    I've heard this "patience is a virtue" junk all my life. I'm happy to say I have no virtue, no scruples, and no desire to wait too long for anything. In my humble opinion instant gratification takes too long!

      Yeah, I was thinking of going to a local bank and seeing how much I would apply for to see what my range would be as far as monthly mortgage payments and house price. It would be nice if this day-dream could turn into a reality because the prospect of having my own place and being able to do whatever the hell I want to with is is the biggest attraction (well aside from living by myself).

        I ate lunch at Cuoco during the interview. I had a simple marinara pasta dish with meatballs that was delicious. I had crumpets at... I don't remember the name of the place, but it was tiny, and had a lot of people at it. They had organic peanut butter, and it was delicious. It also looked like I was a dog that talking all day, since the PB by itself was gluing my mouth shut. I had breakfast at the Sports Cafe at the WAC, pretty decent. I also had tamales at a mexican grocery right across the street from Pike's Market (where we also had fresh donuts that were GLORIOUS).

        I didn't have any mass-produced food until I got to the airport and I needed something fast to shove down my gullet before I got on the plane to Dulles.

            Best feeling in the world......I swear it is like you have a whole new attitude and level of confidence when you have your own home.

            Come home and pull into your driveway, your garage.......just a great feeling. Total freedom and sense of pride.

              But you need a harem like Tiger had! One woman isn't enough!

              Then again I don't want to hear about you getting attacked as you try to drive away...With your line of work it wouldn't be golf clubs but rather PCs being thrown at you

                    Fantastic!! I have Cuoco noted as one of the places we're going to check out while we're up there. I've heard the Lamb Raviolis are incredible.


                    For the record I hope you get the job.

                      That's what my interviewer had. He enjoyed them (while he was still grilling me).

                        That's why I like renting, well not that I really have a choice, but if something breaks I call the landlord and they take care of it. Although, unfortunately I have a ditzy daddy's girl for a landlord that doesn't really care if things get fixed or not.

                            That is why you get good home owner insurance....and then you won't have to pay $6,000.
