building a house

[kuulani]

My boyfriend and I were talking about building a house together on his property one day.

He says as long as he has a loft upstairs with a spiral staircase, he's happy.

I say as long as I have a nice bathroom with a huge tub I can soak comfortably in, I'm happy.

What would be in your dream house?

oh my, you ask this of the architect?!

not going there...

JACUZZI no question. Had one, lived without one, have one again praise the gods. Don't care if it's a shack, has to have a jacuzzi. And a dishwasher. And a garburator however you spell it. Almost forgot - and a houseboy.

 

[kuulani]

Well, ris, at least I'll know who to go to for advice

Oh, I forgot to mention that I want a wraparound porch with a deck that sets the mood for some evening wine/beer.

Any preference for your houseboy? I'm evisioning someone tall, dark, & muscular.

(Hey if you have a houseboy, you won't need a dishwasher)

Nah... he told me today he designs little boxes. I'd steer clear...

MuFu.

oh yes you do, if he's tall, dark and muscular you want him to have time for something other than housework, right?

 

[Leslie]

that's exactly what I was picturing with a latin accent of some sort of course. I wasn't envisioning him doing the dishes though.......

Tons and tons and tons of windows and definately my own green room (greenhouse inside the house) and a big porch.

Leslie is gonna end up on the street after her husband finds out about her "houseboy."

*snicker* not likely, he'll have the nanny

I'm 5'8", 190 pounds, and can speak Spanish somewhat...

Gato

 

[unclehobart]

5'8 ? Hm... I always pictured you as 5' 11' 210. Is your head mirror shaved, ground close, or simple 1 inch clean military style?

 

[sbcanada]

5'8" - 190 lbs.? Dude, I'm 5'9" - 141 lbs.

 

[Leslie]

Gato bulked up at work. And Gato wears combat boots and hopefully commando pants for a living

I've actually LOST 20 pounds over the past 6 weeks. Guess that's what happens when you spend a lot of your time wearing a flak vest and helmet in 80+ degree weather...and THAT was just for Practice.
