AuburnVixen: oooooo....there's a really nice house in our price range!
P is going to say he hates it cause it's a split level...but it's got a LOT of great pluses!! HUGE garage, HUGE yard, HUGE master bedroom....It's a 5 bedroom house too! woah!
It's in our price range too!....I wonder what's wrong with it.
MischievousAngel: what is a split level?
AuburnVixen: a split level is when you walk in the front door into an entry area where you see stairs going up and stairs going down...it's like the basement is 1/2 under the ground and the top part of the house is more like a ranch where it's all one floor on top. They are cookie-cutter houses...they all look the same.
MischievousAngel: oh I LOVE those
AuburnVixen: you do??? EWWWW!
MischievousAngel: yes. I want one of those! Where I choose if you come in the rest of the way or not!
AuburnVixen: I don't love them at all because they are a dime a dozen around here. I used to like them, but since we started looking at houses, that's all we see and they are all the same. They also tend to be cheaply made.
MischievousAngel: Well I like them cause when you open your door to the living room everyone wants to look in. This way - if they look in all they see is stairs up or down. "Mother fucker keep looking inside my house and I'm going to push you down the mother fucking stairs!"
