Movin' on out, movin' on up!

The last few weeks I've taken interest in an incredible apartment located on the corner of Granville and Broadway. The place is massive! Two bedrooms, two stories, two bathrooms, two balconies, safe location, on the third floor, for 1550 a month. One of my bestest friends Jon will be cohabiting with me. We just finished a viewing and applying earlier today, with high hopes of success.

The lady who we went about the viewing with seemed to take a liking to us, and told us we were first on the list. She even went as far as sarcastically gesturing that we have stiff competition with the other group that applied to her on the spot. They were a group of 3 for a 2 bedroom apartment, and some of them unemployed. No go for them! Jon and I would have a combined household income of well over 70000 dollars, as well as great references.

In all likely-hood, we will get the place, and if we do, we will have the ultimate geek hovel. Together we have two big screen 1080p high definition TVs, two non-high definition, every video game system, and 4 computers.

Because the apartment was previously inhabited by some friends of mine who are leaving the country, we are inheriting a bunch of brand new furniture, and even a full set of pots and pans, cups, and various other bonuses.

Deal is just too good.

I should hear back from the landlords tomorrow concerning our application.

Now, my biggest problem is my current habitation. When I moved in with Brian we agreed we'd do a "trial" living situation, then decide 3-4 months down the road whether or not we're well suited as roommates. While his intentions and concerns are purely well intended, the age gape and different lifestyles are very apparent. At the end of last month we had a small talk, which came to the conclusion that at the beginning of August we would decide what would happen for the month of September; which would be deciding whether or not I should be moving out or not. I don't think he'll take any offense to the decision I've made, but I think he'll be surprised that I'll be the one making it, and not him.

My largest concern is the small chance that I do not succeed in obtaining the new apartment. In which case it'll be really hard to find and move by September. This is the reason I need to hear back from the Landlords of the new apartment by tomorrow, so that I can talk to Brian tomorrow night about it.

I hope everything goes well!
