I am so excited!!! I can't wait for tonight, I feel really good about it, I have been really nervous up until now. I had an anxiety attack last night. I'm not going to say it was because of the election, but I have definitely been feeling very anxious and anticipatory. We'll see...
The house will be mine on Monday. The painter is scheduled, the wallpaper is ordered and I currently am a little less than 5 days away from the end of an ebay auction I have bid on for a danish mid-century credenza with tambour doors that has no reserve! And I am the high bidder at $10.50! So that plus the $345 for shipping and I'm on my way to a hell of a deal.

Wait, does my ebay auction end the same day as I close on my house? No. I just checked, it's the night before. I have decided not to paint the wall below the chair rail in the dining room black to match the wallpaper. It is going to be a soft kind of bluish greenish gray. I'm still a little wanting the black but when I showed two of my friends whose taste I trust, they said it would looked like I colored on the wall with white out. I guess if I hate it I can always paint it again, it's a pretty small area. I was going to show it to you but the color online looks completely different from the color on the paint chip, so I don't want to scare anyone.
I have also decided that when I am moved in and have put all my stuff away in the kitchen, the first thing I am going to make is homemade peanut butter cups.

You think you were anxious--My mom went to the opera so she was calling me at each intermission screaming at the top of her lungs (apparently she CAN talk louder on the phone than she already does...I didn't think it was possible). You need to have an inaguration party in January and make a bunch of Obama themed items. Hawaiian pizza, Chicago brats with onions and peppers....and the brown butter blondies, just because they are to die for. Recipe?
