THE GOOD: Weeeee are pretty much clear to go! Home inspection was done last night, and most of it was fairly boring (though really, for something like this, it's very much a "no news is good news" thing). There are a few issues that need to be taken care of, probably sooner than later--we're going to negotiate for either credit back OR they'll do it themselves. I-is it ridiculous of me when I was like "actually, it could be kind of fun to learn how to do it myself," I GUESS THIS MEANS I REALLY AM READY FOR HOME OWNERSHIP?? ps
enough_space and
vulchu even if you guys don't help I will expect you to keep me company and be my cheering squad. :B
THE BAD: Iiiiiii forgot to completely budget for this (the actual inspection itself, which, DUH I R BRILL, costs money). :B IT IS NOT A HUGE DEVASTATING DIFFERENCE and I'm already ballparking my numbers on the super-high end, but it pretty much means that until I get this figured out and accomodated for, I have to declare hiatus for anything irl that involves money. :( So this involves even eating/ordering out, because until I actually know exactly my numbers and where things are coming from, and where that extra money needs to come from (whether from my high ballparks or from something else), I should not be spending anything. I CAN STILL HANG OUT AND LIKE, WATCH TV OR GO WINDOW SHOPPING OR WHATEVER! In fact, at this point, I don't really have any major house-related things to do; we're in pending and until the closing date (June 7th) I AM FREE. Sob. Love me.
THE AHHHHHH: No, the \o_O/?!?!?! \o/!! feeling hasn't really worn off yet, gosh this is super-exciting. ONE STEP CLOSER TO PLAYING A GROWN UP IN THE REAL WORLD. And today I am wearing a shirt with rainbow butterflies in it and am seriously considering the merits of wearing my hair in pigtails while it's in that medium-ish length stage. I think this may be one of the few times I could pull it off, y/n? :|a
P.S. In epic battle of Prinny vs Dalek, who wins?

B: D'oh!! I had no idea home inspections were so expensive. O_o;;
A: I vote for pigtails. But you probably knew I would. ^_^
P: Prinny. Especially if thrown... >_>

B: It isn't, really--but it is more than I had accounted for, and enough that I am definitely going to try and be careful. :|a Maybe hit up some places where I can sell some of my accumulated junk this weekend.
A: SOMEHOW, I AM NOT SURPRISED AT ALL. XD
P: Well, I have one, and the guy whose desk is next to me has a Dalek, but it also has Companion Cubes for allies. :|a A tough decision.

B: Ah, yeah, I see. I don't know if there's one by you but Half Price Books is a good place to go to unload media for moneys.
A: *is predictable* OF COURSE, I would want to come visit your desk and see them the first time you did it... Hehe. ^_^
P: Oh, see, having allies makes the fight much less fair. Does Prinny have anyone it can call on for support? O_O;;
From:
no subject
B: There is one, actually! I just ... don't know exactly where it is. I've seen it while bussing back from the UDistrict, but I always forget to check where exactly it is. :|a Do you have to call in before, I know places like Twice Sold Tales and such require that.
A: MAYBE I WILL VISIT YOU INSTEAD!
P: ... ... ... I have some plastic pirate figures (like the oldschool plastic army men) ... ? Maybe? Also a sandal keychain.

You could come visit, too.
And congratulations :)

Are you guys free this weekend? That's when I was planning on packing up some stuff to donate/sell as I can.

B: Ah! Or as Shadawyn points out, you could come to the one in the U District and also visit us! And no, you don't need to schedule an appointment at 1/2PB. If you come during a busy time you often have to wait a little while, though, but you have to wait during slow times as well (just not as long) while they do the actual pricing.
A: I WILL NOT SAY NO!!!
P: *blink blink* Still Prinny...

I'm of the opinion that every major, responsible, adult-type accomplishment should be celebrated by doing something fun that lets one relax and feel like a kid again. XD This is my very roundabout way of saying: go for the pigtails.
