Mary Jane's Last Dance

it said in my trait "snapshot" that I was "depressed". Depressed? ME? AW HELL NO. I'm on top of life thanks, I have never felt better. I'm about to have a new job (that's not retail :) ), I'm about to get married, we're looking for houses... DEPRESSED? UH NO.

totally inaccurate imo, I think the only things it was right about was conflict (grew up with it, HATE it) and romanticism (I'm such a hopeless romantic sometimes) and possibly paranoia because I get heavily paranoid about violent criminals sometimes (Hey, I'm a short, attractive female. In the animal world I'd be a juvenile, injured deer in terms of prey.)

Today Chris and I drove by the house we were looking at on listingbook that we were amazed by.

In person, it was less than spectacular. Isn't that how it always is? Also, I wasn't too fond of the neighborhood. Kind of white-trash, rednecky, run-down. People don't take good care of their houses there. I could feasibly see toilets with flowers growing in them and beat-up, non-functional cars on cinderblocks in the front yard. :(

So that was a bust, but there are plenty of houses to look at here, so all hope is not lost! This is just the beginning! :D


Also, today we rented out a storage space near our house that is brand-new. We pretty much got dibs on the best location of storage rooms. We moved out some of our junk today and we're going to drop off more tomorrow.

Yay! Now we can actually get into our closet again!

I think Shadow (our cat) is kind of unnerved by us packing up some of our crap. She was an abandoned cat after all, so maybe it's triggering bad memories or something along those lines.
