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.

The porch is divine. It's significantly larger than your current place? Wainscoting in the bathroom? And the kitchen looks great!

Congrats!

Sue, fi you'd like me to look over your resume/letter, and/or cheerlead, I'd be happy to. Academic libraries are great, and I am also writing a lot of letters saying "I've never done this, but I have the skills to!"

Thanks flea! I may take you up on this.

Sparky, congratulations on the new house! It's beautiful! I love the kitchen.

Oh, Sparky's link made my bungalow-loving heart sore. I miss my house in Georgia. (Which is rented, as of Oct. 20! To a new librarian where I used to work. Go team money!)

It looks great -- those floors look fantastic.

Also, love the pics of the park at the end.

I've been in SoCal long enough that when I see something that leafy and that green (the yard) it takes me back a bit. We have plants and fruit trees, but even still, everything here is so undrenched and bleached out, nothing lush. I miss it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, that is a nice house.

Changing topics briefly...

Have you all seen the Daily Twists ads for Oreo in celebration of their 100th? I read about it in the NYT yesterday. It's amazingly fun. I love that there is one for the beginning of Project Runway: [link] as well as one honoring Nora Ephron [link] There's also higher brow fare, like commemorating Galileo and the telescope [link] So fun.

That is an adorable little house! I can't believe how much living in Rochester has effected my house price index in my head, because that is SO EXPENSIVE IT SHOULD BE A MANSION ON A 12 ACRE COMPOUND!
