Incidentally, we are going to be poor forever!
If you are thinking of early Christmas ideas, please contact us about paying either our mortgage or our rent - and thanks!

| In front of our new digs. |
Our place is very close to a park - but I'm learning that, um, everything in Denver is close to a park. It is also within walking distance of not one but two bookstores! It's a sign that we are meant to move here immediately!
It is also close to:
I think we're gonna do just. fine. here.
That's a major load off. Now all we have to do is fly back today, go back to work, and move out of the house by this Friday. It is very odd to think that we are paying for two residences but are essentially homeless until October.
Last night we had dinner with some local pals:
It was the best. That gal on the left is BFJ's lil sister - and because I don't use names on this blog, I'm very tempted to call her Nat King Cole because of the sounds of her real name, but I won't do it. I'll just call her N. Her husband F is an amazing cook and prepared quite a spread for us. I was like, "Did I mention we're about to live here? You can cook for us like all the time then!" I don't think they were as thrilled about that prospect as we were but whatever.
Another thing about this area?
FREE BEER FRIDAYS!
When we sat down for lunch and the waiter mentioned that it was Free Beer Friday, I was like, "as in, you don't have to pay for it?!" Why doesn't everyone in the world live in this area? Am I revealing secrets here or something? Am I supposed to sign some kind of residential contract that will forbid me to talk about how totally awesome this area is?
OK, time to pack and head to the airport pretty soon. I have a feeling when we land, my body will soak up all the moisture in the air and I'll balloon up like a sea cow. At this point, I won't even mind. It will be nice not to feel like I slept with a ball of cotton in my mouth.
See you peeps on the other side! That would be the temporary side!
