Jesse, I think you should move closer to me, which would be much cheaper.
And lose my 1.5 mile commute? See, this is my problem.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Very true. TCG's commute sucks, but we can't afford to live where he works.

I couldn't afford to live here alone if my parents hadn't bought the house in 1979 or whatever.

I figured as much.

We could not afford to buy in our neighborhood now.

Likewise my house is worth almost twice what I paid for it...but then I'd have to find somewhere else to live.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Yeah, I definitely could not afford my neighborhood now.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
We sold our coop for twice what we paid for it and moved somewhere else and it worked out great! Though my commute does suck more than it did.

We probably couldn't afford our neighborhood now. We keep getting postcards and even cold calls from people wanting to buy our house. Our neighborhood is getting way too gentrified, and it blows.

OH MY G-D, THE COLD CALLS.
I answered a number I didn't recognize the other day, because I thought it might have been the sleep study center (their phone number changes every other month or so, depending on which location someone is doing the reminder call from). I was assailed by this very chirpy sounding Young Professional Bro, letting me know that an associate of his had recently sold a house in our neighborhood for Big Money, and were we thinking about selling our house?
As soon as he paused for breath, I said, "I wouldn't work with anyone who cold called me", and hung up.
