I bought a house. It's a perfectly adorable little 2 bedroom in Twin Peaks. Nice deck, garage, hardwood, stainless appliances, rock-solid inspection and earthquake bracing. It cost a small fortune, and I've been freaking out -- totally freaking the fuck out -- about it ever since. Can I afford it? How the hell will I move my boat anchor of a TV? Do I really need 7 years of Macworld back-issues? Will my neighbor in the building be a dick? Mostly it's that first one -- how the holy fucking hell am I going to afford this thing?!
It was very un-San Francisco. It was my first bid, I bid slightly under, and it was accepted. Pest is only $400 -- I guess the average being about $5000 in SF.
I feel so, uh, 'adult.'
Here's a few pictures:





Hey, that looks great! I can't wait to see the rest!
