I just bought my first house!!

I'm no longer a property virgin. Someone have a martini for me please!

Congrats. Its a great, but scary feeling owing that much money to the bank but so much better than paying rent and someone else's mortgage.

So close but no cigar! Or more like new car in my case :sad: My Dad almost had a deal to trade his custom chopper for a new car for me and the salesman/dealership owner originally told my dad he'd make the deal work. Then got back to him a few days later saying he couldn't :sad: Guessing he was going to buy the bike himself and his wife said NO causing the deal to fall through :pout:

I love this hobby but I wish it was easier on my wallet.

The 180 gallon looked HUGE when we put it up and now I think we'll need a 600gal or more so my fish can be happier.

Did anyone see the new issue of CORAL magazine? The swiss couple with the 925 gallon on page 105 is gorgeous. I'm pretty sure I need one :mrgreen:.

Visited Red Coral Aquarium over the weekend. No offense to the new guy but I have to say, it's weird not seeing that Doug guy there. I miss him :-(

Nobody cares about your baby :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen: Aw, come on, I'm kidding

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

Next thing you know she'll be asking for the car and bringing boys home

And, for the record, you don't need a "Dad Gun", just a sticker on your front window

on the topic of guns.....

while in vancouver over the weekend, I went to a gun show (actual fire arms show, not the gym lol) with my dad and he found a piece he's been wanting for years but couldn't afford or find for that matter... while he hummed and hawed knowing he'd be broke forever if he bought it, i told him to think about it... he walked away I went the other way, grabbed the guy that owned it, had him hide it just to be a jerk... went and got into a car with a complete stranger (was working the admission table and was with the association, so i figured i'd take the chance, asked him what he drove and he said a Jeep liberty and I said okay good so you're not going to kill me... he laughed) he drove me 5 min to the nearest ATM and back. I then ran back to the table and paid the guy for 75% of the gun... and he told me that my dad had just been back to the table to buy it and he told him it was sold... said it looked like my dad's heart broke. I went and found my dad (busy joint.. took a few min) put my hands on his shoulders and he said "it sold, I knew i should have just bought it" and I could tell he was really upset so I smiled and said "daddy go pick up your gun" and he just looked at me with utter confussion... I said "75% off isn't so bad is it, happy early fathers day"... his jaw dropped... we walked back over to the table, the guy pulled out the gun with a brand knew trigger lock on it, and said "on behalf of your daughter, happy early father's day"..... I don't think I have ever seen my dad so shocked and confused at the same time... except maybe when I told him I was gay! lol! Like a kid in a candy store he walked around so proud! It was great! it's not often that I get to do things like this, and I may have pushed the pocket book a little (but I still managed to go bug Jim and OA and pick up a few nice corals after)
He went home, and got online right away... turns out that because all the serial numbers match and it was in amazing condition... we paid 1/6th of what it sells for in the US and 1/10 of what it actually can go for in canada!

That was the highlight of my vacation home.... I just wanted to share my story!!! it was nice to get him something other then a princess auto gift card for once in 5 years!!!

Ouch.. jk

If I were to get a gun it would be something very scary, maybe I'd just put an anti aircraft gun in the front entrance, with a sign saying "keep it in you pants"

reefgirl189 05-24-2012 03:14 PM

What a beautiful story Flash!

You're a very thoughtful daughter!

SeaHorse_Fanatic 05-24-2012 07:08 PM

lol! it's wasn't shared to get props... but thank you guys!!! I am very close with my family, they have done a lot for me and it's hard only seeing them twice a year for such a short time! I was just fortunate that I had been saving for new goalie pads for myself and figured my pads will be fine for another season or two! So it was a good feeling to be able to surprise him like that!

On a reef related note... I HAVE A FREAKING MANTIS IN MY WORK REEF TANK..... FML..... just spotted the little bugger while taking a break and staring at my tank... just a little light green dude about 1.5"
I blame my boss, he gave me the rock! lol!
