Starting Over is Scary

Back in Cleveland

So my brother asked me to come to Cleveland to help him look for houses. He thinks that he is ready to buy. Maybe he thinks that I am "experienced" because I did it once. So I drove down here on Saturday and started collecting home magazines. As if this whole process it going to be difficult. Right up my alley I think. Anyway, last night we hung out with his neighbors upstairs, Brook and Brigham. They were a lot of fun. We played Parcheesi and then watched the new John Cusack movie, Ice Harvest. I know that some of you are John Cusack fans but let me tell you, this movie was even worse that Must Love Dogs, if that is possible. He was not funny and the move was really stupid. Just for future reference if you were thinking about renting it. So today we drove all over Cleveland and surrounding areas to look for places that Chris would consider buying a house. I think that I have seen more of this city than where I am living now. I saw some really amazing houses and then some that were mansions with gated driveways and cameras that were crazy. I also convinced my brother to buy two new suits. He can afford it. Sort of. The funny thing is that we have to cook for the neighbors twice this week. Yeah, cook. Not exactly my strong point. Plus Chris doesn't even have a stove or oven. He uses a electric camp burner and a microwave. I will have to share those stories later I guess because I think that he is expecting me to be able to do this cooking thing. I told him that the only thing that I make is egg drop soup but I am not sure he knows that I am serious.
