    I learned a lot about my house over the weekend

    like, I'd never before noticed that my kitchen is on the opposite side of the house from both bathrooms and the laundry room, meaning that the drain goes down into the crawlspace underneath, hits an elbow joint, and then runs across the house through the basement ceiling to connect to the main drainage line.

    This means that if the compressed air I used to clear a blockage hadn't worked, after having already tried snaking the clog or using liquid plumber, it would have been a real pain in the ass to clear. Thankfully, literally the last idea I had before calling a plumber worked.

    We've been in this house for about 2 years but we only just purchased it. We were renting from my wife's Mom for awhile but took over the payments so we own it now.

    Owning a house is kind of scary but awesome.

    Instead of pictures, I have a video that I took for my grandma to show her the house. This is the week after we moved in, we've since put an actual couch in the basement and re-done the countertops in the kitchen, pictures underneath the spoiler. Video has bonus appearances from my parents, wife, and dog.

    We also replaced all the appliances (which are in the video), since the ones they had were the most basic, cheapest shit you could buy.

    One of the things that always boggles my mind on some of those HGTV shows is the astronomical cost of even modest looking homes. Something that I could live in for low to mid 100,000 will almost always be around 800,000 on those shows.

    That door in the basement, however, still has not been put up. Six months later.

    I should really do that.

    Yeah, our 1200sq ft townhouse in Maryland cost 270. That price in South Florida, where I grew up, would get you a 2400+sq ft mini-mansion.

    My roommate's mother is in town and has plans to help us decorate the place while she's here.

    I'm more than happy to let her loose. I haven't put anything up yet and I just plan on handing her a stack of things and saying "Put these wherever you want. Or don't. Have fun!

    For that same price here in Iowa, I could get a house with 6 bedrooms, 3 1/2 bathrooms, over 5000 square feet on 1.15 acres.

    That's so big I don't think I would want to live in it even if I could afford it.

    check out that sweet-ass garden that doesn't look nearly so good now because it's no longer being maintained by the previous owner who had far more time and gardening skill than me or my wife.

    Yeah a while back I posted about a house I saw in my neighborhood on the south side of the golf course I used to live next door to. I was out at night walking and I saw this house:
    29aqwds.jpg

    All lit up and imposing. I was literally in awe. I couldn't stop talking about it. Now keeping in mind that this house is not only within city limits, but is also within a five minute drive of downtown of (I believe) the most populous city in Iowa.

    It's a $700,000 house

    So yeah. housing's kinda cheap round these parts

    Put my snowblower together and got ready to blow some snow... But I can't find my second extension cord so it only reaches about a foot out of my garage... I'm going to have to shovel the other 11 feet.

    Alright I'm game, though I am only going to photograph my room and the shared living spaces of where I live, privacy and all that jazz, ya know?

    So here is my room, where I spend most of my time:
    0CiBVnO.jpg

    jihkYhQ.jpg

    jhdBIv9.jpg

    I spend entirely too much time on games of all varieties...

    And for whatever reason my room has a bathroom that attaches only to itself and no other part of the house so, it's basically mine:
    pLzEQrN.jpg

    Then downstairs we have our entirely too large of living room. I use it for the exercise bike and reading while putting some records on:
    a87ZKcr.jpg

    Here is the dining room, which is used as an actual dining room like twice a year for Thanksgiving and Christmas and used at all other times for boardgames, partway through a game of ASL with a friend, though I may call the game because he is so slow at taking turns that I have forgotten most of what has even happened:
    IC0xcCb.jpg

    Here is our gigantic kitchen with its stupid amount of counter space:
    oWv2c2s.jpg

    UtTFuhC.jpg
    And here is the backyard with our pond where our turtle, Tortimer, hangs out. Look at that glorious Californian winter:
    kwTMyZA.jpg

    So yeah, that is my place. It's pretty swank, I must say. If people are interested I can scrounge up shots of my digs in Japan where I spent the last two years too.

    I live in a 150sqft closet with no bathroom with Weaver.

    I am considerably happier living here with him in a tiny little hole in the wall than I was in 1800sqft on 2.1 acres with my asshole family.
