You've reached Dr. Hermann Gottlieb. Leave your name, number, and business if you expect a return call. Thank you.

driftsintobuffetline: (let me explain why you're WRONG)
1. I know. I linked only for the Farmville name.
2. You're going to have a car. And why does it look cold? I see no snow. No thermometer. I don't know where you're drawing these conclusions from.
3. I don't think the furniture comes with. We'll redo it. I'm continually unsure of your style, dude. Old-man chic seems to require old-fashioned interiors and plastic coverings to furniture.
4. Hey, pink is manly.
5. SIGH.
6. Decent, he says. It looks like a cupcake. It's "cute." I thought you wanted quaint and away from it all. I am TRYING to be accommodating. MAYBE IF YOU WERE MORE SPECIFIC TO BEGIN WITH.
7. Houses seem to come in three flavors here: Barn/cabiny, Colonial, or Wannabe-Tara. Aka Cold and Rustic and lots of boring brown, Shutters and Siding, or FUCKING HUGE with columns and acreage and hoop skirts and Clark Gable.


What DO you want--since clearly my ability to anticipate what you might find attractive in a house (out of the way, quaint, not super swanky) and meld it with mine (unique, charmingly eclectic, and kind of city) is not blending successfully. I've tried to put us out of the way even though I've never lived in the country, okay? "Cottage" yields barns and cabins here, and I thought we were shopping for small, cottagey something or others.

What are you looking for? If you want your European Charming Cottage, we might need to move North...or just go to Europe.

driftsintobuffetline: (I will throw this at you ok)
2. Alright, point taken.
3. I'm sure I can retile.
6. Yeah, I know. It fit the bill for quaint, though.
7. Well, we've established I can paint walls.

I happen to LIKE your wardrobe choices. I just, ok, do have trouble removing that style from everything else you could possibly interact with.

We could always build something.

driftsintobuffetline: (well yeah you could do that)
What, you don't want to be Do-It-Yourselfers? XD

Surely someone around here has an exaggerated version of your power, maybe more stamina in the creation process. Or we can just hire someone like a contractor.

On second thought, building always takes too long.

How about moving west to the land of ranch-style houses? There's your flat level houses and then we just need to find one with big enough acreage to separate us from everyone else? So, you know, we can have all those loud arguments and raucous makeup sex and no neighbors ever have to know.

driftsintobuffetline: (bite my tongue)
I made a pons from scratch and you're doubting my ability to lay tile.
I'm hurt. )=

Thought that was sort of the point, being away from everyone?

Oooo fussy, critical AND determined modes--Activated!
Have I told you how hot that is?

I'm not talking about plumbing, Hermann, just a little grout and tile.

Well, QB has portals, so he's easy. But yeah, I guess if I'm actually going to have friends, I might as well have them nearby, huh?

Speaking of, add to my list: someplace for the kids to stay when they visit--even if it's just an office we can convert into guest-things when they have a fight and need to be separated for a while.

And I haven't mentioned it enough. Seriously, very hot when you decide to take matters into your own hands and make sure they're done right.

...At that point? We're currently upholding a pretense at THIS point? Honestly, Hermann, I think the only person in this entire world who didn't assume we were sleeping together was Joaquin for a while--

You should have experimented with different methods, Doctor.

"Technically."

Pointless?! Hey, now. We won the war. Some of those were very fruitful arguments. Anyway, I apparently do my best work when mentally, scientifically, and sexually frustrated by you.

However will you cope? Another decade pining away.

Well, THAT is obvious. No saint enjoys so much sin, right?
