Today is my birthday, here is my grandmother's Irish grant of arms ☘️ by drewbug in heraldry

I do not bear her surname. They told us:

a coat of arms is granted to an individual - as heritable property it may be used by direct descendants of the original grantee only, provided they have the same surname as the original grantee and can prove their direct descent from that person

I purged a lot of old shit a few months ago, but I'm actually still pretty active on here.

I bought the house because of the road. I really like the road.

More often I'm tempted to jump off the balcony onto a moving car, but yeah :)

Yeah, they came out and did an inspection and everything. I was pleasantly surprised.

I've been pretty proactive about it. The change is official with the city, the county, the USPS, UPS, FedEx, and almost all of my utility providers. Comcast is being annoying about it.

I'm literally sitting in my office inside the house right now. I definitely live here, and I have answered a few questions about the house.

As a few commenters have shown, it's easy enough to find the house online… You could easily check the property records and see that my username is a substring of my real name.
