Soft Loud

Things have been a little quite here on the blog, but not in real life.  I have barely even had time to exercise, so you know that means I'm busy.  But big things have been happening!  Things so big they have to be measured in square footage, and even acreage!

Yes, that's right, we're probably going to be home owners soon!  Assuming the inspection goes well, which, in all honesty, it may not.  There might be mole people living in the crawl space, for all we know.  But, barring mole people, mold, radon, termites, faulty wiring, amateur plumbing, rampant asbestos,or a secret portal into a 5th dimension and/or hell, I think that bad boy will be ours.

The idea of owning a home is so surreal.  Living in New Jersey, I never thought owning a home would be a reality for someone in my line of work:  prostitutioneducation.  Utah, though, is a totally different story.  A horse of a different color, if you will.  Nay, not even a horse, but a unicorn, of a different color (rainbow, natch).  Not to brag or anything, but I think our mortgage payments for the year will be lower than some people's property taxes in Jersey.

In other (real) news, have you guys heard about THIS


People here are so genuinely nice, they will lift a flaming vehicle off your unconscious body.  And that's why we're buying a house. 

That and our neighbors in our apartment community are super freaking weird.  And we really want chickens and a goat.  And a dog.  And a garden.  And be able to walk to work.

  1. Yayyayyay! How exciting! We're currently bursting out of our own apartment and dreaming of a house, but it will be much longer before we can make it happen. Crossing my fingers that the inspection goes well.

    (Or that if there is a portal to the 5th dimension, it's a dimension full of half naked Taye Diggs' who poop chocolate bonbons.)
