and, change.

it feels immediately as if this is happening much sooner than would be expected... but it is.

i found a newer, better, cheaper, nicer place to live. and it's literally two blocks away from where i live now.

weird, weird fortune. well, actually, it's probably not exactly newer, but it certainly is better on many accounts. nicer, cleaner, shinier, quieter, oh... and did i mention the most important part? cheaper.

i'll be saving almost $200 a month and living over at fell and gough... closer to the center of hayes valley and so much closer to blue bottle that i don't think kirby is going to break up with me anytime soon (if it's even possible to live any closer to blue bottle, i'd probably have to buy a very, very expensive condo). whew! i keep shaking my head every time i think about the fact that i get to stay in the little yuppie centerpiece of san francisco that could. i do love it here.

the apartment is creepily the same as my current place, just so much better (and possibly slightly bigger). almost the exact same layout with recently refinished wood floors, a much cleaner/nicer kitchen with better counter space, a new refrigerator (what's THAT like?), and lovely, pretty, enormous windows. the building is also fantastic, it's beautifully painted on the outside (what's THAT like?) and the pretty gated doors lead to a lovely entryway with tile floors and gorgeous ceilings.

of course, to counteract the relief of actually finding a place to live and finding the best place possible to live, my body is apparently fighting something mildly tiring (and annoying) and i've got more to do at work than is humanly possible. including magically re-learning flash tomorrow so that we can send our ads to sfgate. i'm glad that the last thing i did with flash about 6 years ago (when it was still part of the macromedia mx or dx or nm or px suite -- whatever) was bouncing a ball up and down and fading two different images. YAY.

time to get ready to get ready for bed early.
