So, in accordance with The Secret, I’m going to ask for the exact house I want.
Dear Universe,
I want a three bedroom, two bath house in Ferndale with an open floor plan. I want lots of closets and a walk-in in the master. I want a full bath upstairs. I want a big front porch and a sunroom in the back. I want a yard for my future dog. I want to live close enough to downtown so I can walk my drunk ass home from the bar. I want a non-creepy basement with high ceilings (I’m 5’3″, I should be able to stand up in my own basement) I want a big kitchen and all the new, clean appliances to stay with the house. I want friendly neighbors with houses that are slightly prettier than mine who don’t call the cops when I have a party. I want updated windows, electrical, and plumbing. I want hardwood floors through out the entire house. I want a usable garage. I want this house before the end of the summer.
Thank you in advance,
Sarah
p.s. I reserve the right to add to this list as I see fit.

Uh, that sounds like a generally awesome house. I’ll be one of those neighbours in nicer houses!
thanks jessica!
amanda – thanks for the heads up, i’ll take that into consideration.
narm – of course! i’m not too worried, my friends do a good job causing a ruckus already!
Can I be invited to your parties? Although I will warn that this will increase the chance of getting the cops called.
My parents had a sunroom from hell. You should probably count it a blessing in disguise if the universe doesn’t come through for you on that one. Think black mold, ceiling leaks in about a dozen places, 140 degree heat in the summer, so cold you could use it as a freezer in the winter… long story short… they finally ripped it off the house and built a covered deck in its place last summer. They have already spent more time out there than they had during the 15 years with a sunroom.
The “non-creepy basement” is second only to the big, dreamy kitchen on my ‘importants’ list.
Good luck finding your dream house.
