So I had a dream last night that we went looking at houses and every one had something seriously creepy and scary wrong with it. One house was a duplex with a shared basement and the door leading to the basement was locked. I managed to get the door open and there was so much water in the basement that it looked like a lake and there were rats. Big ones. And my dad couldn't figure out what I didn't like about it. He said that it would just take a little clean up and then it would be a great house. I said, "Dad, there are rats in the basement." and he said, "Well they're just rats!" Then there was a house that had big holes in the walls. People-sized holes, bullet-sized holes.
We had a good night last night, though. Andie came out to dinner with us. We ate a LOT of pasta and breadsticks. We got home around 9 and the husband and I sort of collapsed into bed and Bean took a shower. She went to bed and we just didn't move. Usually I watch tv in the bedroom and read or knit for a few hours after Bean goes to bed and he usually is in the front room listening to the radio and reading or playing his playstation... it's zone out time. Last night we just fell asleep. In our clothes and everything. He woke up at about 1:30 and took the trash to the curb and then came back to bed. Apparently we needed the rest.
I did drive him by the house I like and he said nothing. "Isn't it cute?" I prompted.
"It's ok."
"Just ok?" Seriously, I'm freaking out here.
"Well how much can I tell by driving by?"
"But you don't hate it?"
"I saw it for five seconds, how could I love it or hate it?"
MEN!!! So here it is... what do y'all think?? 
I think it's a cute little (but not too little) house that is in a nice neighborhood and in our price range and I think it's clean on the inside and I want it.
I really need my daddy. Except for the rat dream, he's really good at judging the quality of a house. As soon as they get back from Vegas I'll set up another showing.
Do I really like this house or am I just sick of looking???

Well, it looks like it could be cute in the teeny picture. lol.
I think you must really like it. I find when I'm sick of looking, I just get a stomachache and despair that we will never ever ever EVER find the right house. I only keep thinking about a house if I really like it.
I get those dreams, too. Annoying, huh? Like you really need more stress while you're sleeping.
