One definition of insanity is \u201cdoing the same thing, and expecting a different result.\u201d I think I may be insane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For one thing, there\u2019s the travel: In Norfolk VA all last week, got back last night. Had a very pleasant evening at home. Today I plan to go to physical therapy and then to follow a house inspector around the house that we\u2019re likely purchasing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oh yeah, we\u2019re probably going to purchase a house. posted some pictures<\/a>. Today we go in to try to get a feel for what<\/strong> is crazy about this one by following an inspector around. Note that on house purchase number three I am no longer wondering whether<\/strong> there is some complete insanity here \u2013 but about the nature of the insanity that I know is there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s a hundred year old victorian within walking distance to a red line T stop, has tons of sun and lots of space, is on enough land (1\/4 acre) to support my gardening habit, and, and, and. Most interesting to me is the fact that it\u2019s got 300A electrical service and the rooms are independently wired with cat-5e switched through a telco closet. The house served for a time as an office building, but is and always has been zoned residential. We shall see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Following the inspection, we\u2019re bundling into the car and driving to Maine for a weekend with S and A. They\u2019re awesome, and I\u2019m really looking forward to it. Sunday, we drive back, I have another pleasant night in my own bed, and then it\u2019s back on a plane to Maryland on Monday morning. Friday, I meet redmed<\/a> at the airport (note, not home \u2013 still in Maryland) and we attend sacredangle<\/a>s senior recital, plus chill with justkidding_nr<\/a>, thx4asking<\/a>, and derangedqueen<\/a>. Sunday, we fly back and come home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So far, the only travel I know about for the week after that is out Wed. night and back Thursday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In unrelated news, I stilled the cabernet sauvinon last night \u2013 and it seems like it might turn out pretty tasty. The American Ale is, as expected, hoppy and fun \u2026 and the Bass clone is going to rock.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One definition of insanity is \u201cdoing the same thing, and expecting a different result.\u201d I think I may be insane.
