Oh, the laughs...

I strongly suspect that I am an unwilling party to a talk radio prank.  There is a DJ somewhere who decided to see how far he could push a house selling and buying chain until someone had a nervous breakdown.  The DJ set an arbitrary timeline that was just plausible and then got a lot of people to commit to his made-up cause.

Then, the DJ got to have real fun.  He was chortling with his listeners this morning.  "Can you believe it?  It's the day before the day I insisted that I had to move and two days before my compromise moving day.  And I have come up with yet another technical yet arbitrary reason not to exchange.  And no one is asking difficult questions yet.  This is genius!"

No, we have still not exchanged.  Yes, the deadline for Friday completion has passed.  We were begged for an extra hour, so by my watch, there are 15 minutes left in which we can exchange and complete on Friday.

Are you holding your breath?  I'm not.
