Changes

I've been thinking lately that I'd like more space, more autonomy, less steps to the trash, less dog poo (yeah, not all neighbors pick-up after their doggies), more space, less HOA interaction and more space. I feel like it is time for another major change with my graduation approaching.
In other words I've been thinking I might want to sell my loft and buy a proper house. But...

But Austin is pricey and now that my 'hood has become the hipzone everything has doubled and tripled in price.
I don't have any funds, but since the 'hood is now the place to be I can probably get a lot more than what I paid originally. (And as much as I'd like to be able to sell it so someone else could afford to own a cool home downtown, I need the money so I can have a cool home.)
I'm starting to look and the prices are staggering, but I feel like it is time for me to sit at the adult table.

Now if only I can find a way to take my cute neighbor with me. (I am serious about this last line - I would hate not to see him everyday.)
