What I'm doing now

I bought my first house!
After a year of deliberating between moving out of Evansville or getting a house in Evansville, we chose the house. The closing date was 12/6, and we will be fully moved in by 12/15. By we, I mean my girlfriend and I. We are so happy, and have many plans!
Still working on the van
Last year I bought a 1993 Mitsubishi Delica, a quirky Japanese van which has given me great joy. My goal has always been to convert it into a camper van. I told people my goal was to have it ready by this summer, but that turned out to be a terrible estimate. As such, I won't try to make another estimate, but I am proud of the progress that has been made and will list that instead.
