Wonder if this was a male conducted study?
I bet donuts to dollars it was.
I am so crazy busy right now and I am loving it. The search for a new apartment is on! So far, we've seen 5 places and they all were not what we are looking for. One really reminded me of my old apartment in Wrigleyville so that was a definite NO. We are dead set on moving to Bucktown. I am so sick of the Lakeview/Boystown/Lincoln Park scene. In Lakeview/LP, I am sick of being hit on by 22 years olds who work at Enterprise Rent-A-Car. I am sick of drink specials that only include cheap lite beer. And in my neighborhood, I am sick of not being looked at on the street twice because homeboy don't dig the cha-cha, mmmmkay?
I've been such a Craig's List whore. I think it is the single greatest website known to man. The free section alone makes it bookmark-worthy. Actually, H and I have found it more effective just to drive the streets of Bucktown and look for "For Rent" signs. We actually have 3 appointments tonight just based on that. Maybe we'll discover some hidden gem. As long as there is laundry on-site. Mamma is too old to be goin' to some laundrymat.
Holy crap! I just found this place a few minutes ago and called the guy. It's a 3 bedroom, but we have people crashing with us all the time. He says it's huge and he should charge more, but he wants good, quality tennants. I'll show him quality! It's cheap enough that I could still afford it. Guy that owns it also owns Club Lucky and the apartment is right above it! I love that place, the Italian food is to die for. It is the exact neighborhood we want. Competition for apartments in that area right now is fierce. But so are the boots I am wearing today. I got this in the bag.
I watched Elizabethtown last night and I really loved it. It was such a sweet slice of life movie and I was totally impressed with Orlando Bloom. His American accent was spot on. I have never seen a movie that he was in, (because I don't dig movies like these) but I am hooked. I love them pretty boys! When the kid threw the turkey onto the floor for the dogs, I about pissed myself.
Weekend review? Fun, fun, fun Friday (except for the huge scar on my finger from Cocktail's cigarette). Took all sorts of pictures but I am way too lazy to upload them right now, so I guess I'll keep them to myself, thank you very much. I got Pearl Jam tickets on Saturday morning! YAY! I haven't seen them since 1995. That was the first and last time I ever did nitrous! Went to Indiana for sista's birthday Saturday night. Disastrous. Too disastrous to even recount. Then Sunday was our first hardcore day of apartment hunting. And here we are.
It's 10:20. Time to pop a Zantrex and eat some Special K!
