Hot Damn Kilogram!
I woke up this morning, dismayed by the amount of little crap that has accumulated on my to-do list. House hunting takes so much time out of your day. When we're not looking at actual houses, we're driving around looking for houses for sale, and when we're not doing that, we're looking online for houses. Don't get me wrong - it's fun, but very time consuming. I realized that, for the first time in quite a while, I'm pretty well caught up at work and could definitely take the day off. And take the day off, I did! I'm always astounded by the amount you can get done on days like these. I watched the Today Show and Live with Regis and Kelly, did laundry, ate lunch, spent some time online, got fitted for the dress I'm wearing to Mike and Holly's wedding, went grocery shopping, did dishes, made some phone calls, and now I'm enjoying a cup of coffee and blathering on to you folks. After this, I'm going to clean the inside of my car, cook dinner, go to my chiropractor appointment, and then go to Acme with Kirsten and her entourage. It's been a great day so far.
Pat and I had a very nice weekend. Friday night, we had no actual plans. We ended up driving around looking at houses, and then went to Hogan's for dinner. We had a lot of fun and laughed SO MUCH. Later on in the evening, we stopped by Old Toad briefly to see PnF.com's very own Dr. Al, Cima, and Amy met up with us, and we went to Mex. It was kind of a quiet night overall, until Pat and I went up to the bar and got some...more serious drinks. We hung out with our friend Joel and talked about lots 'o crazy things. The night ended up with some street meat, so you know that's a good night.
Saturday, we went over to the Drs. Thing's new pad. Pat and I voted it "nicest apartment." It's so damn nice. Pat and I, along with Mike, Holly, Rebecca, and the Things, headed over to JD Filipone's. JD always puts on a great spread and this party was no exception. I even got to try my first mint julep. At first I was concerned (because bourbon is scary, right?), but by the end I was quite pleased, as you can see by my expression. Just look at us smiling - proudly showing the mint in our teeth with gay abandon.
Other than that, Pat and I have just been looking at more lack-luster houses. Well, we did see one great one on Sunday, but some lucky jerks already scooped it up. It was so nice and so cheap! It gave me hope though. I know we'll find a good one soon.

Eric and I looked at houses for months before deciding to build...it is super time consuming and a down-right pain in the arse sometimes...i think you two need to pick up a hammer and put on the painter's cap from Pa Reed and fabricate your own Reed Residence...it's fun, really. I promise. Better yet, bring that painter's cap with you, maybe I'll find something for you to paint...lol...

A helpful quote from one of our realtors:
"The chance of a lifetime happens every 3 weeks in real estate."
