My realtor read a magazine while the inspector and I went from room to room, him turning on lights and faucets as I watched him and whatnot. When he got to boring parts, I went and chatted with the realtor. The guy�s into feng shui (much like Crowhihs was a while back) and mentioned some stuff, so I looked some things up for the heck of it.

For those of you like me who don�t know much about this stuff, there�s something called a Bagua chart that tells you what section of your house is associated with what aspects of your life. You align the chart with your home�s entrance, and everything is laid out right there.

My loft�s entrance and washer/dryer area is the career/life path area. Can we be optimists and say that will leave my career path open with lots of room for more money? Riiiight...

The health area is the hallway. I�ve decided that it will be painted blue. That seems healthy, right?

The master bedroom is my creativity area [wink-wink-nudge-nudge], and the master bath -- much like these new house payments -- will flush any hopes of traveling.

The second bedroom/office/tax write-off is my family and foundation area. Wouldn�t it be nice if I freelanced like a mofo this year?

My living area is my prosperity/abundance space, and the reputation space is my balcony.

What�s quite interesting is that my kitchen is my relationship/love area. And as the realtor pointed out, having the stove in there is a good sign for passion. Tee hee!

He of the outie variety (as opposed to me, an �innie�) had better keep an eye open. With a condo stacked like this one, there�s bound to be something fiery brewin�.

He he. �
