Buffy ,'The Killer In Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I had a terrible home owning experience (bought high, sold low) and I like the fact that not owning a home gives a certain freedom to up and go live anywhere. We've had this apartment for almost 6 years now, and while we're in it, it feels like home. If it turns out that we can't stay due to the whim of others, it's fine, we'll find another place to make a home.
I do wish we had a garden though. or some sort of yard.
I'm strangely interested in living in a new city, given how anti-change I am. I know that moving will suck, and selling the house will probably suck, no matter how well it goes, but the idea of living somewhere new is kind of neat.
It's something I never really thought I would be kind of excited about, having grown up in one house until I moved to college, and having lived in our previous house here for 10 years.
Buffista English village? Village for sale with manor house! [link]
My retirement plan is to eventually buy a condo in the building I got booted out of in '07, if I can get one of the units with the round tower (preferably the one on the top floor) and my knees & ankles hold out for the stair climbing. There's been a great sense of satisfaction over the years in watching the place remain half-empty and sale prices go down because people looking to buy don't regard a rehab center, an expressway, and slum tenements as ideal neighbors.
Buffista English village? Village for sale with manor house!
I would love that! I've always been fascinated by the relationship between village and manor house and how those communities developed. And some nice rolling farm land, too.

This is a concern of mine. We're between storm systems today, and my joints are shrieking at me.
Yes to English town.
My office is so overcrowded, I went to get a soda and came back to three people not in my department having a closed-door meeting in my office....
Although, with the way the climate's going, the Buffista Island should perhaps be in Denver ....
staying up too late reading is one of my unhealthy coping mechanisms. Along with impulse purchases, like how I signed up for Birchbox.
My sister.
Consuela, glad to hear about your dad's improvement!
