Well, more than a week since my last blog. That's a record since starting my account, I think. Every spare hour that I'm not in class I am out looking at condos or online researching condos. We have put an offer on a place but are still looking and there are two others I'm extremely excited about (one needs work...and for some reason, this excites me more).

I now drool over new condo ads beyond any appropriate levels. Someone intelligent on this site said recently that looking at listings is like "real estate pornography". I totally get it.

On the weekend we drove by a flooring store and I shrieked in excitement to see a 'SALE on hardwood' sign out front. Then my other half shrieked even more when he saw that they also sold granite countertops. Does this classify me as officially in the realm of the aged? Am I now an adult because I am shopping for tiles and crown moulding?

So let me ask you:

1. What, to you, constitutes being a full adult? (i.e. not living with parents anymore, not employed at a place that requires a hair net, etc)

2. Do you feel you are a full adult? Why?

3. What, if anything, is missing from your life right now that would make things seem more complete (money, although always wanted, cannot be the answer in this case)?


Thanks in advance for the insight.
