Since the original apartment that I was supposed to move into has roaches, I gave my notice that I would not be moving in. I am in the process of trying to get at least some money back.
I have been desperately looking for a new place to live. I have been trying to pack everything so I can move it into storage and crash with Charles until I can find somewhere to go. I am not fully packed because things keep coming up.
Yesterday EM and I reconnected after 9-10 years and she is in town looking for a place to rent since she just took a job out here. If we can swing it, she may move in with me. However, right now, I still need to talk to the property managers about renegotiating the lease and if the rent would increase, etc etc. If the rent would increase, she and I wouldn't be able to stay here and I would definitely need to put all of my things (including my yet-to-be-packed things) into storage (which I don't believe is big enough for all my stuff).
The studio I looked at yesterday is very very nice and I would like to move there, but ends up being $100/mo over budget since I later found out that they don't include any utilities at all in the rent. I had put a refundable deposit on the place yesterday before I knew that, so I need to go get my deposit back today.
At lunch, I am meeting EM at the current place so she can show her friend the apartment, then I am going after work to the studio to get my deposit check back.
I am so stressed. On one hand, I would like to stay here since I would save money and I like the place I am in, but on the other hand, I would really just like to have my own place. As it is, even if I stay here, I will probably need to keep a storage unit because half of the storage space in the house will be for someone else.
I might have a breakdown today.
