Brick. House.

Exciting news, everyone! Brian and I BOUGHT A HOUSE! As long as everything goes smoothly with the closing this Friday, we will be homeowners! Yes, that’s right; I’ve elected to never again be able to walk by overgrown plants, cracked sinks, and broken screen doors with a blind eye. This is a serious amount of responsibility.

I need to quickly and miraculously learn how to xeriscape, and foster an until-now-dormant green thumb.

On the plus side, we now have an investment. This home is ours and we will reside here for a loooong time. Which means, I get to decorate, paint, and put up shelves with the zeal of a Pottery Barn catalog designer.
