I'm currently in the process of buying a house. A process that was supposed to CLOSE last Friday. Yeah, that didn't happen. My mortgage company completely messed things up. They didn't have paperwork, they weren't prepared, they weren't calling people back. In the mean time, I had packed a UHaul full of my stuff, including all my furniture. Once we figured out the deal wasn't going to happen, we had to unload the entire thing into a garage that my aunt lent. The kicker is that my parents are going to rent the apartment I'm vacating, so they've been living with me for the last three weeks. Now I have to share a futon with mom while dad sleeps on the couch (his choice), we have no tv, no internet. I have no idea when the closing will actually happen, but the thought of moving all that stuff again makes me shudder.

So please humor me. Tell me I'm not alone in this. What closing horror story do you have that you now laugh about about how you got your house?
