Once again, my lazy ass took a blogging sabbatical at the expense of our devoted readers. I hope you can forgive me for letting you all down and crapping the metaphorical bed. I assure you that it will never happen again. Please forgive me, blah, blah, ...
The house inspection went quite well. Fran and I were pleasantly surprised at how good of shape the house was in, considering it is over 100 years old. There were some minor things that we asked the sellers to fix/take care of and there are some things that we will have to deal with over the next few years, but the inspectors said the house was in above average condition for it’s age.
We started the mortgage application process with ESL (the most kick ass credit union eva) and it has been relatively painless so far. Our next step is the bank ordered appraisal. We should close on July 30th. I think Maynard and Ruby are going to love the extra space and Fran and I are going to be happy when the liter boxes are in the basement.

I forgot to spell check that last entry, as I'm sure you all could tell. Yes, I am a horrible speller. But so was Einstien.

Also, that walk in closet reminds me of the "John Frohler" room in the house on Rutger's street that you two (and the other two) were so gracious enough to let me accupy for a month in the summer of 1999. The nostolgia is too much for me. Ahhhhhhh, the good 'ole days : ).

TELL ME you get to keep that faux tiger skin wall hanging in the living room. I would tear the mortgage up in thier faces if they try to hold out on you.

Wow, look at that place! What do you two, think you're adults now?
Might I humbly suggest the "Central Kegorator": keg is positioned in the basement with a network of lines running to taps located in each room. I'm not quite done with the blueprints yet. What do you think?

You guys definitely need to update more often, you're my only link to the outside world. Can't wait to see the new house next April.

Fabulous!!! Which room is mine?

Fran, you, and I will have to get together and decide where we are going to put the keg-o-rator. I think the bedroom would be great so I can just get up in the middle of the night, have a draft beer , and go back to sleep. Maybe we will just turn the refrigerator in the kitchen into the keg-o-rator and eat all of our meals at McDonald's.

If the litter boxes are going in the basement, where are you going to put the keg-o-rator?
