Last Week's Recap

Unlike Halloween past, when Hubby and I would venture out to the Castro to join the swarms of revelers and drunkards, we decided to play grown-ups this year and instead, chose to stay home and pass out candy to the little trick-or-treaters. Unfortunately, because of our location, turn-out was pretty disappointing.

Last Thursday, we went to mediation with the buyers of our condo. That’s right, mediation. In my wildest dreams, I would have never thought we could ever be sued, or even come close to being a party to something like this. Because I had just started a new job, I was unable to attend, thus leaving my husband and our attorney to fend for our case. To make a long story short, we ended up paying the entire amount in dispute, even though we were not at fault. Sometimes the justice system proves to be total unjust…

This Sunday, Hubby and I had brunch with his family at the Cliff House. This was the first time we had eaten there since it was remodeled. With its sleek interior, soaring ceilings, and floor to ceiling windows, the restaurant was barely resembled its pre-remodeled state. The food, on the other hand, was just as good as we remembered it to be.
On the pop culture news front, I am extremely saddened by the whole Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillipe break-up. They seemed so down to earth and normal. And, they were just an adorable couple to look at. But, being married myself, I realize how difficult sustaining a relationship can be, so I cannot even begin to fathom how people do it under the microscope and spotlight that comes with fame.

You've got to be kidding on the outcome of your mediation! Unless there was fraud or MATERIAL misrepresentation or failure to disclose a material fact, how could you be liable? Did you not sell your condo on an "as-is" basis with an "as-is" addendum? If not, you should turn around and sue your realtor for the claim amount and your attorney fees!

Finally found her way back to the City after 11 years living away from it. Makes a living as an accountant, but constantly wishes she was in a profession that was less “geeky” and fun. Loves to eat, drink, and be merry. Also likes to shop, much to the chagrin of her husband. Always open to new activities, experiences, and meeting new people!
