Some big news
19 June 2009
- People start to yell at you to get your act together
- There's a lot to talk about
I'll focus on the latter instead of calling people out (although I do apologize it's been a while).
The biggest news is that we closed on a house this morning. We'll officially be permanent residents of West Hartford, Connecticut. We were just passively house hunting for a few months until we switch real estate agents. Our new one showed us five or six houses on the first day, and one of them was the picture you see above.
Instead of popping champagne and going out to celebrate, we figured it's our second house in as many years and we just got right down to business moving stuff in. For those of you out there worrying if we staked our claim in the neighborhood, the answer is yes. And to keep in our mood of, "oh, this is just another house to us," we actually won't be in town tomorrow.
A few months ago, I wrote about our upcoming trip to Fenway. It just worked out that it will be the day after we close on our house. Christi thought it would be best to use that day to pre-move before everyone helps on Sunday, but I told her there's no way we're passing up the opportunity to watch the Braves play during our first trip to Fenway. Plus, it completes my quest of historic stadiums to visit (Wrigley and Old Yankee Stadium being the other two), so we really can't stay at home.
Hopefully in a week or so after we're all settled, I can put up some pictures for those that don't live in the near vicinity (which is almost everyone).
