My landlord is a collosal jerk. He always has been, and he got worse a few years ago. Then yesterday, he got even worse. I am not going to go into details, but at this point, calling him a jerk actually maligns the good name of jerks everywhere. But I have managed to find a way to be thankful for his unfortunate lack of heart, soul, or anything else normally associated with humanity.
I'm buying a house.
It's still really early, I have only just started talking to mortgage companies and calling realtors, but it is really happening, and I am putting it out here as a way to keep myself from chickening out.
So here I go. Wheeeee!
One small postscript: I am not going to put my landlord's name on this site, because I would rather him not stumble across my blog. But if you would like to know his name so that you and everyone you have ever met can avoid him as you would Satan himself, feel free to email me.

WOW!!! That's fantastic, Erin! What a huge step, it does seem scary at first, but once you get the idea of it settled in your mind its a lot easier. Congratulations! have fun shopping-this is the biggest kind of shopping you can possibly do, so enjoy! I"m sure you will :)
I totally agree with Holli - you won't be too scared to think about it soon. That's so great! And way to stick it to your landlord - buying a house! ;)
you can do it! you can do it! i can't wait to see where you end up. It's time to go and get yourself your own place. You deserve it.
Yeah! Erin - this is great news. Big step - HOlli's right, it's a little scary, but totally worth it. You go, girl!!
DO IT, DO IT, DO IT! That is great..it is time Erin. This 30 thing is making you a real adult. What next? A dog?
I didn't sleep the night we bought our first house, but man am I glad not to be renting anymore.
