Groovy on all counts.
I also would not mind a small apartment. My LI garage apartment was about 600 sqft, with a good 50 square feet of unusable space, and another ~80 square feet of closets (the largest of which constantly reeked of cat urine, because the litter box was directly above it, and one of the landlord's cat's preferred to pee in the corner). I had 8 guests for dinner one night, and numerous 5+ guest events there. So I know it's possible.
And I also don't think I can really feasibly move much more than 30 miles or so any time soon, so moving to Atx is sort of out. But who knows how I'll feel in the future.
As to coming down. . . hummm. Momma's planning a trip to Roundrock at the end of the month. I might be able to tag along, steal her car, and pop on down for a day or two. But it would likely be best to wait a bit and see how life shakes out.
I remain hopeful about finding the sort of place that I'm looking for, be it conservative *** garage or some sort of duplex or tiny old house. Despite my tendency to break down, I have a firm belief that everything will work out for the best, and at exactly the right time.
And I bet your neighbors think "bastard" when they see you boozing at 9am. They're just jealous (as am I
)
And on that note, is it time for my celebratory beer? Hummm. . . Absolutely-frakin-A it's time!
