Sam honestly if you go to baseball you will probably get hit in the jaw with a baseball that will knock the rest of your crown out.

I mean, I would probably get a nice autographed ball out of it, and the crown’s loose anyway….:D

JOIN ME IN HOME OWNERSHIP SAM, ADULTING IS TERRIBLE AND GRAND

I’M TRYING. TRYING SO HARD. BUT I AM POOR AND THE BANK IS SUSPICIOUS. 

If I get my place you can pick out one (1) piece of Star Wars merchandise that I shall purchase and place in my home. 😀

Chocolate gingerbread with ginger ale? Recipe please.

Here ya go! I didn’t do the frosting, and I substituted a half cup of maple syrup for a half cup of the white sugar, and I used diet ginger ale, but it came out great. Super moist, almost more like a bread pudding. I’m thinking rather than frosting I might do icing, since drizzling icing will be easier than spreading frosting on it. 

A friend of mine is living full time in her RV at her Mom’s place and taking Regional Rail to get into work.  Would you ever consider alternate options such as a mobile home or RV to live in?

Not in this case. I wouldn’t say no to living in a mobile home/trailer in theory, like I’m not against it by policy. But it would mean living outside the city and commuting in, as your friend does, which I have a lot of reasons for not wanting to do – it’s hella inconvenient, it’s expensive (and also inconvenient, given the times the Metra runs) to commute in on Metra, and in order to afford a lot for the mobile home or be in an area where there’s a hookup for the RV, I would be living in the exact opposite of the kind of situation I’m trying to attain (in the deep urban area, close to the center of the city). Also I specifically designed my life around not owning a car, let alone an RV. 😀 I hate driving passionately. The further outside the city you go, the more inconvenient it is not to have one. 

I’ve been looking and waiting for a place in this neighborhood because I want to live in this area, since it’s convenient to the city itself and to transit to my work. You can’t really park an RV in the city, at least, not for long or with any level of convenience. 

I did actually consider a houseboat, since there are marinas close to public transit, but there are other inconveniences involved in that which I didn’t want to deal with. 

My friend Kevin, who lives in Grand Rapids, Michigan, lived in a trailer for years. (He lives in a house now.) Highlights of trailer life included needing to keep a space heater going under his house in the winter months so the pipes wouldn’t freeze and burst. So, I know you’re in a different state, but it’s not THAT far away, and being in an actual building has its perks.
