I've just come to the realization that I am nowhere near as excited as Paul is about the condo we've put an offer out for. I would be TOTALLY excited about it if I knew in my gut that we really were getting it at a steal. I think we're getting it at some sort of discount but I'm nowhere near the certainty I would like to have before making this kind of commitment. I gotta say, so far, this has been much scarier than getting married.

Speaking of marriage, I think it's the reason I just realized I am not totally on board with this condo-purchasing-endeavor. Because, you see, my husband? He is so excited at the prospect of owning! His! Own! Place! Which he can UPGRADE! (Thus making the place even more ridiculously expensive than it already is!) And when he gets all excited like that I get confused and think I'm all excited too. Because he's just so darn adorable when he's into a project like that. And then we spend an entire five days of vacation scouring the net for the perfect faucet before I go to work and am actually away from him for several hours in a row and realize, you know what? I don't know about all this. Isn't it happening kind of quickly? Don't we want to think it through a little more?

But at the same time, what if this IS a great deal and by the time I'm done thinking the opportunity is gone?

Sigh.

What a way to start the new year.
