The last couple months of our life via twitter

Pre-approval letter in hand, let the house shopping begin!10:10 AM Apr 28th

Apparently it's impossible to look at a house without the realtor begging to be your buyer's agent. Back off people!1:36 PM Apr 30th

Finally going live with software that I've been working on for 2+ years!3:59 PM Apr 30th

First install and we run into a proxy brick wall...smooth4:43 PM Apr 30th

Done with an exhausting day of house hunting. Found a lot that we liked. One that we LOVED, in shawnee of all places.6:40 PM May 2nd

We still aren't sure if we could actually leave lawrence though. So much coolness in this town.6:41 PM May 2nd

Found another very cool house in shawnee. Love this area, didn't even really knew it existed before this weekend.3:01 PM May 3rd

My fav website these days: http://land.jocogov.org/ - amazing how some people are asking 2-3% above appraised value. Crack smokers8:59 AM May 6th

We just had a realtor tell us she wouldn't accept our pre-approval letter from BofA. Umm, seriously?5:47 PM May 6th

Officially submitted an offer on the shawnee house. Many knots in stomach.1:31 PM May 9th

Ugh...their counter offer sucks and they probably aren't going to like our counter offer...preparing ourselves to walk away from this one9:12 PM May 9th

Counter counter offer submitted. This is starting to get fun. Bring it on!12:13 AM May 10th

Still in negotiations, only battling over closing and possession dates now. Everything else is ironed out.4:32 PM May 10th

Our counter offer was rejected over...get this...$172 of rent we asked for because they wanted to live in the home for 4 days past closing7:55 AM May 12th

@ericjgruber That's how we feel. If this was such a big deal, what else would they have been stupid about during the rest of the process8:09 AM May 12th

Couldn't have said it better myself - @chibb's take on our offer being rejected - http://bit.ly/6m1Wt8:12 AM May 12th

Ben and @chibb landed safely in Chicago and Ben was a champ during the flight!10:09 AM May 14th

I don't know if "trained" is the word I'm looking for, but my wife is out of town and I still put the toilet seat down10:12 PM May 14th

Ugh...I've been up all night with the Buffalo Wild Wings Flu. No trail run for me this morning.6:58 AM May 16th

I slept 13 hours and feel a lot better. Still a little light headed and queasy and down about 8 lbs from avg weight. Never eating BWW again.7:27 AM May 17th

Excited that @chibb and Ben come home today. Trying to get the house cleaned up before I go pick them up from the airport8:08 AM May 17th

Choking down oatmeal with no milk. Apparently I have the bug where you feel fine on Sunday, but kicks you in the junk on monday.2:57 PM May 18th

Great bday dinner with @chibb, Ben, @kylejarcher, Allie and Sophs - http://bkite.com/07W4y7:20 PM May 28th

Buying a warranty actually paid off for me. Got a new TomTom 930 today cause 910 that I bought 3 years ago has been crapping out.2:31 PM Jun 6th

We hit a few snags today during the inspection and getting insurance. Hopefully all will be resolved quickly.8:37 PM Jun 8th

First ever #bike commute. 2.91 miles in 11 minutes and 2 seconds. Pretty easy ride. A few hills, but nothing major.2:01 PM Jun 29th
