Time to start saving!

I am watching House Hunters International, trying not to hate on every single person buying their dream/second homes in Italy, England, Sweden, Hong Kong, Costa Rica, etc.

Wait. I take that back. I hate them all.

Reese's Dark might just be my favorite thing in the universe right now...

Tonight, my mom invited me over for dinner. She made chicken mole, Mexican rice, and refried beans with salt pork. Best. Meal. Ever. Ripped from the pages of my childhood. I think she knows I am having a tough time adjusting at work and did the one thing she could to make me feel better. ♥ Then my Dad put gas in my Jeep and they both listened to me rant and rave for a little while.

My parents rule.

JP went to PAX East and is currently living it up with his gaming and toy collector friends. I miss him, even though he just left yesterday. *sadface*

Who are these House Hunters people and why do they have so much money?? I watch that show too and I'm like, "Wtf, I feel like I'm way smarter and more capable than these people, and yet there they are in Portugal buying a house for some 'light international entertaining of friends.'" Shoot me!

OMG, I KNOW.

I just tell myself that they all must have family money, otherwise I couldn't watch the show. Although, I did see an episode where the family was actually moving and their budget was only $100K (I giggled when all it bought them was a 2 bedroom apartment).

Then again, I see how it could be boring to make a show about poor people who can't even buy their first home in their own country.

Haha, otherwise known as my first year searching for a house. :P

Thank goodness for my 401K, which financed this firetrap I live in now!

P.S. I can never retire...
