Yeah, he's mentioned it. I've definitely seen some of these ladies out and about, like at South Coast Plaza...5 or 6 foreign-looking pregnant ladies all hanging out together.

I don't think it necessarily is. My husband is very handy and can fix anything. It's an attractive quality. He grew up as "the man of the house" with just his mom, so maybe that has something to do with it.

I don't want a "Level 5." I like to start with a smile-and-wave relationship with my neighbors, then move on to hello-how-are-you, then eventually longer conversations and if things work out and we click, a real friendship. Truthfully, I think I only have a Level 5 relationship with my family.

But remember that if you'd had them sooner, you wouldn't have the kids you have now. Of course you'd love them anyway, but you'd have different kids. This is what I tell myself, anyway, when I wish I'd started younger. My son is such a blessing and I can't imagine having a different child.

This relationship level stuff makes me think of Roundcorners...where's he been? I remember he was always talking about wanting to achieve a barging-in relationship with his neighbors...I think he called it a level 5 friendship. That was his goal but it was impossible in Irvine because we're all...

I'm sorry, IHS. I hope everything will turn out ok. :(

A friend of mine put her Woodbridge house on the market a few months ago. She immediately started getting SO many offers (so she said), that she decided to raise the asking price. The house sold in April, $25k over the previous sale price in July 2007. When she first told me last year she was...

Are you considering any other options besides these two?

I feel ya...I feel like I'm too old to have #2.

Inspired by the "What do you think of my homebuying plan" thread. For us old-timers on the forum, what would you tell your younger self? What do you know now that you wish you knew then? I would say: Dump that loser and be single for a while. Do not go to law school. Do not tell future husband...

I'd say something to the parents. You can preface it with something like, "I don't mean to butt in, but I'd want to know if it were my kid..." etc. I think they'd appreciate knowing. If not, at least you said your piece. And think about how horrible you'd feel if something happened and you never...

I thought it wasn't about money?

LOL Bkshopr! Haven't heard that name in a while. His periodic absences from the forum have nothing to do with me. Anyway, I patched things up with him a long time ago. Sometimes I think I catch a glimpse of him on the forums... I keep telling you I know John's Creek isn't a hick town. I'm not...

I'm glad you are not offended as I don't mean to offend you. I actually don't think John's Creek is a hick town. I think it's  growing, affluent suburb with a cheeseball name. The question for me is why you are promoting John's Creek on these forums. It's not really feasible for most...

John Cusack! "Say Anything" is one of my favorite movies!

Living in Irvine is already a Korean Cultural Festival.

I think Baby Irvine is being serious when he said he chose John's Creek because of the demographics, and because he hopes zillions of Asians will move there, bump up the housing prices, and he will make lots of $$$ as a landlord/house flipper/sugar plantation owner/whatever. I find it crazy...

Well, I think she adopted the kids for her own selfish reasons. I think she's a narcissist and wants to think of herself as some kind of global do-gooder. She just goes around the world collecting children. I don't know if she really has the kids' best interest in mind...like with Pax, the kid...

You are a very kind mother to go to Boomers on Mother's Day! We went to the mall last Sunday, and it was horribly crowded.

I forgot to mention that I cannot stand Angelina Jolie, but I do think this is a good thing that she is doing in raising awareness about breast cancer.
