Time to face the facts!!!
What's up my people?? You know I am sitting here on a Saturday night cuz I have no chick. I mean I could be out doing something w/ some friends or whatever, but my nephew just left and I decided to just chill at the pad. It was good having him here, but I do kind of like my solitude. I can tell when it is all becoming a bit much...when I start coming home from work and go straight to my bedroom. But I think that is really kind of my own little personality glitch. I think I am becoming a bit of an ogre. Call me Michael Shrek Dean!! But let me just say this...my nephew is a benevolent pimp...and that is all I will say about that.
So now what is it you ask that I must face facts about? Is it the whole Han thing? Well I must say that I am seeing Paul and Han as much more of a couple now. Kinda like gentle changes in status and convo so now that is more real. But it should be noted that I took Han off my radar a while back. At 30 she is just way too old for me!!! :) You know I love you Han!!
Nah the thing I am facing facts about is that I am never leaving this freaking state. I mean I have tried and tried. I have applied for jobs in places as varied as Virginia and South Dakota. But the only place where I can get a job is CA. So I am facing the fact that I will be here for the rest of my damn life!!! One of the ramifications of this realization is the fact that I need to buy me a place. I have the misfortune of working in the SF Bay Area which means median home prices around $700K. SO that means I need to start looking at a condo or something. I mean all a condo is is a freaking apartment, but at least I can get some equity in it and get a big tax break, although I must tell you the whole tax break thing is a big old myth. I think the majority of people don't realize that the tax break is not really a break but just a redistribution of your income...but I digress. I heard some young manager who sits next to me at work the other day talking about her home and I decided what the hell. I need to go ahead and deal w/ the reality of living in CA, regardless of how distasteful that may be.
So I am about to start looking for a freaking condo. Or maybe I should start looking for a wife. I think if I got a wife I could get a bigger house. Well stay tuned folks. In the next 6 months I will be bringing you news of either a wife or a condo, but definitely not both.
HOLLA!!
PEACE

You tried to get a job at South Dakota? I didn't know you were so desparately trying to get out of California...
Actually you've called me old since I was 26 so is there anything new?
And you know the trick of the game, you get the condo, I'm sure the chicks will follow!
Well that is why I got the BMW!!!
geez, you're always hanging on here?!
I get e-mail alerts!!! DUH!!!
Dude,
1)if you get the condo, you can still not get the chick, but if you get the chick, you must get a condo.
2)You might re-distribute your income when you get the condo; but you will redistribute your income when you get the chick, no, sorry, you won't, she will!
That was quite funny and yet sadly true!!!
We bought an apartment 6 months before we got married - which made us feeling extremely grown up and broke. Although sometimes I do wish I was still renting so I could just move whenever I wanted to cos I just get sick of things so easily!
With all the hassle with packing up and all that we decided to have our floor done (from carpet to floorboard) instead of buying a new house and moving. And guess what, I just spend the last 3 hours packing - DUH!
Plus in Aus you dont get no tax break having your own place...
