Road Trip: Atlantic Beach

On Friday at 3:45 a.m., we left for Atlantic Beach NC to look at homes and -- hopefully -- find me a job.

The job hunt went well ... I will post results as soon as I hear.

House hunt went really well. We put in a bid, which was ultimately countered, and we just came to an agreement this morning.

If everything goes well, we will be homeowners on May 2.

Did I mention that yesterday was One Way's 25th birthday? Horrible birthday ... being in the car for 11 hours plus ... whew. But I bought him some thai food and we have an agreement on the house, which has made it better, I think.

Anyway, those of you in relationship know how fun an 11 hour car trip can be ... so let me recap the events in the car.

One Way: Something controversial
Street Mutt: Something to the contrary
One Way: Explains why
Street Mutt: Explains why
One Way: Grumpy grumpy, grouch grouch
Street Mutt: Nag nag, grump, bitch bitch

The names are interchangeable but you get the idea. However, for the little amount of sleep we did get and the amount of time we spent in the car, most of these exchanges were harmless and easily defused.

Anyway, wish us luck on the house!
