    Every time you go above limit on your calories with carbs and sugar, douse yourself in black coffee immediately. Also, it might be water weight. You had two bad days.. I am assuming lot of fat/ sugar /carbs? I didn't get to walk, but I exercised my mouth plenty- ate salad till it hurt :P Eating...

    Would you buy a house..

    I LOVE that Eichler home in Orange and keep dreaming about how I can update it to suit my taste! But then.. I can't be far away from the sacred land :'( Ideally we would love to be in Tustin Ranch, and still have our great wannabe schools.

    Would you buy a house..

    Talking to the neighbors is a great idea SGIP! I have no clue about what's beneath, it's bubbling up pretty good, that's for sure :) We talk about Irvine and being priced out a lot, but those in the market know that the border cities are no less!

    Would you buy a house..

    Santa Ana/ Orange/ North Tustin somewhere there in that area :) My ears are very delicate.. got screwed up during my wisdom tooth removal. They don't need airports- any change in elevation and they act up. SoCal- 2.5!? The only reason to move to FHR would be brownies like I could never make, and...

    Would you buy a house..

    Without ice I skid away from that heaven :P There was no way I could do that drive at 8am in the morning, getting late everywhere. The turn space near the property was so small, California court in comparison looks like a stadium!

    Newer Irvine listings with crazy WTF asking prices from equity sellers

    I did use a couple of examples from this thread, and referred this thread on at least four of my posts. This is a landmark thread IMO! Documents the change of housing from getting heated up to almost bubbling.. and may be post summer to the mini dip?

    Would you buy a house..

    Mostly there will be ice.. and that reminds me. I am an Asian driver still, no matter how good. I have no idea how to drive in ice and snow. Yes, almost every deck had a drop. IHO, yes, IC also pointed that out. OK, back to square one. 3.0 search ended in Modjeska Canyon. 3.1 ended in goat hill...

    Would you buy a house..

    This is an example. The property I am talking about is somewhere where the ears felt slight pressure :) Noted down: Rainwater. I should know this. My childhood home was on a hill and when it rained the school bus dropped me at the cross street to wade home. The water would rush down, almost...

    Would you buy a house..

    Lets say this:http://www.redfin.com/CA/Santa-Ana/12612-Vista-Panorama-92705/home/3417610 Landslides happen here? My other concern is the teen driver in next 3/4 years. Oops, I hit it again mom!?

    Thanks for sharing the link NSR- argh @ the cornerstone of treatment is avoidance of triggers known to cause syncope in that person. I do try to avoid the usual trigger points. I don't even need to put anything in my mouth. The saliva tastes metallic..

    Would you buy a house..

    .. on a hill with amazing views, good floor plan and a good enough price.. and.. a free-fall of a driveway? I understand it's not easy getting in and out of a house like that four times a day, but what are the other pitfalls?

    NSR- you were mentioning sudden drop in BP leading to that metallic taste in the mouth. I read the post on my phone but didn't respond I think. I lost where that conversation was happening.. can you tell me more about it? My usual BP is low- I never go above 110/70, and sometimes have gone as...

    I have no problems eating out, but the problem starts after I eat out.. a veggie burger with a side of onion rings on whole wheat at Islands fills me up for the whole day while a morningstar burger made with Lucille's sauce and bakery bought whole wheat buns only fuel me for 3 hours.  Things do...

    Why are you on TI?

    Mostly for a good distraction.. to get local facts/ information. Meet locals who shy away at hello in real world. Real estate info.. I don't care much about current trends and prices, but I like knowing about California courts and the conservatories :-)

    Retail Openings and Closures

    LOL! Am I the only one who actually shopped there? IC- you are right about almost no one shopping there. Sometimes at 3.30 I would be their first customer. What do you guys think will occupy that spot?

    Retail Openings and Closures

    Garden Patch Indian market is closing. Guess Aria stole their business with cheaper prices and fresh(er) merchandise?

    Read a book? Ain't nobody got time for that...

    I had high hopes about Lean In. Didn't know it would turn into a drab read relevant for women in my mother's era. But, I did read the book cover to cover :) I deserve a medal for that. I also shared several pages worth review/ personal experiences/ analysis with a group of friends. I deserve...

    Read a book? Ain't nobody got time for that...

    I am sure nothing I read will remote contribute in anyway to this post, but what the heck! I will post away :) Just finished: Lean in. Husband had to go from one Costco to another after work to show his support to his wife with a work life. Did the book contribute in anyway towards enriching...
