Did some massive Christmas shopping today. Hit up three different stores and got most of it done. Had fun, spent several hundred dollars. Good times.

Tomorrow at 2pm I'm going back to look at that house that I liked. The owner doesn't want to work with my realtor at all (it would mean paying him 3% of the sale). So if I do end up getting this house it will be without Mike. Mike said, "I'd feel bad if you passed up a good opportunity just to work with me." I don't know shit about buying a house, there is a lot of stuff involved. I'd really prefer to have professional involved. So I called my uncle who is an ex realtor. I'll have to find something to compensate Mike for his time though. We'll see how it all plays out.
