At least you got it to yourself? We're currently in about 500 sf. - colin Oct 20, 09:16 33
- you should get a tiny house! -- nm - kare Oct 20, 09:39 3
  - that will probably be the end game after living in the trailer! - colin Oct 20, 09:49 2
    - I like them too. It must feel so freeing. -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 09:56
    - humans *need* mcmansions! ;) - kare Oct 20, 09:54
- you found something? -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 20, 09:20 4
  - yep! little shotgun style duplex. it's cute :) - colin Oct 20, 09:21 3
    - Excellent! - Mel Profit Oct 20, 09:22 2
      - yessss... - colin Oct 20, 09:25 1
        
        sounds like a great stop on the Nick and Nora World Tour. We'll discuss. -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 20, 09:38
- why? -- nm - decline Oct 20, 09:19 1
  - i'm trying to lose weight, so it's motivation to be smaller. - colin Oct 20, 09:21
- why would you want to be in something that small? I mean, what's the point? -- nm - amanda jones Oct 20, 09:17 21
  - it'll be a travel trailer :) - colin Oct 20, 09:20 20
    - Ah! That's awesome. That's what I miss about moving in my 20's. Only what would fit in the backseat would come with me. -- nm - The Devil and Daniel Vermin Oct 20, 09:23
    - ps. are you going to run America's only rolling brew op? -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 09:22 2
      - i'll probably start cutting down to little 1 gallon jug batches, but yes :) - colin Oct 20, 09:26 1
        
        ohhhhh, there's a guy who does this. visits small breweries and makes crazy esoteric recipes. -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 09:57
    - I can kind of understand this. I feel weighed down by lots of possessions. -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 09:21 15
      - my mom's house burning down really made me realize how much *crap* I had. I started donating and selling at once. -- nm - amanda jones Oct 20, 09:28 13
        
        nice job! it's hard at first, but feels really good once you get going. - colin Oct 20, 09:30 12
        
        definitely feels good. -- nm - loosibery Oct 20, 09:58
        
        meanwhile, I feel the opposite... - Mel Profit Oct 20, 09:36 6
        
        i understand this completely - colin Oct 20, 09:45 4
        
        For this time in your life, where you're exploring, your stuff is secondary and yet you're getting a lot out of other things which I get too. - Mel Profit Oct 20, 09:49 3
        
        that's why a lot of people retire into those boss motor homes.. exploring in style! - colin Oct 20, 09:52 2
        
        my parents are those type of people. -- nm - tRuMaN Oct 20, 10:03
        
        my Aunt and Uncle have been doing this for 10years... - Mel Profit Oct 20, 09:54
        
        It's like you are a Sim with the "new stuff" mood buff :) -- nm - con_carnage Oct 20, 09:44
        
        it is addictive, it really is. -- nm - Andie Oct 20, 09:35
        
        I'm mostly done. I can't live with *nothing.* -- nm - amanda jones Oct 20, 09:34 2
        
        i've limited myself to clothes and computers. it's all i need to work/play. - colin Oct 20, 09:36 1
        
        you've heard of the 100 Thing Challenge, right? -- (link) - znufrii Oct 20, 09:40
      - Yeah. If I acquire a lot of stuff, it sort of stresses me out in a weird way. - con_carnage Oct 20, 09:25
Ahhh, so you finally came out of the closet -- nm - amoxy Oct 20, 09:15 1
- But it was a choice to live there, so... ;) -- nm - The Devil and Daniel Vermin Oct 20, 09:16
