As everybody who reads this knows, i have had problems (to put it mildly) with my lodgings. the husbot and i finally got a place of our own, and then the good room mate finished school. he had gone away for a bit, and bad room mate took his place, creating the life havoc that drained me of my will to live last year. well, good roomie came back. i love the guy, i really do, but he gave me exactly three hours notice that he was going to be staying with us indefinitely. all we got was a phone call saying "hey guys, i'm in cheyenne! i'll be there in a couple of hours! can't wait to see you! where can i put my sleeping bag?" and that was in december. the astute among you will see that it's currently march, and dude is still sleeping on my office floor. something here just ain't working for me.
and, in a weird twist of fate, it's not working for the husbot either. i think the reason he wasn't nearly as put out by bad room mate's behavior was that it never really effected him at all. he could still play his games until the wee hours of the morning, and nobody ever kicked him out of his personal space or routine. he's easy-going at the best of times, and bad room mate wasn't bothering him, so why did action need to be taken? welp, now good dude kicks him out of his computer space at nine pm. and apparently that's the straw that breaks the camel's back. who knew? so, all of us weren't happy with life, people were crabby, things had to change. and i, being the mover and shaker of the bunch, done changed em. go me!
i started looking at craigslist for rental listings that would suit our needs- three bedrooms, two bathrooms, not in the ghetto... and the first person i called had a listing that i thought would work. 3 beds, 3 baths, 3 floors. the best part? exactly four blocks from my library. and the price was lower than our max. of course i went to go see it right after work. and immediately fell in love. it was perfect! everything i could want, and i didn't even need to pay a pet deposit. i pretty much forced the guys to look at it, and to make a long story short, we get the keys in a week and a half. you've never seen three more ecstatic people.
this could be the best thing that happened too me all year, and i'm including in that the time i went to the yarn store and found out quite by accident that they were having a 25% off sale. yup. it's that good. sooo.... who wants to help me move?
