So we found this house.... it's pretty, it's very large, it's in move-in shape (though it could stand a few fiddly things like water-seal on the deck, and we would need to make sure the house inspector isn't seeing things we're missing). The catch is, it's in Framingham.

[livejournal.com profile] jducoeur posted in his journal that we are dithering. Unfortunately, it seems that most of the comments seem to be non-supportive of our moving out there. Waaaah!

I readily admit, we would already have earnest money on this house if it were closer in. No question, if it were in Waltham, or Watertown, we'd be all over it. (Though in Waltham, I think it would be in the upper 7s or low 8s in price.) Would our friends really not come to Framingham? Don't they already not visit us, and if so, does it matter if they still don't? We want to entertain - will we be refused?

More dither.

I asked about public transportation because while I am carless, I don't really want to inconvience my friends when I want to see them. So if I can work out a way to get myself to and from places, it's all good. Now, fortunately, I have pretty generous friends when it comes to rides and things. but I still don't want to put them out if I don't have to.

And I still think the commuter rail is neat.

I don't know about the commuter rail, but coming from NYC to see [livejournal.com profile] cvirtue and [livejournal.com profile] metahacker & flock on the Acela in a snowstorm was really, really, really cool.

Correction: MetaGEEK. I do it too. Meta - some -computer -term....

Metahacker is a nice guy, but I don't know him that well yet!

Arg. Sorry. I sat and tried to remember, and then got it wrong!! Eeek.
