Ms. Tiger and I closed on a condo in Boston today. Now we need to pack, move, unpack, and have a baby. Then the really stressful stuff begins.

[quote="Nymr83":3ouduzpm]congrats, whose job took you to boston? will the wife let you get the baseball package?[/quote:3ouduzpm] We're not moving far, we're just switching from paying a wad of cash to the landlord each month to paying a wad of cash to the bank each month. And getting a home with a room for the baby. Plus there are lots of trees and parks in the area and a five minute walk to the subway which is huge.

Are you fom Southie?

Willets Point Aug 31 2007 07:13 PM

[quote="metirish":28c8h6z3]Are you fom Southie?[/quote:28c8h6z3] You won't believe how many people ask me that (and didn't you once think I was African-American?). I'm actually from NJ, Connecticut, and Virginia. I've only lived in the Boston area 9 years and I think I've been to Southie maybe 5 times.

metirish Aug 31 2007 07:17 PM

Yes I did for a long time think you were African American,you now say you're from NJ so that explains it. I'm certain Seo is African American.

Willets Point Aug 31 2007 07:26 PM

I was born in New Jersey but only lived there until I was 2, so I don't know how much of New Jersey is in me other than the toxins.

Seo has posted his picture here, and if he's of African descent, it's likely South African. I could be wrong.

Congratulations, your dreams are coming true :)

Willets Point Sep 02 2007 01:28 PM

Now I'm beginning to understand why I haven't moved for 9 years. Packing sucks! Interesting things I discovering that for some reason I still have: -copies of all my college (undergrad) applications and financial aid forms -notes from all the meetings I attended when I was on the board of the Catholic Student Association Both have been chucked. I'm sure I'll make more interesting discoveries as I continue to pack.

[quote="Edgy DC":q363xbjq]Seo has posted his picture here, and if he of African descent, it's likely South African. I could be wrong.[/quote:q363xbjq] Funny stuff. My mom's a WASP from Oklahoma and my dad's of Mexican descent from Santa Fe. But I do have soul. Craploads of soul. Congrats on the new jernt, Willets.

Moving in on Monday.

cooby Sep 21 2007 08:34 PM

I'll bet you are getting excited now! What a pretty time of year to explore a new neighborhood, too.

Willets Point Sep 24 2007 08:50 PM

All moved in. The movers were quick and efficient and came in about $100 less than the estimate. We have boxes everywhere to unpack. This neighborhood is so much quieter than where I used to live. Helps that it's surrounded by parks and greenspace.

cooby Sep 24 2007 09:04 PM

Willets, what was the weather there like this past weekend?

Willets Point Sep 25 2007 06:16 AM

Sunny, warm, clear - pretty much perfect.

Fman99 Jun 16 2008 08:26 PM

We moved into our new home yesterday. Bigger, nicer, a second garage space, more bathrooms, nicer neighborhood. Win win win win win.

Can I have the old place?

Fman99 Jun 16 2008 09:03 PM

[quote="AG/DC":y16pce6v]Can I have the old place?[/quote:y16pce6v] Ha! Send me a PM... we haven't listed it yet. I'll give you first crack and a CPF discount.

themetfairy Jun 16 2008 09:07 PM

Best of luck on the new place :) Our place is old - we're about a week away from its House Mitzvah.

Rockin' Doc Jun 16 2008 10:24 PM

Congratulations on the new home. May it be all that you envision.
