A strange interlude...

grayhawkfh...in which our hero explains an earlier post.
While I was, in fact, ranting about the local housing market and the fact that it's farging ridiculous, I am also well aware (and unsuprised by) the cost of housing on LBI. Especially housing that is on the waterfront, as that one was. $3 million is actually not in the top tier of pricing for LBI. But then, what do you want for a home on the shore? Trust me, the prices are like that all up and down the coast.
Sometime in the last year, I have come to the realization that despite the potential for storm/flooding damage, I would actually love to live on LBI. Even better would be a site where I could watch the sun go down over Barnegat Bay.
Sadly, I have not hit the lottery.
My point, I suppose, is that I should know better than to look at real estate listings at all. Either I get disgusted with the local ones, or I find myself looking towards areas that I might like to be in, but can't afford.
Either way, it puts me in a mood, and really, I don't wanna be in it.
It's Friday, and time to put such thoughts behind me. Have a good one, folks!
