Yep. Living at home again helps.
I knew I'd have to do this, and I can get a second job. I will absolutely quit smoking in two weeks after my friend's wedding, which will save money. I won't be working around shiny things for sale, which ought to help out a lot.
Oooh, I really hope I did the right thing.
Timelies!!!
{{{Nora}}} What everyone else said.
{{{vw}}} I'm glad you have a possibility or three.
YAY LILTY!
Saw Movin' Out last night. Holy bejess, can those people dance. Man.
Also, Journey's "Don't Stop Believing" is in the top ten downloads on iTunes today? I mean, really?
I'm pretty sure you did the right thing, Lilty.
I have great fear, every time I read the business section (which I now do voraciously) that we were just fucking stupid to buy at the top of the housing market and that we will be screwed.
Nora, I'm chiming in as well to help convince your little fear demon to get stomped. There is evidence that the housing market is in more of an upwards correction rather than a bubble. Unless something radically drives people away from single family housing, and the pace of apartment buildings speeds up, you'll be okay. And as other people have pointed out, unless you sell when the market is low, it doesn't matter.
Housing value goes up, it goes down, try not to worry about the market until you have to sell.
Good luck with the fear demon, and remember to wipe your shoes.

So, Lilty, why don't you tell us about this AWESOME SHINY new job?
I laughed when I saw who had outbid billytea.
Nora, can I bring anything to the party on Sunday? Cookies, cake, strawberry ice, all of the above?
