All apologies

If you've noticed my usual torrid posting pace has slowed a little and that I have been e-stalking your blogs a bit less than I usually do then you guessed right.  It's not because I don't like you all anymore or because I have writers block or anything (that's something that I promise will never happen to me because I'm a fat bastard with an opinion on most everything), it's because big changes are in the works here at Monkey Central.  

Sparky has been wanting to sell our condo and find a regular house for some time now and it looks like we're all in on doing so finally.  Financing is a go and we've been looking at more houses than you can shake a stick at, some good, some bad, some right but not quite there.  So that's been occupying my time that I usually devote to blog stalking you and writing my usual cornucopia of insanity on here and on my other blogs.

The flip side to looking for and buying a new place is getting our current place fixed up and since I'm the one who can be home all day if needs be then it falls to me to set up the meetings with the painters, carpet installers, plumbers, etc who will help us get our condo in tip top resale shape.  So I've been doing just that lately, meeting with and getting estimates from home improvement people.  It's a laborious process but since we need to repaint the whole place, do some minor cosmetic repairs, and replace some carpet, it must be done.

Don't worry, I haven't left you all.  I'll still be up late at night doing a post or three way past midnight and I'll still be checking out your blogs but I'll be doing it with a little less frequency until we get the current Monkey Central ready to put on the market.

Thanks for your understanding and thanks once again for reading me as often as you do.
