Well, so far on the chicago apartment hunt I’ve checked out two places. One was badly located. The intersection given was a block and a half closer to public transportation than the actual address, and the bedrooms were tiny. Not gonna happen. <\/p>\n
Place number two is home to a swell, earnest, semi-awkward, definite achiever gay guy (reminds me so much of “Best Little Boy In the World”). A few years older than me. Not hard on the eyes. The place itself is about as long a walk to the nearest public transit as I currently have, but a longer ride. About as close to groceries (Whole foods) and a cheaper, but just as fully featured gym. Has the amenitities I want, but is lacking\/poorly configured on the space front. Would be awkward to impossible to have the dinners and game nights I have at my current place. Would involve disposing of most of my furniture. (no tears shed there). Would also involve a 3rd roommate, of the unknown variety (he lost two around the same time). So long as I can constrain my mess to my room, I think that will be a source of 0 stress.<\/p>\n
Places 3, 4, and 5 are vacant 3 BRs, much closer to the whole foods, cheaper gym, and transit than Mr. BLBITW’s coach house. I’d have to find roommates, and might not have as much luck, but, rent would be slightly cheaper, and location much more appealing. How the space would work out remains to be seen.<\/p>\n
So far no tree rats with rat mites. <\/p>\n
Stay tuned for more. =)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
