Mal ,'Objects In Space'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Ugh, yeah. We are VERY lucky that Bob's condo association allows renters and that he has two friends who are very responsible who needed a place to rent. My co-worker and her husband own a Chicago condo that's been on the market for like 5 years and their association doesn't allow renters so it's a total money sink.
Ugh is right. I've been wishing I could move for a couple of years now but it just isn't even a possibility. I would love to go back to renting.
My new space is at least not in a thoroughfare and maybe it will help me concentrate better if I feel constricted about hopping all over the internet and what not. (trying to have a good attitude!)
You are good at finding the bright side!
Our new neighbors moved here from Berkeley. They bought a very pricey house, for Athens GA, but I bet it seemed like an incredible deal to them. (It's a lovely ca. 1850 3-br cottage, very nicely renovated, and I think they paid $450K.)
Is the pay higher in areas with higher real estate prices? Becuase that house, while cute, is fairly modest, and the mortgage is more than I even make in a month.
Yes salaries are much higher here, in general. Unless you work for McGraw Hill!
Hey! I resemble that remark!
I haven't looked since, but, before the crash, SF had the highest median housing prices in the country ($750K), next in line was San Jose ($650K), and then LA and NY were both about $550K. To compare to income, median income in SF at the time was 72K, while NY was in the mid-50s. So there does seem to be some correlation.
Well soon (I HOPE) there will be no resemblance for remarks because you won't be working there!
lisa I love your kitchen! Especially the countertops.
Thanks, askye! It's 3 years old now and I still love it! The countertops and cabinets are just Ikea.

Oh that's good to know! Have they worn well? They're gorgeous.
Well soon (I HOPE) there will be no resemblance for remarks because you won't be working there!
Apparently, I will know more about that on Friday.
