Just wanted to say Congratulations! and Woo-hoo! to the newest members of The Mortgage Club. It’s so awesome to finally be able to say, “I own a home!” Technically you won’t actually own it for another 30 years, but hey, at least you’re not paying rent. You now get to look forward to stupid Home Owner’s Associations and many solicitors trying to sell you water softeners, security systems, etc. Good luck with that!
It’s great to hear about friends finally “falling into” a situation where they are able to move on and up in life; getting something they deserve…like a home. We know what it’s like to be stuck somewhere you don’t really want to be. So, please, “prattle on!” I don’t think you’re being “high and mighty” when you discuss your new and exciting life rewards. I think you’re just trying to share your excitement with other people.
[I can only assume you hired movers to move you and that, I’m just not sure I can live with. Maybe if we can say that my used car is better than your used car…that would make it acceptable. Deal? I mean, I just can’t continue on with my life if my friends have better things than me. That just wouldn’t work for me.]
May you not forget to pay those pesky taxes every year. May you always cut your grass a day before the HOA inspects the neighborhood lawns. May you not have a neighbor who says, “can I have a beer so we can bond.” May you not have an annoying freaking parrot next door that won’t shut the hell up! May you always have friends who want to share in your excitement! And, may you always have a “fantastic job” and get bonuses that rock so you can buy a boat and invite your friends to the lake. Just kidding! No, seriously!!

Good post. Now let me twist it and turn it into something that I can tell to other people that will make them act like a child / glare at you / stick their nose up in the air.
Isn't it weird that we can all share things with one another w/o us thinking we're getting our nose rubbed in it? Oh wait, it's not weird at all.
