well…we got our first choice of apartments. they called and left a message on my machine, then called adr who left a message on my machine. i still want to take a look at the place that called us back tonight – it’s cheaper, and who knows, it might be super big and nice. and i need my parents to be home before signing anything and all that stuff.
work changed the music genre again – now it’s “modern rock”…when i was eating dinner before my shift, evanescence came on… then papa roach…later heard some metallica, olp, i think tool, evanescence again…soundgarden…yeah. i can deal with that.
the lacuna coil show on the 17th is 15$. someone go with me.
gaaaah so happy we went and looked at the apartment today, cuz it’s now our first choice. it was huge. the big bedroom is bigger than my room now, with a normal closet and a walk in closet. the smaller room is still decently sized, maybe the size of my room now but i think it’s a bit smaller, with a normal closet. bathroom is bathroom, kitchen was pretty big, big eating area, adr said lots of cupboards and counter space, fridge, dishwasher, air conditioning. the living room was huge, and sliding doors onto a balcony. and it’s cheaper than our previous 1st choice.
the only problem that may come up is that there are people in there right now, in the process of moving out – but they’re building a house and i guess there are problems so they don’t have a moveout date. the landlord said they’ll be out by the end of may at the latest, but that doesn’t give him enough time to get in there to paint, replace the carpets, anything else he has to do so that we could move in by june 1st. we said it didn’t matter, that if its the first, that’s fine, if it’s the 15th, thats fine, if it’s the end of june that’s fine. it’s not like we’re in an apt now and the lease is running out so we have to find a place right away. he said he’d call next week with more info. it’s 490$ a month, and includes water. the woman who lives there now was there, and she said the gas and electric weren’t too bad – but they were also paying in an installment plan, so she wasn’t sure what the real rates were. i looked at my parents bills, and we figured out from them what our costs would be. we’d both end up paying around 377$ a month with all the bills and rent – rent, electric, gas, local phone, cable, internet…i think that was it. and basing my pay on a 15$ an hour rate once i start dealing, i still get 900$ to spend on everything else we’d need, like food, my car, etc. we told him this was our first choice, so hopefully things will work out. he said there was another interested party but they were short term renters, and he hasn’t heard back from them. so cross your fingers that we can get this one.
we went through and made a list of stuff we have and stuff we need. the biggest thing we need is a kitchen table set. minor stuff includes bar supplies (lol), toaster, random other things. so i’m gonna look in the classifieds and stuff for a table, check salvation army etc. getting excited now. haha the guy asked us if we were partiers, we’re like no lol. i work nights, when can i throw a party? on a tuesday night? right.
gotta find something for dinner now, and get ready for work.
