Apartment Hunting

You know, I don't think the term "apartment hunting" could be anymore correct. It is like a grand hunt and we right now have the target in sight. Not only do we have the target in sight but we have the gun up to the animal's head and now just waiting to pull the trigger.

I will say that as perfect as this apartment will be I'm growing ever more frustrated with the landlord. Almost every time that we attempt to make contact we just get her voicemail and she's horrible at calling back. I understand that the apartment that we want is a disaster because of the way the last tenants left it, but the thing is we don't mind helping to get it put back together. There is a lot of work to be done and I want to help. Truthfully it's much more worth my while to have a couple hundred bucks knocked off the first months rent so I can clean the place MY WAY. And cleaning it would be so easy because there would be no "stuff" in the way.

My only other worry is Wrigley... there is a nice acre fenced in at the apartment, however there is a large gate for a vehicle and it doesn't look like it's been shut in years. Also with it being a triplex and a "community" yard, I worry about leaving Wrigley to run unattended especially if strangers come into the yard for the other tenants. And it's not that I think he will hurt anybody strange coming in, rather I worry about somebody leaving the gate open and then our dog runs out and gets hit on the highway. The easy solution is to just set up one of those runs that you tie out between two trees.

Anyway, those are my thoughts for the day on my apartment.

On a total side note, I also want to move in ASAP so I can find my drawing tablet. I miss it so much... but it's packed away in the abyss of our storage unit. I swear there's an entire galaxy in that thing with a black hole.
