Back Home

It's so nice to be back at my apartment. I really enjoyed seeing Jeff, Joe, and Sarah and appreciated eating my mom's cooking even more. However, there's nothing like the freedom of laying in your own bed, with all the random shit all over your own floor (oddly, cleaning was the only thing on my To Do list not scatched off today). Lisa and I went grocery shopping today, went by the mall, and framed a few mementos from the Indy trip (Lisa's Wicked poster is currently being worked on). I went to Wynan's and the department and actually got work done. Lisa was able to work from the couch and play some Wii. All in all, it was great to just be home.

While we were at my parent's place, we got our hopes up about a property that showed up online. One of the Edge condos (Normanites will know where I mean) came up for sale as a bank owned property, meaning it had been foreclosed on. The normal Edge condo sells for around 120-160k, but this one was up for 17k. We did plenty of research, decided to buy it as quickly as possible, and then found out it had been sold sometime in November. While the economic advantage of it would have been amazing, so much of the excitement was just in having our own place and moving in right away. I get along great with Zach and genuinely enjoy rooming with him. Still though, it would have been great to have owned a place of our own. We are still going to look around and will buy something by August, but to have moved in so soon would have been nice.
