� | click here for flickr! 2004-07-21 moving wishes the one we hope to find by october i don't expect to get them all. it doesn't always work that way, but an overall feeling is what i'd like and that i think i can get i want a house. with a yard. and two bedrooms (office/guest room necessary). i don't really care what the bedrooms are like, i just sleep there lots of light a good kitchen a nice bathtub a good yard for boogie no upstairs or downstairs neighbors. no shared walls. did i say lots of light and a good kitchen? i can't emphasize how nice a good kitchen is. and lately i sure love to cook and i get the sense that i'm going to get way more into it as time goes on. my favorite rooms in a house are the kitchen and the bathroom living room comes in tied with those though i guess, also very important ... because that's where you spend the bulk of your time that isn't in the kitchen or bathroom i take lots of baths. i'd prefer a clawfoot tub but i'm not gonna hold out for it or anything. when i own, i can insist on the right bathtub. maybe. but most of all. i want it to be a place that i love to be in. and other people love to be in. and i think we can basically take anything and make it that. one doesn't have to start with something perfect to make something perfect. i want, when i say "hey, can you housesit for us while we're in hawaii [costa rica, vermont, the mountains, hiking, camping, sleeping on the roof, carmel, aruba] and take care of boogie and water plants?" [haha. i kill plants. as if i'll have plants. but i can daydream about a garden can't i?] people will say "oh yes! can i can i?" ok, maybe that kind of excitement is unlikely. but a nice escape for people living in apartments or with roommates. with a bbq in the back and a nice living room to relax in. a place where i could have mom stay in the guest room and i'd feel GOOD about it. this is going to involve much better cleaning skills on my part. and potentially a chore day. as a kid chore day was always saturday morning but amy suggested that sunday night is also good, and i realized i don't have to do things the way 'family' did. right. i'm the grown up now. (uh.) oh, by the way, i want all this for under $2000. that means the east bay, yo. anyway. i'm excited. and i think we can get what we want and still save money. [ previous� �|� � next ]
