BACK AT STARBUCKS

I'm in my lucky seat. At my lucky Starbucks. 42 Jefferson, Naperville, Illinois. Right downtown.

Is any one in the neighborhood? Meet me for coffee or tea.:)

What makes this seat lucky? It's a small table by the front door. Great for people watching.

There are two gentlemen on the soft cushy chairs right next to me. They have both been texting on their PDA's since the moment I got here. One is in a suit. With sunglasses.

Neither looks very social. Bad prospects.

Ahh. I have my tea. I have my glazed donut. Delicious.

So as I was saying, I am in my lucky seat. The three of us must look like tech geeks. Me blogging. Red bearded guy PDA-ing. Sunglass guy is now talking on his cell.

I am in my casual cool real estate uniform. Jeans. Danskos. RE/MAX windbreaker and hat. I look good.

I also feel pretty good. I have my first listing in two months. Buyers seem to be bubbling. Sellers are hopefully coming out of their winter hibernation.

I took the pictures of my listing this morning. Took care of the paperwork. I will have all the info's on the websites in the next few days. Then I must enhance the listings on some of the sites, write and place ads, etc.

It is good to be back to work.

Hi Ken!

Sounds like things are picking up with you! Congratulations! Enjoy that tea and hope you get a new prospect while you're there! I'm pretty new to AR, (about a week and a half) but I'm learning a lot...I hope to be "blogging" at Starbuck's pretty soon too!

Hi Kim, Lanette, and Jeff. Thanks for reading.

Jeff, I was really hungry. Who wants to blog on an empty stomach. It was only one donut anyway.

I will be careful.

Hmmm... Ok... I was in a little funk, and reading this, I am giggling. I can actually see you and the two other guys sitting there and the Re/Max logo standing out. Good for you on the listing...
