    So, I've just signed the contract for my first house, had a technician look it over and everything is in the clear. Great layout, great price, great running costs, great locations for dog and children. Everything feels good about the deal, both me and my wifes agree. No cold feet what so ever, all other houses we have bidded on I had some hesitation but now I'm just exited. And add on top of that I mailed a recruiter for an add out of a whim because there's a position that felt perfect which would remove all IT-management from me and allow me to focus 100% on development and gotten great response on that. Now I'm getting anxiety that there are some bad news on the horizon instead...

        If bad news comes in threes, why not good news as well? :) That would mean that you've got another good thing to look forward to!

        If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack. --Winston Churchill

          I'm with DP on this one, wait till after the 3rd good thing before fretting over the inevitable bad thing that will appear.

              Don't really believe in superstitions like that so I'm not too worried. I believe the biggest risk is that if I run around expecting something bad I'll instead create the conditions for something to happen. Sooner or later life will happen but I'm not one to think its because these things, just unconnected events that you choose to interpret as such. With that said I'll most likely see a lot of suicidal wildlife on my drive home today. ^^
