Randomness Redefined

Well, the apartment thing is finally worked out, though not how I originally thought things would be. I will still be living with Erik and Eric (how the hell did it work out that both of my roommates would have the same first name anyhow?) but we will not be living in the original apartment complex. Things did not work out with the management of the original complex and after almost 2 moths of what i would classify as almost soap opera digest Erik and I finally decided that we had had enough of their bullshit and that we would look elsewhere for someplace to live. Basically, what happened is that we went from being the only interested party who had secured their placement with a deposit to being one of 2 interested parties who had both put down security deposits and suddenly noticing that the manager could not keep her story straight.

I was absolutely furious at this woman and I could probably rant about it for a good while but I will spare all of you that and say instead that we managed to get into the first complex that we considered. They called Erik and I at work to let us know that they had an opening in August and we had first dibs on claiming a space. We jumped at the chance and scheduled a meeting with them at 10am on Saturday.

The next day we went over and toured the place and decided that we liked this complex, as well as the staff, a whole hell of a lot better than the other complex. We signed the lease and took home the forms to fill out so they can do a credit check on all three of us (nosy SOBs dontcha think? :P) So we will be handing in those forms and then we will be set to move in on August 8th!

This place is further away from campus and cost a little bit more as it is $775 a month instead of $600 a month, but that is only $85 more a person so we can live with that. This place is is brand new and everything other than power and local phone service (does anyone still use that? ;)) is covered under the terms of the rent. Two additional pluses are that instead of SBC DSL we get a cable connection that runs into a fiber line for each building, and you can not believe the eye candy that lives in this complex (ie there are lots of attractive and hopefully single girls for me to work my charms on and yes I am a horny male in his 20s so just let me be ;)). I still need to find some furniture for my new room and figure out what to do with my new master bedroom with vaulted ceiling and included celing fan, and separate bathroom *evil laughter*. At any rate I will keep you abreast of things. And now I should probably get some of that sleep stuff that everyone claims is good for me.
