Faaaannnnntastic.

Kris and I found an apartment today.

There is irony in the fact that the company bought the building and started making them into condos when they realized the market was starting to go soft so decided to rent them out instead. We'll both be paying less at the new place, which is nice. Everything is new, there is a shower and a shower/soaking tub. New appliances, amazing granite countertops and beautiful hardwoods. We have our own deck as well as parking included in rent.

All of this, just a block off of Broadway. (At the intersection of Harvard and Harrison - technically #5 401 Harvard.)

I'll likely be moving the first weekend in January. Anyone who comes over in the last two weeks in December, be prepared to help me pack a box or two.

Does anyone want/need a computer desk? I'm probably going to be getting rid of mine, along with the old TV and old computer monitor I have. I'd rather they go to a good home than just get hauled away as junk.

It is nice when it feel like life starts to string together.

Sounds pretty sweet!

[orcaarrow.livejournal.com]

Congratulations. I hope that you both love it.

[stacyx.livejournal.com]

Yay!!

[moesmith88.livejournal.com]

Sweet...that's a really good area and not just because I live 4 blocks away, either ;-)

Congrats and all that - it sounds like a really nice place - good luck :)

[lithera.livejournal.com]

Heh. You'll have to come over for dinner or something.

[trilliumgrl.livejournal.com]

Congrats!

Does this mean no more parties a our place?

[sharkcowsheep.livejournal.com]

Aw man, I'm envious. That sounds like some sweet digs there. And not too far away from your current joint.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

If you don't want them there, they don't have to be there. Never did.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

Nah. Like seven blocks.

[seanb.livejournal.com]

Congrats. Is parking included? My grandmother used to live right by there, and I remember parking being much more interesting around that part of cap hill than it is near your current place.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

Parking is included. One spot but it is a big one. We'll block each other in but I don't imagine that'll be a huge issue.

[ladymeag.livejournal.com]

That's TWO BLOCKS from my place. :)

[lithera.livejournal.com]

I figured it was close. *grins*

[ladymeag.livejournal.com]

I guess that means I'm totally on the hook for helping you move. (Which I'm fine with doing, by the way.)

[lithera.livejournal.com]

*laughs* I'm hiring movers but you can help me pack, if you want. Or to unpack or move furniture around and such.

[ladymeag.livejournal.com]

Whatever you need. I don't usually hire movers, so it didn't even occur to me! :)

[lithera.livejournal.com]

I've officially gotten to the point where it takes too long not to do it. And there is some of this that I wouldn't ask people to try to move. I'll have enough boxes that'll need filling.

[torquemada.livejournal.com]

Well done! I can't wait to see it. And I can probably help pack, since I'll be there every day these next two weekends, at least for a little while.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

That is true. Quite so. I should start the box hunt.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

Yep. Saw those. Thanks!

[torquemada.livejournal.com]

Also I may be interested in the TV. I'll take a look at it when I'm there next. I can exchange currency for it, even.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

The TV is super old. I'd rather it go to a good home and all but... Super old. Still works, though.

[torquemada.livejournal.com]

It would be replacing one that's about 20 years old with a broken set of push buttons.

Actually, IIRC, it may be almost the same exact model as the one I want to ditch. But I'll look at it and see, if somebody doesn't beat me to it.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

*laughs* It would be newer than that. It only has coax in and outs, though I do have a converter for it. Or I did, at least. I think it is still there with the TV. I still have the remote, too! You'd be welcome to it.
