you can(?) go home again
Yup, I guess it's official. I managed to avoid the place for nine years, but I'm moving back to NYC. WEIRD. But I've accepted a gig stage managing for a little theater in Brooklyn (Company! ♥ ♥ ♥), so now I guess it's a done deal. Except I still need a day job of some kind that actually pays the rent, and also, y'know, a place to live that is not my parents' couch. (Also, holy fucking shit car insurance is WAY more expensive in NY state than in Virginia. That was a bit of a low blow, universe.)
SO. Internets, once again I turn to you in supplication. Does anyone know anyone who's looking for a roommate in New York City? Girls, guys, genderqueer, makes no difference to me. Any borough is fine as long as it's in easy walking distance to the subway. Financial limitations of my profession means I need something under $850/mo, preferably more like $700/mo if humanly possible. I've responded to a number of craigslist ads and gotten ZERO response back from anyone, which is bizarre and annoying -- maybe that's a New York thing, because when I went through this process in DC, I always at least got a response (even if it was just a "sorry, room's no longer available" e-mail). But yes. I'm clean, responsible, and very easygoing to live with. And I always pay bills on time, rent and otherwise. Looking to move in by Oct 1, earlier is also good (I start rehearsals Sept 15, so I'll definitely be ready to move by then), later possible for the right place. Also, and this is a huge dealbreaker, I am allergic to cats, and judging by craigslist, like 85% of New Yorkers seem to own a cat. Alas. But, yeah. Anyone know anyone?
