  cara, i'm glad you had a good time! i wished i could have seen you more too, i felt the same way when i dropped you guys off. it was so quick even though we talked for about 2 hours. jean lafitte's really is one of the coolest bars i've been to.
was someone playing at the piano when you went? em- tell me about the house stress. we drove by the one we will eventually look at last night. there were garbage bags outside so at least the tenants moved out and they are cleaning so hopefully next week...!
i hope it works out for you too and the house you really want. you know, when we looked at some houses the seller's realtor was there and they would ALWAYS tell our realtor "someone/people already put an offer in, so tell them to make a decision quick". which we were told that they always do that to pressure buyers into making quick decisions to make offers. don't sweat it so much because chances are you do have time.
