Cliff’s notes version: Two thirtysomethings wondering when the magic “grown up” Fairie is going to come along and sprinkle them with responsibility dust. That’s how it works, right? Um.. Right?

We recently bought a house in a semi-rural setting after living separately in two different apartments in downtown Seattle. Witness the trials and tribulations of home ownership, multiple chihuahua ownership, and the overall oddness of bewildered thirtysomethings working through this whole ’sponsibility thing.

More about Sarah: Sarah was born dirt poor on the Bayou. She learned to play the piano before learning how to talk. She was only the tender age of nine when an alligator ate her entire family and was remanded to a foster family in upstate New York. It was there her amazing talents were quickly discovered and she went to work playing the piano at the family owned THOMAS KINKADE gallery. The rest, as they say, is history.

More about Steven: Steven was born in Amsterdam with the proverbial silver spoon in his mouth. As the only child of well-known American art collectors, he was educated in a Switzerland boarding school from the age of 6 and is fluent in five languages. Steven has since eschewed his family and their wealth in order to build a life on his own merit and not his father’s coat-tails. Steven has since found his niche in the computer industry and his only contact with his over-privileged family is the occasional cheese basket.
