welcome to the futureI've officially started looking for a house. It's kind of cool. I should have done this ages ago. Of course, ages ago, I wouldn't have been able to hope to put together a 10% downpayment. I'm not quite there (I can do 5% easy for anything the CHMC will let me buy), but it's feasible with a little bit of shuffling. I'm getting the mortgage pre-approved now. They're telling me that's not a problem. My credit's good. I've just got one black mark from one of those "don't pay a cent till next year!" furniture deals which I forgot about paying off when it came due. But that's not a problem. I'm trying to stay within walking, or at least biking, distance from work. Biking to work seems like a good thing to me, although I haven't done it for a couple years. We don't have showers, you see. I'm sure my co-workers would appreciate me not showing up for work all sweaty and nasty. As for the other stuff, you know what? I think I'm finally getting the hang of this. I don't think I'm going to stay single for very long. I think I've finally got things in the right perspective. I'm tired of this stuff being all dire and traumatic all the time. I want to be able to enjoy it. I want it to be fun. I'm tired of feeling sorry for myself all the time. So I won't. Simple as that. I'm tired of always knowing the future. If there's a chance, I'm going to take it, just to see what will happen. I think I'd be a pretty awesome boyfriend. If people can't see that, that's their problem. Their loss. comments:
