We agreed on the contingencies. We're taking the house.

Oh holy God, we're buying a house.

I'm using this icon because I don't know if I want to run around screaming excitedly, or run around screaming in terror. I'm split down the middle now, and this icon is appropriately vague enough to be either.

Oh holy God, we're buying a house.

Thank you! Of course, now I want all of your reassurances that homeowning isn't THAT big of a deal. Because I'm scared, and I need you to lie to me.

Hee! Yup, it's a piece of cake. ;)

Really, congrats! I'm so happy for you guys!!!!

OMG! YOU ARE OFFICIALLY A RESPONSIBLE ADULT!

OMG!

I don't feel responsible or adult-like at all.

When did this become my life? I'm like a Talking Heads song.

At least you're not a Backstreet Boys song?

Also! We need to schedule a meet up! I haven't seen you in forever and we keep threatening to get together and yet fail at it. When are you freeish of your freelancing?

Date: 2007-08-16 02:49 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] eee1313.livejournal.com
Well, if all else you'll be seeing me on the 26th, right? ;)

I'm staying in all weekend to finish off the freelance, which should (hopefully) all be done by Wednesday. After that, things will open up.

Dude, of course I'll be there the 26th! Looking suitably sad and everything. Wheeeeeeee!!!

Anyway, yay for finishing the freelance stuff! *thrilled for you*

The squee hasn't quite set in yet. I'm still kind of numb about the whole affair. But I'm sure it will happen.

Thanks!

Congratulations! Home ownership is everything you've described: excitement and terror. And just think, that will never go away! I know after five years, owning still makes me feel all grown up and totally out of my depth.

Date: 2007-08-16 02:40 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] eee1313.livejournal.com
I am glad to hear that. This is SUCH a foreign experience for me. I don't know how I should be feeling.

And thanks for the postcard!

Thank you!

I can't believe you've already bought and sold one house already. You two are nuts. How do you deal with the stress of it all?

Way to go, grown-up!! :)

I'm very jealous. Have I missed you posting photos, or do we have to wait 'til move-in to see the place you scored?

Congrats!!

From: [identity profile] eee1313.livejournal.com
Yup, you missed it (though it's a locked post, you're approved to see the gallery). Check this post (http://eep1313.livejournal.com/544689.html) for pics.

And I am soooooooo not a grown-up.

YAY! I think that's exciting AND terrifying, but I'm sure you guys will be fine. Congratulations!

Pretty soon it will be "Party at Rummy's house!" as well.

I can't tell if that's a happy EEEEEEEE! or a frightened EEEEEEE! (In my mind, it's both.)

Date: 2007-08-16 06:47 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] katesti.livejournal.com
Yeah, both. I'm super happy for you, but I totally understand that you're slightly freaking out. I know it's going to be awesome, though!

Congratulations! Just think about how you can paint and decorate and do anything you want with it...

Date: 2007-08-16 05:52 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] eee1313.livejournal.com
That's what I'm looking forward to. Currently the entire downstairs is a light peach color. Blarrrrrgh! So yeah, there will definitely be some repainting going on.

Date: 2007-08-16 06:13 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] adjrun.livejournal.com
CONGRATS!!!!

And yeah, I think elated terror is about the standard reaction. That's pretty much what I felt. :)

Glad to know this sense of "OMG WHAT DID I JUST AGREE TO???" is normal.

And thanks for the postcard!

Congrats! Don't you feel all grown up now?

Date: 2007-08-16 08:32 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] eee1313.livejournal.com
Heh. Honestly, I feel like a big fraud. I'm buying a house and getting married, and I still have a toy pirate ship in my bedroom and never balance my checkbook and don't do my dishes AT ALL... But if I seem grown up to you all, then I guess I'm doing a pretty good job faking it. ;)
