We've signed (in blood) on the dotted line, closed on our house, and joined the landed gentry. I can now rejoin the happy ranks of people who can talk about stuff other than real estate!
NCistas: you'd better be at the housewarming. Date TBD. Will evite.
After a month of looking and a week of waiting, ND and I found out this morning that we got the house in Pasadena! (Not to buy...we wish! Just renting, but hopefully for a good long while.)
Thanks for all that good Buffista ~ma! Our move in date is August 1st. We estimate we'll actually
be
moved in by the 15th.
SO EXCITED!
Thanks for the good wishes, everyone. I should have a baby more often, if it brings out Fiona and Rio and causes ita to get completely COMM-y.
We're home. I am tired, because they won't let you sleep in hospitals, but otherwise feeling good. Peter is much less puffy and Winston-y. Casper is riding the wild emotional roller-coaster of big sibling-hood, and kind of breaking my heart.
Pictures, still in Winston-face, start here: [link]
My sister, who used to post as Rah-Rah back in the days of the Atlantic Canadian Monday Madness thread, is GETTING MARRIED!
This afternoon, she and her girlfriend will be getting married, with our mother officiating (she's not a minister, but will be playing one for the day and has the government certificate to prove it).
My other sister (who posts occasionally as Helena Handbasket) and I will be singing a couple of songs - one from the Powerpuff Girls and one from Fellowship of the Ring. What can I say? We had to make sure the wedding had at least a minimum geekiness level.
Just wanted to share the happy. Now I'd better go make that sushi for the reception.
