So I've put a contracts down on ... lets see here:
5160 Rosa (closed July 10th, 2008 for 85k)
5015 Murdoch (closed August 15th, 2008 for 104k)
5340 Delor (closed November 20th, 2008 for 124k)
7355 Arlington (Josh!!! closed on this on February 20th[??] for 86k)
647 Cascade Lake Dr (Sold on Feb 24th for 178k)
6635 Dale Ave (Sold in ??? for prob around 110K)
7126 Kensington (Sold March 4th for prob 45k)
And (drumroll)
2218 Yale Ave (soon to be sold April 28th, 2008 for 72k)
That's June 08 to April 09 (close on the 28th). I am very excited. Very, very excited. It's going to be weird being on my own again, but it's been crucial for me to be at home with my family for this time. Emotionally even greater so than fiscally. It's not much, but I hope to have it paid off in two years. And, considering I didn't vote for him, it's awful nice of President Obama to give me $8,000 for 2218 Yale. I'll spend 7 of those 8000 to buy a domain, 2218yale.com.
So I'm trying to cheris the last time I'll get to spend living with my parents and it's wonderful. I have such amazing parents to treat me so kind. And they really enjoy spending time with me. They are such a unique couple, and I can see traces of it in my relationship with Carter. Maybe i'm insisting on this subliminally:
The president is addressing some questions post speaking. His blasé response to some reporter's question elicts a positive reaction out of my dad. I'm sitting between the two, Dad on my right and mom on my left. I glance to my right and my dad is raising his eyebrows and giving me the dad thumbs up of approval. In perfect comedic timing, I turn my head JUST in time to catch my moms glare prior.
That is like the perfect metaphor for my mom and dad.
