well, shit. looks like we are buying a house. The sellers accepted all our terms and we sign the P&S tomorrow morning.
ION, we decided to take a low-impact break from our get home-cook-eat-clean-sleep routine, and went out for yummy cheap Mexican food - I had grilled cilantro marinated chicken! And what is called a Mexipolitan. A cosmo with very nice, very smoove tequila. This place (Rudy's for those who know it) has a great selection of fine tequilas and I really want to go someday and taste a bunch of them. The Mexipolitan is quite mock-worthy, but I liked it, it was simple, was more tequila than margarita mix, and delicious.
Then we walked down to Davis Square and went to one of the hipster coffee shops and had a lovely after dinner coffee beverage, walked around a little more, then went back to our car and drove home. It was just very nice taking a low cost, low stress break in the routine.
It was a lovely evening, too, weather-wise.
Sounds awesome, Nora! Yay!
Am I the only one that thinks cilantro tastes like dish soap?
DUDE! New Crate & Barrel store opened up five minutes from my house. I'm so screwed.
The BF just got home from having coffee with an old friend who just got engaged. Interestingly enough, she was at an all-women poker night the other night and five of the ten women in their late 30s-40s who were there were also engaged. ALL of them, including our friend, met their fiancees through online dating. Interesting, eh?
makes note to try online dating.
I've skipped and skimmed about 300 messages. Anything of note happen?
Mom and I have worked for two solid days packing (hence the need to skip and skim), and we're almost done. Gronk.
Anne! I need your mailing address so I can send you your Cowgirl ReBop mix so you can listen to it when you're driving to St. Louis. Are you driving? If not, I'll just mail it to you when you get to St. Louis so you have one less thing to pack.
Hec, insent.
Got it! It should be waiting for you upon your arrival.
Which reminds me, Anne, I've given up planning to send you one more thing to pack up, and will send my package to your new address when you get there (if you send your new address to me).
Sparky, I've been thinking of your husband and his family all day. I have no words. I keep trying, but they just won't come out.
Thanks, Anne.
Today was Aidan's day to be a horror with Kara not far behind. Thankfully, they're asleep after a rousing game of wiggle, wiggle, biggle, woo. I can't explain it, but it's a lot of fun.
