OMG! It's happening! (This time it might be true!)
The house is ours! It's ours!
Other people bid, but they bid lower than we did. We bid the asking price because we knew it was a steal and that other people would bid below asking. I just found out today!
I logged onto the MLS site and they already put it under "Off Market". It's happening for realz!
Not only is it a great house, it's a great party house. We will be able to have the actual BEST parties ever. It's got a great yard and a great basement with a pool table and ping-pong table that come with it! Holy hell! It's happening!
I'm a little disappointed to be moving out of Ward 4, but we're only moving to 6B. It's just around the corner. Ward 6 is the ward of such former dignitaries as former-councilor, former-mayoral-candidate and all-around good guy Mark Lubold. Precinct B is the home of such lady friends as Foofy von Doofy. I'm surrounded by friends! We're surrounded by friends!
I stopped by Scott's work today to tell him the big news and he was basically stone-faced and unaffected. He said, "I'll believe it after the inspection." And, indeed, we'll see what happens after the inspection, but I can't imagine there are any deal breakers a-brewing in this joint. It's all out in the open. The place was empty and spotless. If there were something huge, I think we might have discovered it ourselves.
Anyway, we're still going to need a tear-up-the-floor party and we're going to need to have the floors underneath refinished, but that's no big whoop.
We'll have the inspection next week some time, then we'll have the closing, then we'll have the floors refinished and paint what needs to be painted, then we'll move in!
We are looking to acquire a gas stove and a proper refrigerator. If you've got any leads on either of these things, please let a lady know.
I'm so excited! And not barfing at all.

Congrats on the house and for not barfing!
We did a drive-by and it truly is lovely. and as close to ward 4 as one can get without being in it. Matt and I aspire to live in Foofy von Doofy's neighb someday.
Woot! I will be keeping my digits crossed for you.
You're growing up! Buying a house AND not throwing up! What about the weeping though? Openly weeping still? We can't lose that to maturity.
HOORAY! AND CONGRATULATIONS!
Awesome awesome... I've got my fingers crossed for you too...
