Casa Charnas-Bezek Is For Sale...
Or, Casa Bezek-Charnas. Or...Casa Charzek-Benas. Or Casa Charbez-Eenek. Or Casa Harness-CheeseWhiz. Or Casa Charbroiled-Bean-Burrito. Or...Oh shit, I dunno.
We're selling the crib.
Yep. The gays are moving on up.
There is no way that I can listen to The Jefferson's theme song and not be happy. And I ALWAYS sing along. I can't help it. And I do it with a bit of fervor, I might add. George and Ouisee would've been proud of me.
But, anyway...Back to what I was saying. We're selling our place. So, I guess technically, we're not moving anywhere at the moment...just selling.
Will and I have talked at great length over the last few years about relocating. And of course, we decide to do it when the market has never been worse.
We talked about Santa Fe and Taos, New Mexico.
We talked about Massachusetts.
We talked about the Hudson River Valley of New York.
We even talked about Paris and Buenos Aires.
We would like a house with a yard. And Will could really use a bigger studio for his work. And we just can't afford that here.
Well, we've decided for the time being, on the fair city of Cleveland, Ohio. (The who, what, when, why, where, come-hither-tither-mister-sister-titty-twister to come later.)
If you'd like to see our home's listing, please feel free.
The tour gives you a very good idea of mine and Will's home. And I'm extremely proud of the work that Will has done. He always says, "We", which is kind of him. But, in reality, it's "He". He did the work.
When Will moved in quite a few years ago, there was cat-pissed soaked carpet throughout. Which believe it or not, DIDN'T cost extra! I know...
He has since replaced the flooring, done Venetian plaster on the walls and glazed ceilings in the Master Bedroom and Master Bathroom. He tiled the kitchen counters and replaced the sink with a black, granite flat-bottom one. He added a wall with an arched window sectioning the kitchen off. And he tiled the fire place and mantle. He tore out horrendous florescent light boxes and completely remodeled our bathrooms and updated lighting fixtures throughout the joint.
Speaking of joints, with the whole selling and moving thing, I think I'm going to need one. Or five. Or ten. So, please pass it if you have it.
In the meantime, mi Casa Charbroiled-Bean-Burrito su Casa Harness-CheezeWhiz.

Drew Cary's "Cleveland?"
Well, Cleveland Rocks!
Hey, you'll be close ... almost ... 2 hours away.
Sending good vibes that the beautiful crib sells FAST.
Don't goooooooooo! I promise I will be better.
i feel sort of upset about this for no good reason. how about middle GA? i mean, you HAVE A WIFE AND KIDS HERE.
Oh, the stress of being a home seller. I have never been one, but I work with them every day. The photos are stunning and the staging is very nice.
It's a lovely home!!
Oh hurray. Now you'll HAVE to come see me! Yippee!!
Cleveland is a wonderful place. I've been thinking about asking Will to design my book cover, but I'm too embarrassed. What do you think?
Nancy - thanks for the good vibes, my friend. And two hours, hum??? How do you feel about Halloween in Cleveland? Seriously.
sueb0b - I PROMISE that I'll be coming out here regularly. I promise.
Liv - And this way, I'll be closer to you all, no?
Mary - Thank you. We happen to really like it. And actually, we didn't stage it. Except for the part where we shoved all our crap under the bed.
Claudia - You're so damn cute! Don't be embarassed, just ask him, sweets. It's a collection of porn, right?
um i am kind of in love with your house.
and you, but whatever
Ugh...moving blows. I am sending thoughts of stimulants (legal and legal) your way.
NOOOOOO! Dammit, I read through with bated breath, hoping you were going to say, "Portland. Portland FTW!"
But no! FAIL has occurred, and somehow, you are now moving still further from Oregon! Lame!
(I am happy for you, though. Just sad for me.) :)
Flutter - Thanks, baby. You can still be in-love with me and the crib, no? I mean, I plan on taking you with us.
Manager - Thank you for the stimulating thoughts! Woof.Woof.Meow.
Mel - I'm sorry, my friend. But, you don't know how flattered I am. So, thank you for that. I have a feeling that I'd love Portland. AND you as my neighbor.
Holy shit. Your house is selling for a half mil and looks like a kick-ass art studio. You are way too good for me.
Cleveland? I welcome you on behalf of the Midwest!! Ohio though? Are you sure? There is another state nearby that ROCKS! We could use your humor and Will's decorating skillz! (BEAUTIFUL home!)
Wishing you the blessing of a quick sale! I bet your dollars will go a long way in Ohio! Invite us to your compound -- I'm only about 3 hours away from the new destination! Congrats!!! Bring the comrade hat -- winters are cold!
Your home is gorgeous, Kevin! Good luck with selling. :)
Wow, that's a beautiful home.
Cleveland. Well, it's supposed to be an up and coming foodie haven, so it can't be too bad....
Jenny - Au contraire, baby...au contraire.
Grim - 3 hours away?? Excellent. Then, we'll expect you at the Halloween party!
Mama Tulip - thank you. I have Will to thank for that.
Major - Thank you. And actually, Cleveland is a beautiful city.
Now I'll NEVER make it to your halloween party.
If you need me I'll just be sitting over here pouting.
Lovely home!
Cleveland? And here I was thinking Minneapolis...
Ah well.
For what you're selling your house for in CA, you can buy a kick-ass place in the mid-west - complete with yard, studio, and three car garage.
Here's hoping for a quick sale!
I am calmer just looking at that peek into your beautiful home.
I am sure the new diggs in Cleveland will be just as lovely when I come to visit! :)
Good luck guys!
Dude, I'll roll you a fat one and we can sing the Good Times theme together....
I hope you find that Deeee-luxe apartment in the skies!!!!
Chez Gay is a sweet pad! Such a warm and happy looking home you both have. Can't wait to increase the Midwest's gay population - come on out!
YIPPEEE! *does dance of joy* Soon, very soon, you will be in my clutches again! *BWAHAHAHA!*
And just so everyone knows, OHIO isn't as bad as some people seem to think. Especially Cleveland. But you know that.
By the way, your realtor's name is HUSSEY! Ha. Ha. Ha.
I've heard Ohio is the new California. Or something like that.
When you move, I can finally stop worrying about Will hitting on my wife. ;-)
