We live somewhere else now

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

We’ve officially moved, again.  This is the fourth place we’ve lived together in the last three years I think, which is really crazy now that I’ve said it.  But this one is different because it’s not an apartment.  Get ready for this one, we’ve bought a house.  Yep.  And it’s a nice one too.  New appliances, new furnace, new roof, new deck.  There’s only been a few tweaks to make so far.  Like replacing the doorbell that doesn’t ding (it only donged), and adjusting a door plate so the bathroom door will shut and lock now.

Pretty soon (not sure when we can do it yet) we’ll be having a party and inviting everybody over to see it.  Hope you guys can come!

We’ll post pictures soon, as soon as we unpack the box with the right USB cable in it.  Plus everything is a gigantic mess at the moment and we’d rather show you what it looks like when stuff is put up.

80’s Prom

Saturday we went to Prom, WOO-HOO!  It was Daniel’s first prom experience, and not exactly what a High School prom is like (we hope).  We were the Prom Photographers for the evening, $10 for 5 poses on a CD by the end of the night.  Not just poses, but cheesy, awkward, uncomfortable poses, as if you weren’t married to your date and you’d never really held hands before.  People loved it!  So many people that we actually broke even and made a little bit of scratch that we were then able to go out fancy for Valentines Day!

Just about everyone there was dressed the part, except for a group of people that looked like they just came from a wedding where the bride convinced the guys that “Pink is the new gray”, or she got them sloshed enough that they didn’t care they were wearing pink vests.  Because they were definitely partying before they even got in the building.

Next time we go to prom we have to go for prom.  Even though it was fun and great to work, it wasn’t a real prom experience, and Daniel needs one of those.

Saints Win!

Daniel’s team won the Superbowl!  Yay for the Saints.

Superbowl time again

This year Lori picked the Colts, so Daniel has the Saints. We’ve each won one in the past two years. And according to everybody that doesn’t live where the Saints are from, Lori is going to take it this year. We’ll just have to wait and see.

Flight of the Conchords is stuck in our heads

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

We’ve been watching Flight of the Conchords lately.  It started with Season 2 that Lori wonderfully brought home one day, just out of the blue.  And once that ran out we had to get our fix from season 1 since we haven’t seen all of them.  It was a few days ago that we say the Leggy Blonde episode, but it’s been stuck in our heads all day today.   It’s Lori’s favorite so far, and here it is . . .

No house :(

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

The bank (They own the house we wanted . . . still want) decided not to take our offer, instead going with someone else. That stinks! Somebody just got a house for somewhere under $100,000 less than it’s worth and it wasn’t us.

Our agent says there are more fish in the sea, but we aren’t seeing ‘em. Even with all of the fancy sonar (website with a map of all the houses we can afford) there is nothing. We would have better luck if we were on one of those tv shows where they look for houses, because then people would see how pitiful we are and send us money.

Funtime
