Yes. Lucky for you, people may be in danger.

Because books.

There is just no pleasing you, is there?

You could always make a habit of asking her if she's enbabied yet.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Do the Furries congegrate in Pittsburgh now?

Once a year for six or so years now.

Our wings are not tired.

Got a call from my mortgage broker (Charlie's niece) and she says I've got pre-approval in the bag. Should have official paperwork Monday or Tuesday. Yikes. I guess I am going to be a single home owner and join the ranks of some rawking do-it-yourself-Buffistas.

Thanks! I know it's just the first step of a very long process, but I am still excited.

And, terrified.

Yay! Pretty soon you'll have your page of projects! Well, since you're already living there, might be shorter.

And the terrified is completely normal. My back crawled (and I do mean that somewhat literally: the skin on my back was never still with the stressy muscles rippling. You could see it. Such a weird feeling) from when I saw this house until closing happened. And I lost 10 lbs in the week before closing and it wasn't like I was skipping meals or anything!

The status is NOT quo.

Java, that's AWESOME! SO excited for you!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

That's excellent news, java!

I just had a dream about my house, while I was napping. I went up into my attic (which is huge and empty and un-solid-floored in RL) and discovered a whole bunch of cool shit I didn't know I had, all neatly packed away, and a couple dormer windows that did amazing things that windows can't really do, like have chilled storage spaces behind them, and there was a nice young man up there waiting for me who showed me where everything was and how it all worked, and I was delighted and woke up happy. What does it MEAN?

Also, the process might go a lot faster than you think. I saw this house March 7. I made an offer March 12, it was accepted that evening. Did one round of counter post-inspection, but it didn't change the timeline. I closed April 17. AND I got a new roof in that interval.

It'll be a whirlwind.

Indeed - from offer to closing was only about 4 weeks, in my case. Everyone was motivated!
