I am going to see this house in an hour. [link] I am so excited. I think this could be The One. I think I am slightly insane this week. (All mr. flea had to say about it was, "I hate those bowl sinks." Good god, man, that is a quick under $500 change!)

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That is awesome. Buy it!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, that looks good! Tree house!!! Are you bringing your checkbook with you??

Because books.

Well, now I want that house. It's gorgeous.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

It's glorious. Also, I am mr flea wrt bowl sinks, but not in many other ways like height and engineering competency.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

flea, that's a great house! And it *is* right around the corner from my old apartment, and I *love* that street! You could walk to the food co-op when it opens! And walk to the 1,000 Indian restaurants and Graeter's!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Good luck, flea! I love everything about that house (except the bowl sink, but I don't hate that either). Palm tree!

Good news: the clinical pathology editing job (the one with the printing out and marking up hard copy and then scanning it and emailing it to the 1800s) that was going to hire in-house staff ended up slashing that from their budget and asked me if I would proofread for them more or less as long as I want.

I dislike this roller-coaster-y-ness of freelancing. Although I know working for The Man isn't a guarantee of anything, either. This is still just really new to me, and I dislike uncertainty.

But I do like having 2 long-term gigs that do pretty much make up full-time work now. Woo!

What a gorgeous place. Too bad stairs are not in Hubby's future any more.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I LOVE that house. Go buy it!
