomorrow, or if we have to wait until Friday or Monday. The mortgage committment from the bank is yet to make an appearance. The lawyer is not returning my phone calls. This is not good. And to add more drama, I am walking around with more money I've ever seen in one place EVER in my checking account, waiting for the closing, and the money is linked to my debit card. If I didn't want this house so much I would be extremely tempted to run amok at the Booksmith. (Hey - if you're reading this and know where I live, don't mug me, okay? This much adrenaline makes a girl a serious threat.)

I've been to one of my own closings where they got the final numbers wrong. We had to do a lot of white-out and initials next to the white-out.

It happens. --------
