Holy crap what is happening to me

[sincere]

So here are the things the last 36 hours have wrought:

I want to move across the country.
I want to get a new job.
I want to buy a house.

Yeah. And the worst part is that all of that is within my grasp if I really want it. Our lease is up at the end of March and Colorado has not been good to me, jobwise. I've missed the east coast and I have my dad's money to finance a house with if I want. A house would actually be a cheaper monthly payment than renting. And then how grown-up would I be?! A homeowner! A regular big kid.

My mom mostly talked me out of trying to buy a home from halfway across the country in a place I've never lived in and don't know if I'm going to like, but I'm still secretly browsing houses squeeing at them. I don't even know.

And I'm finding jobs and applying to them, and so has rainfall, and she's already gotten a request for an interview. So. Freaking out right now.

I want to move. I want to get a job. I want a house!!

Right now the options are looking like Baltimore, Maryland area, or Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area.

I literally can't think about anything else at the moment. I've been ignoring my tags and Plurk for days. Someone help me. Or maybe I should just give in and take a short hiatus.

I can come visit your pretty new house, right? Right?

(also i'm playing tales of vesperia right now and no one forced me or anything!)

If you moved to Philly, I'd try to visit you! /o/

I hope everything goes well and you can get a house and job you want (both you and Li)!

My sister lives in the Baltimore area so if you have any specific questions on the area, I can ping her about them. :) (She uh, also lived pretty close to the worst part of it so she can tell you what to look out for too. '-';)

I don't know much about either the Baltimore of Philadelphia areas, but jobs and houses are exciting things!

[cypher]

Oh gosh, buying a house sounds so exciting! There's sort of no way I can afford it where I am right now (Seattle's housing market remains stupid expensive), but I pine for pretty houses an awful lot.

Good luck with moving and finding a wonderful place!
