I have good news and I have bad news. The Good news is, THEY FINALLY APPROVED OUR LOAN AND WE CAN BUY OUR NEW HOUSE! WE'RE GOING TO CLOSE ON WEDNESDAY! Sorry for the caps. I know that breaks all rules of internet etiquette. I only did it for two sentences so I hope it wasn't too painful. I just needed to express the happiness this brings. We have jumped through so many hoops to prove that we really intend to keep both houses and not walk away from the old one. I'm just a very happy boy. Once we close on the house I'm sure I'll let you know more about it. But for now, here's a little teaser. This is a picture I took with my phone.
Okay, so now for the bad news. You may want to sit down for this. I didn't realize this very sad news until this morning. Are you ready for this? Well, the bad news is that our new house is not going to be super close to DelTaco.
Our current house is less than a mile from Del Taco. It's been my special place where I go for tacos any time day or night. To show you how much love I have for Del Taco, here is a picture of me and my good friend the Big Fat Taco.
But don't worry. Our new house is only like 7 miles from our old house, so DelTaco is very much still within reach. But maybe I won't need it. With the extra square footage in our new house, I could build a taco stand in the basement. This idea has merit.
i'm not exactly sure where your house is at in lehi but just for your information, there are 2 del tacos in lehi. one right next to costco (which i believe is near your new home) and one near thanksgiving point. so maybe you won't need that taco stand afterall. i'm so excited for you to move here!!!
ReplyDeleteTracy, this is very good to know. I don't think it will be as close as the current Del Taco but it sounds like it's close enough to avoid building a taco stand. Thanks for your wisdom.
ReplyDeleteYou do know I know how to make tacos, right? You are a very silly man! Thanks again for letting us buy a house. I am super excited!
ReplyDeletecrisis averted!
ReplyDeleteMy closest Del Taco is approximately 326 miles away. This deeply saddens me. That would be one very expensive chicken soft taco.
ReplyDeleteJosie, you clearly live in the wrong state. You just need to move closer. Tacos are important and should not be taken lightly.
ReplyDeleteRobyn does make good food. But Jeff, I understand that sometimes you just need to go grab some Del Taco. However, I think going for a drive is part of the adventure, so I think the extra drive will give you even more time to enjoy the Del Taco run. I'll give it a try with you sometime at your new place.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I should admit this, but I've never been to Del Taco. I trust you that it's good though. :)
ReplyDeleteMaybe we can build a taco stand in the basement with a fridge and fill it with Del Taco. Then you can have one whenever you want!
Don't tell Robyn I wrote that. She'll kill me for encouraging you.
Megan, your brilliance knows no bounds. Also, I'll just tell Robyn that the whole thing was my idea. She'll never notice that you posted this comment on my very public blog so it's cool.
ReplyDeleteNO DEL TACO DOWN THE STREET?!! But where will I go get food on my way to your new place?! I guess you and Robyn will just have to feed me more often. :)
ReplyDeleteTry the big fat CRISPY chicken taco! So much better in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm..Big Fat Tacos.....Yummmmmm!!!!
