Surprise! We are going to be living on the mainland. Wil started a new job this morning. I dropped him off at work, but I didn’t pack him a lunch or anything. We are staying in a hotel right now. Along with Pru. I’m going back home tomorrow and Wil will, hopefully, be staying with a friend for a couple of days until I come back next weekend. We are looking for a place to live and we need one now. However, it’s not going well. 95% of all places listed don’t accept pets. We have a small geographical area we are looking in, because we want to keep the commute time, via public transportation, down. And we need a two bedroom at least.

There is a lot to be said for saving money. We saw a place 4 blocks from the new job, it met the deal breaker criteria I have – my own parking spot. Cats are ok. It has been newly refurbished so while the building itself is a bit sad, the apartment is nice with hardwood floors and new appliances. It’s only $175 more dollars than I pay now, not taking conversion into account, simply by numbers. However, it’s so dinky. SO SO SO SO dinky. Maybe somewhere around 600 square feet? 650? I could not fit half my stuff in it. I don’t know where we would put litter boxes. So cute, but so small. I just don’t know if we could fit there. You could not even fit a couch in the living room.

Plus, in the hallway, you could smell someone’s dinner cooking, and it smelled like they were cooking ASS.

We aren’t ruling it out, yet. It’s the most affordable, convenient, cat friendly place we’ve found. It’s available now. But we’ve only been looking one day.
