Hey Everyone,
Sorry if I've been out of touch for the last month or so, but I moved into a new house on June 1st and have been without phone and internet for much of the past month. As you can see in the picture, it is actually a house, and not an apt!!! That's right we are movin on up! I can't tell you how much I love this place. I've been told the large door on the right leads to something called a "garage"... apparently for parking a car, who knew? My roomies and I decided NOT to get cable, and I think I like it. With no TV, I've been doing much more productive things like reading, and exercizing! Anyways, I'll try to get caught up on all these posts either today or tomorrow.

Nice pad. Where is it located?
I too wish to own property some day, but alas, I live in the Bay Area. To own here I'll have to marry someone who makes just as much money as I do and one of our entire incomes would have to go towards the mortgage. |

Congratulations Kevin! I love it! It's beautiful! Ok, I get a little over excited about things like this, but I appreciate home ownership!
BTW I am going to email you about some business things.

Yep, thats how it is. I honestly don't know how young people are affording homes today, they are so damned expensive. My home is now worth over 5 times what I paid for it. Sounds great and it is, but at the same time, I will be here forever as I can't afford to move anywhere else! |

This house is awesome! Just fantastic!
Like everyone else said, I too hope to eventually own my own piece of real estate. But that time is far, far away I'm afraid.
Sidebar: Kevin, I haven't forgotten about the tapes. I WILL do them...some time. And you WILL get them back, of course. Please forgive my delay. |

Did I miss the part where Kevin said he bought the house? With a bunch of roomies, I was assuming they are renting... especially in SoCal, where only millionaires can afford to buy a house.
BTW, Kev, I haven't gotten cable either, but I found that I spend all that money on NetFlix and DVDs instead. I can't win. ;-) |

Right, I noticed that too Teri, but regardless of whether or not Kevin owns this house, I would like to eventually own one.  |

| I wondered about that, but someTIMes people buy a house together since it's too expensive on your own these days. And Teri, where have you been? You've been missed here. Peace, Robin |

| haha yeah, I wish we owned that place, but we are renting it from a lady... still pretty expensive $2100/mo. If we were to buy it, it would go for around $600,000. Teri is right, So Cal is way overpriced right now. The house is in Irvine, CA which is in Orange County (The O.C. as it has become known as). |

I agree with the "cheap" comment. In Redondo Beach that would have been way more than $600K.
Sorry for being gone so long. I've been busy at work so haven't had time to post recently. Getting a new boss next week (I think) so hopefully life will get better...
