Sep. 25th, 2006 08:31 pmNothing says "devotion" like when your wife tells you that she took out the garbage and you look over and see it all bagged up right there near the stairs... and you love her anyway.
I simply cannot eat enough food today. This always seems to happen to me at the height of my progesterone and I just want to eat and eat and eat... mostly salty carby foods. I'm not usually a chip person but right now I feel like I could eat a whole bag of chips. Yesterday due to factors beyond our control, we had chinese food for lunch and dinner... and I wanted chinese food again! Mmmm, salt. I also have the worst skin ever. Gross.
I did not have chinese food, however. I did "junky" with a bowl of pasta roni but added a chicken breast and some peas to it. Since I previously would have just eaten a whole box of pasta roni, this is a big improvement. I also ate some pineapple that Jen was lovely enough to cut for me. But I am still hungry! I'm glad we don't have any junk in the house because I would seriously eat it all. As it is right now, I want to make a banana bread and eat it all but I know it wouldn't be ready for a long time.
Want. To. Eat. More. FOOOOOOOOD.
(And no, this doesn't mean I'm pregnant. It's like this every month. I'm such a chow daddy. YOM.)

Okay, I want a house now. I hate being in "desperation housing" mode, because I'm afraid we won't have the time to shop around and really find that perfect place. I know there is no truly perfect place, but you know what I mean. Here is a place that is currently catching my eye for its "je ne sais dork." (The yard blows me away.)
But this is cute, too.

Date: 2006-09-26 01:13 am (UTC)That house is so interesting to me, because the blue vinyl siding is SO UGLY, and that rock weirdness in the living room is SO BIZARRE and the linoleum in the basement is SO RANDOM. But the tiered back yard and the deck from which you can see forever is SO GORGEOUS.
It kind of looks like a Brady Bunch home from the front, doesn't it?

Tell me you'll visit all the time and I'm so buying it. ;)

Date: 2006-09-26 01:59 am (UTC)I'm serious if you want to go to Derek and Gloria's wedding with me! It's Saturday at 7:00pm (October 7th).... there's a rehearsal dinner on Friday, too, but I think I'll just go to that on my own.
I would love to stay with you, but I'll do my own thing during the day if you want.... I can take a train or something from your place right?
I could have Jeff drop me off somewhere on Friday during the day....
Anyway, we can talk later this week. :)
I fly out of Boston Sunday morning at 9:00am. Can I get to the airport from your house? Train or whatever?

Date: 2006-09-26 02:20 am (UTC)If you don't mind my lame jokes and terrible dancing, I would love to be your date! But you have to call it a date! :) Do you think Derek and Gloria would mind? (I mean, I wasn't invited to their wedding and stuff, so is it weird if I show up?)
You can totally stay here as long as you'd like. We have keys and you can come and go as you please. We're right around the corner from the subway but we're not in the heart of town (which is a bummer). And yes, you can get on the train to the airport from here as well... you'll just have to go early and stuff because it takes a little while and I know we have security up the wazoo here right now. Or if you're REALLY nice to me, I could drive you right to the front door. :)
But we can talk anytime about this. Anytime at all. Well, except when I don't answer the phone.

Date: 2006-09-27 05:40 am (UTC)So, I'm thinking..... I can get to your place sometime on Friday (maybe I can convince Jeff to drop me off on his way to New Hampshire...), and probably go to their rehearsal dinner which I was also invited to that night in Waltham and then hang out with you guys maybe on Saturday... then go to the wedding?
So much fun! I miss you! :)

Date: 2006-09-28 01:35 am (UTC)I get out of work early on most Fridays, so whenever you want to come by is fine. You can get settled in and then head to your dinner. And then maybe on Sunday we can head out and look at more houses or something.
I am excited to see you. Are you planning to stay through the weekend? Should I food shop for you? Buy you flowers? :)
xoxo
Hungry?
Date: 2006-09-26 02:01 am (UTC)BTW, I hadn't read that book. So sorry.
Re: Hungry?

Date: 2006-09-26 07:27 pm (UTC)I like the first house. It would be fun to furnish it with a bunch of retro funk stuff. And there's lots of room to grow stuff! Looks there's some kind of sun room, too! Cats would love it.

Date: 2006-09-27 01:37 am (UTC)I think the first house is pretty groovy. We're supposed to be looking at it on Saturday to see if it's as cute in person.
It's not a sun room, that's actually one wall of the living room. At least, that's my best guess from the inside pictures.

Date: 2006-09-26 07:39 pm (UTC)my email isnt working, best house ever, across the st. from my friend:
176 Crescent St. (in Noho)
For Sale By Owner
413-585-1675
617-417-8991
(that might be 617-917-8991, the handwriting was crazy)
it's fucking gorgeous. crescent st is a couple blocks past smith, and this area is i think the sweetest, homiest, baby-havin'est part of noho. there are like 4 for sale signs all right around here. my guess is the one above is probably out of your price range, but here are some more:
also, orchard st is a reallllly nice location: http://www.gogginsrealestate.com/7orchard.html
(lots of homey queers there)
