Oooooh. OK, yes, it’s clearly haunted and pink and I don’t know which is worse, but ooooh! Let’s go inside, shall we?

What… what… what happened here? Something nice, right? There was just so much niceness floating in the air from all the nice things that some of the nice sparkles fell on the carpet and turned it had nothing to do with explosive… wait no wait people read this while eating… I mean maybe someone spilled a cup of coffee with great enthusiasm. Let’s go with that.

“To be honest, it needs some work, about $30,000 to make it pristine again plus your labor of love” sez the listing, and I presume FLUSHING THE TOILET would be the “labor of love” part.

Let’s see… if I spend $30,000 on the necessary cleaning supplies… well, let’s just take a peek at what I would have to set up my first day in the house:

Loveliest comment, just because I love it when this happens, by Rehab Man: My wife and I are actually buying this house – it’ll be our 19th house we’ve acquired in our Victorian neighborhood. We’re preservationists, and are careful to preserve what’s old while providing modern amenities. This house has some gorgeous woodwork in it from the 1880’s. Unfortunately, it’ll take more than $30,000 to rehab it – the roof alone will be $15k as some one pointed out. At least the furnace works in this horrid winter! I’ve listed our website (www.summitlane.com/1127) so you can follow our progress!

What? Why would Hello Nurse send this to me? It’s a perfectly fine quilt, not really my style but… oh. Wait. That’s not a quilt. That’s a… a… It’s a house. A house where people live perfectly normal lives, where they eat and sleep and read books and pay bills, all the time surrounded by walls with lizards and horses and dinosaurs and Bible scenes and I don’t know what else.

To which I say: good for them.
