The Great House Hunt

The Great House Hunt of 2007 has begun in the Louisville, Kentucky area. I finally was approved for a loan and have started looking for my first home. So far - I've discovered that new construction in the Louisville area is about as well-crafted as my 1997 Pontiac was by the time I got rid of it. Yeah...for those who don't remember my 1997 Pontiac - and those who did not even know me when I owned that car -I nicknamed the car. P.O.S. the last year or so before I bought HAL. P.O.S. mean Piece of Super-Fraga-cala-blah-blah. We all know what the S stood for in P.O.S.

Yeah...new construction in Louisville is great. I walked into one house where I had to turn sideways to fit through the doorway into the master bath. Yes...brand new construction with a doorway no wider than me turned sideways. Wow. One house made the 2nd call list - but it had one of the crappiest yards I've ever seen. So we'll see.

On a positive note - every house I looked at had that microwave hood thingie already installed - so Carp will have to buy me dinner or something if I win his challenge. The hunt if off till mon or tues because my realtor is tied up - but no big deal, I have about 15 listings I want to check out when the hunt resumes.

Since my hunt is off for a while - I'm headed to visit Laura in Miamisburg, OH for the weekend. It will be a good weekend...I'm very sure of it.

Hope everyone is well - and planning on being in Billings for Mr. 'I am not allowed to do anything fun anymore' Loy's wedding. The future Mrs. 'I'm not sure what they heck Mr. Loy is talking about when he says he's not allowed to have fun anymore' Loy has a new bridesmaid I hear. How nice.

Speaking of how nice. TNZ is down 2-3 in the best of 9 America's Cup thanks to a broken Spinnaker today...though I could never confirm that the broken kite actually happened since my tv has no Versus. Ugh...
