I'm making the leap into house ownership pretty soon here. We're negotiating on a nice two-story built in '94 tricked out with new carpets, vinyl, and paint. It's in an association which sucks because I'll have to pay a monthly fee and chip in on street work/etc., but on the plus side somebody else will mow my lawn and keep things looking pretty. 3 bedroom, 2 and a half bath, and all that good stuff. I am very much excited about getting out of rental hell so why don't we talk about the places we live?
Maybe it's a penthouse condo in the city, maybe you're renting out a room in your buddy's house, or maybe you own a 5000 square foot mansion on a beautiful southern plantation. Most likely, you call your roommates "mom" and "dad." Tell me about the place you call "mi casa."

We call it the Space Booze Palace. I share said apartment with Artreus, Fire Truck, and another dude that doesn't post here. It's pretty cool, nice neighborhood, close to a mall and a bunch of grocery stores. I actually haven't driven my car in like a week so I'm saving a ton of money. It's awesome.
so i am back on the hunt
i almost put an offer on a place that had a fish tank built into the wall and fish ponds in the yard
but really
i don't want to swim with fishes

sometimes i miss houses
hopefully the next place i live has a backyard or roof access or something
One bedroom, walk in closet, one bathroom, galley kitchen, loft above the kitchen, spiral staircase to the loft and a living room/bedroom.
The building itself is a really old hardware store, so there are some kinda cool architectural elements about it. The elevator is slow as fucking balls though.
I miss being able to fuck in the middle of the kitchen at 3 in the afternoon on a sunday.
closely followed by not having to get dressed all weekend
I am in a suite with six other girls (two doubles, three singles, my roommate and I are in the largest double). Common room, two bathrooms. It's a step up from a tiny dorm room and the fridge is bigger, so that's good I guess.
The rest of the time I live with my parents.
The neighborhood I live in is fucking ridiculous for rent, so I'm going to move when my lease is up next February.
i have 3 roommates
2 of which i can yell at and call names and bullshit around with to my hearts content and they still love me
the other one, well, i've heard maybe 3 words out of him since he moved in 2 weeks ago
if i get this job i'm going for I might see if I can get some friends together and move in somewhere.
It is pretty nice except there is a pool next door so there are these irritating fucks around during summer

WISHLIST
it has wood paneling and a broken AC.
in one week I will be living in a space of roughly the same size, but with five other people to whom I am not related
I want to build my own house
they get nice views in the winter when you can see through the neighbors' trees to the mountains
I plan on doing this and installing a urinal and a secret door out of the house
you want a hidden outhouse?

It's a garage apartment, so it's built on stilts. But instead of parking under the actual living area like many garage apartments, there's a big storage room and then a huge, cooled laundry room under it and I park to the side.
Plus, it was built a long time ago and there's some really nice, really old hardwood floor in there. Not this new, fake hardwood floor that sucks, but the real stuff. Looks great.
I move my computer in tonight since the Comcast guy is just now coming tomorrow to get my cable and internet hooked up there.
Totally posting pictures tomorrow.
But I like that idea better
A door hidden behind a book case, leading through the spaces between rooms, leading to a secret bathroom
with a jacuzzi and walk-in shower and lots of milky/foggy windows letting in natural light
the windows are a must
just to see how long it takes people to realize that they have never seen those windows in any other room of the house
It's your house, you can jerk it in whatever room you want
No that's pretty great
Or better yet a trapdoor in a closet revealing a ladder that leads down to a secret bathroom in the basement
All pooping in secret
Because a secret room is pretty cool
Also remember the Hey Arnold with Grampa Phil's "secret bathroom"?
Imagine if that shit really was a secret room
pfff
only queers have bathrooms with a jacuzzi and a walk-in-shower and natural light
Like the normal one is pretty basic
But the one downstairs has a really fancy sink, ergonomically designed toilet seat, a power shower, and a Jacuzzi
And its own water tank just to support this shit
Or a tankless water heater
ahahaha
