YAY! Meet us in our back yard, we'll have some cold beers in the garden.
We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Mentioning houses made me do a little virtual shopping in Seattle again...
And I want this house: [link]
The very first thing I'd do is repaint it something less, um, monochromatic and minty, but I want this house. Too bad we're not shopping until 2009, and that's assuming the inheritance comes through at the level we currently expect...

Punishingly Intricate
Man, now *I* want to move to Salem! I could totally afford that house!
Or, a house on my street! I'd babysit!

Holy shit, Nora! I had no idea things were coming down that much in Salem. 200-300K was about the range I was thinking I could go for in the next year or so, but I was afraid I'd have to move significantly farther out (and probably off the train line).
Also, speaking of beer in Salem, have you checked out Gulu-Gulu Cafe yet? I haven't taken a close look at their selection (or even been inside) but from passing by it looks like they are definitely going for the exotic end of the beer spectrum.

I want this house near where Jessica lives.
Oh man that's pretty. But I'm pretty sure it's too far east for the school district I want to be in. (And also, you know, $1.7 million. Details...)
[eta: This one, on the other hand, has a wine cellar! And is closer to the park! OMGWANT. Anyone got $2.5m they could lend me? I'd let you use the billiard room...]

Tom and I are quite fond of the Gulu-Gulu. Good place for lunch. Has fancy coffee, good beer, and really good hummus. It's hipster waitstaff service, so you shouldn't be in a rush or anything. I like the space, too.

Seriously, everyone buy homes in Salem! Let my loss be your gain!
Signed, we will never, ever move.

Do you know that ita has been looking for those for a really long time?
I do. Heck, given that the inside of the toes is worn down to metal on these, she's not the only one hunting.
Wow, Salem is cheap!
