Yesterday we saw a very nice batch of houses. We hit fifteen in one day (by the end I was ready to die), and for the first time, there was a large number of pretty nice houses, houses I could see myself living in. My favorite was a house in Roseville that was large, had an overlook of a swamp area (call me crazy but I LOVE swamps), and deeded access to a lake (aka lots of people have deeded access probably, but that would be okay). It had a nice layout, and was in very nice condition with the exception of the fact we'd have to repaint the cupboards in the kitchen or flat out replace them. That's fine by me, really.
I dont' really know what Erik thinks. Yesterday on the way home he said that none of them wowed him, but he couldn't really tell me what he'd be looking for in a house that was going to wow him. Unfortunately I think it's one of those subjective things, and the problem with those subjective things is that they may not actually be achievable. I really liked this first house. But we haven't talked about it since. I tried to bring it up, I asked him if he didn't want to put offers on any of the homes we saw yesterday, and he got testy and snapped at me that 'he didn't say that'. When I called him out on being testy, he backed down, but then I didn't push the issue. And now I'm in the midst of a veritable week from Hell for school and work, so I don't know if I want to bring it up again lest I lose my mind.
I was so stressed last night I had a panic attack that i ate too much yesterday and so I went for a run. I pushed myself to the point of feeling sick, and while I'm feeling a bit better about things today school wise (my food intake I'm still feeling wary about) I'm nervous about Fort Snelling today. It will be my first day doing a tour on my own, and I don't know if I'm in the school or doing laundry...
