Sleep Spent

So after living at my current apartment for five months, I am making a change. The master tenant here, my roommate Jia-Lin, told me on the 6th that she’d be moving out “by the end of the month,” which turned out to be yesterday. I have been looking hard for the last week, responding to a million Craigslist ads. It took me awhile to find the right place, but I’m glad I held out. Just tonight, I made a verbal agreement to move into a place on States Street by the end of the month!

The living room has an amazing view of the Castro and Twin Peaks, it’s just been remodeled with new wood floors downstairs and new carpeting upstairs. My bedroom is large, though it doesn’t have a view. There’s heat and double-paned windows. There are 10′ceilings throughout, so I won’t be heating air I never use. There’s a massive kitchen with tons of cabinet space. The landlord, who will also be living with me, just got a bunch of furniture and a 50″ plasma TV.

So I’m stoked! It really couldn’t have worked out better. It’s $150 more than I spend right now, but it’s not much farther from a Muni stop and it’s going to be an infinitely nicer living situation.

I’ll be organizing a housewarming party once I move in and we get settled. And I’ll get some pictures up as soon as I move in.

Look out! Nick’s coming to the Castro.
