Also, I have a combination of "we sold a house" and "it was my birthday!" materialistic blood lust.
Jeez, don't get all Movie of the Week. I was just too cheap to buy you a real present.

Oh, people, I want this house: [link]
We could technically afford it, but it is more than I wanted to spend. It would mean, for example, that it would make no sense to go to France next year.

I woke up with a headache, but now it's building to a migraine. Come on, brain! I only need to hang in there two more hours and then we can jet.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ooh, that's a good one, flea.
You should have a secretary, Dana.

Pretty house, flea. Any chance they'd negotiate?

I think it is well-priced. In the current market my main hope is it doesn't go under contract before we can see it.
I am frantically doing math and self-justification, while I wait to see if we can see it tonight.

Fingers crossed, flea!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
That is pretty much my dream house right there.

Because books.
But that's my dream house!
Can I live with you?
Scrappy, did you grow up on the East Coast? That's the sort of house I was used to growing up in New Jersey, and it's still my very favorite. Give me a porch and built-ins and fireplaces any day.

If we buy it, everyone is invited to come laze in our hammock.
