Hi everybody! I swear I've been lurking a bit and not posting, but I haven't been around the last month very much.
Well, today I'm having one of those "OMG, I need to tell SOMEONE" days. So here we go...Ronalopolis and I put in an offer (that was accepted) on a house!
We've always had the majority of our games in a storage room because we've never had the room to put them out. The new place isn't too much bigger than the townhouse we've lived in for the last 7 years, but it does have a downstairs room that is about double the size of the basement we have now. AND the one we have now is also the computer room, which will have a dedicated room in the new place. So basically, we're going to have FOUR TIMES the space to put out all of our retro games!
We've still got lots to do before we can call the house ours, but the waiting without telling people (because we don't want to post it all over Facebook and then have something go wrong before closing) is killing me. Also, trying to figure out what games are going where and what kind of shelves we need and how we want to organize everything...I can't wait to take a measuring tape and the IKEA catalog to the new place and have a few hours to plan.
Unless something goes wrong, I'd like to post pictures of the transformation from what we have now and the boring room we're moving it all into, so people can see what all goes in to making it awesome.
