The Going Gets Tough from the Getgo
So, it's basically official -- I will be moving.
I spent fucking weeks looking for a place, but I realized that just about everything is Denver is either a little too run-down or about $150/month more than I want to spend. I eventually found a decent remodeled seventh-floor apartment available March 4th in a good central location and isn't going to break my bank account ... but check this -- the current tenant extended the lease another fucking month! Yeah, that's about the state of everything in my life right now.
Possible solutions:1) Somehow talk my roommate and his girlfriend into either getting an extra month on her current lease (unlikely), or talk them into storing her shit so the three of us live here for the next month (also unlikely).
2) Rent an inferior third-floor unit for the same price and hopefully talk the management into letting me move upstairs after a month.
3) Rent an inferior third-floor apartment and settle for mediocrity.
4) Just fucking cave in and move back to the (ugh...) suburbs.
Obviously not thrilled with any of these options. Not entirely sure what I want to do now, but I'm pretty sure it's going to make my life a lot more complicated for the next few months.
And I don't even want to tell you about my placeholder trip.
Yeah, let's not get that awkward today.
