More houses looked at.
More houses looked at with bad basements and in need of $80,000 of work.
But over dinner, we decided that one of them is worth it even with the work we'll have to do on it.
So maybe... just maybe... this will be the new House of Love IV in 5-6 weeks.
Four bedrooms, a 2 car garage, and a shitload of purple and lavender carpet to remove before we move in!
That is if all goes well.
I'm kind of making an initial low offer based on what I'm making off of the House of Love III sale but I'm inclined to make a slightly higher offer if need be.
This house is in the ideal neighborhood for me, and is a brisk walk to High Street, the Whetstone Park of Roses, and a library where we can have crappy VHS copies of Doctor Who episodes sent to.
There houses are maintained. There are no abandoned cars in yards and the lawns are cut.
I think it'll work out in the long run.
The best part is that every dollar put in this house will eventually come out of this house.
The HOL III is at its max.
So...
Once more unto the breach dear geeks...
Nala,
I just received Movie Figure Dropkick (Purple Lowrider Pick Up Truck) from an Ebay seller who lives in Pataskala, Ohio
Have you heard of that suburb/town before? If so, what type of area is it in?
Sorry, to be a pain but I'm just curious.
Pataskala is a small town outside of Cowtown.
Pataskala proper is actually VERY cute and small-towny. My best friend from high school lives outside the town in a nice, wooded area... it's suburban hell, but it's pretty.
Thanks Guys - It's just plain interesting to know what type of people buy up all the
just-released TF's off the shelves & put em on Ebay. So that weirdos like me manage to snaffle them up before normal collectors like you do. :)
Oh, & I remember how a couple of years ago you ended up getting Energon Ultra Magnus from someone in Australia. If you, by some slight chance, happen to remember what town/suburb/city that person shipped from - I might be able to tell you something about where they live.
That is unless your curious like I was.
Oh, & completely off topic (because I lost your email) but I found this link to an absolutely Awesome Fan-Built Arcee that you guys just have to check out. http://www.tfarchive.com/creative/showentry.php?s=543
I bet most of you have seen this already, but after I saw it for the first time - It completely blew me away! Woh!
Fuck me, is that all? You'd be looking at paying around about $750,000 for that size house over here! On our current income, we could afford Blenheim easily, but as it is, we'd only be able to buy a 1-bed flat over a sodding Indian!

"There are no abandoned cars in yards and the lawns are cut."
So what you are saying is, in effect, that you would not want to live next door to Plastic Crack's Resident Redneck Commentor (e.g. Heavyarms)?
Not anymore.
I'm already surrounded by falling apart rentals where people don't mow the grass and weeds literally become small trees.
I just can't handle that anymore.
4 years is enough.
