The Poverty Jet Set

We’re Homeowners!

After a rollercoaster of a house-buying, mortgage-getting, Fishtown-loving, Fishtown-hating, cold-featin’, day-dreamin’ process, we FINALLY closed on this beautiful house this morning. Here’s me, pretending to sign one of the 1,000,000 legal documents signing my life away:

So Audrey and I are officially homeowners. Who’da thought! Us hippies. Crazy. We’ll have you all over for a fun party to celebrate very soon!

Yay! It can be traumatic and surreal, but it's all done. Let the par-tays begin!

Hey guys, congratulations on your new house. I'm the previous owner's BFF from out of town, and my body memory will probably take me right to your front door next time I visit ...

You're living the impossible dream! Congratulations. Thankfully, median home prices here in 'Frisco are dropping like a rock. Maybe someday...

Hey there,
Missed your comment on my blog. Somehow I "cleaned" it out of the spam folder which did NOT mean making it un-spammed. Anyways...I hope you're getting moved & settled. I've been without internet access up until this point, otherwise I'd have checked on you & to let you know that I got all my stuff out on Sunday morning. (At least I think I got everything out. It was a mad rush trying to do a final walkthrough.)

@anneke - thanks for all your help yesterday cleaning! I'm glad you like the house.

@blackmail - for realz.

@jackson - thanks, mate! Good luck in the Bay Area! It's brutal out there.

@leah - no worries! We're still internet-less at the house, too, but I think we're ripping off the neighbor's wireless successfully. Hehe.
