I don’t post, or frankly even comment, much anymore but I’m still around. I figured I’d check in with an update and an AMA.
It’s been a busy month. Started in a new role at work last week. Quite a drastic change from where I thought I’d be a few years ago. I now do data analytics, and it’s actually really exciting. I’ve worked late almost every day, even worked on something this morning. I think that’s a good sign because I enjoy it and I care, though I’m sure I’ll reign it in eventually because at this pace it’ll be easy to feel overworked.
On Monday my fiancee and I will close on our first house. The whole purchase process has been significantly more work than I ever anticipated, and I honestly can’t wait for it to end. I’m excited about the house, but more excited to put that whole stress generator behind me. Of course I’m sure the fog will clear to all the stress of how to arrange furniture in the house, the laundry list of items to change/paint/redo, and all the new crap I’ll decide i need to buy, but at least that SHOULD be fun.
So yeah, AMA b/c no one probably remembers I started the Oppo AMA trend. Have a great day, oppo.

Congrats on the job and the house! Is this the same house that you mentioned last month that comes with the garage?

Sup dude. How's the Mustang life, and should I trade my FiST for one and another responsible car?

What is the item that you are most excited to buy for the house? And for the garage?

Next October. We wanted a fall wedding and procrastinate too much to do it this year.

Mustang is great. Absolutely recommend to anyone that can afford it. The only downside is running costs, gas isn’t the worst but tires are expensive.

Oof, good question. As boring as it sounds I’m pretty stoked to finally get a smart thermostat. And since I have space for a dedicated gaming room, I’m finally going to set up my computer with a proper monitor so I can play games as intended.
The garage is just going to be great to finally have space to work in if needed, or for detailing the car. Going f rom a small 1 car to an actual 2 car.

Does your future house have those stupid bowl shaped sinks?

Nothing wrong with that. My first wife and I got married in July. That was a huge mistake. Second wife and I got married on Halloween and it was much better.

It can be very irritating at times, but good. We held our first ever tire rack street survival school last weekend and it was a big success. Some weather issues have frustratingly interrupted autox, but it’s been handled except for some loud whiny voices yet a few members have come to my defense for decisions we’ve made.
