RENTMYROOM,OK?

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 12:21:24 -0500

Hi. I’m moving back to my parents’ house in the city because i’m transferring to Columbia.

So! My HUGE room in this cute little house in Elmhurst that my roommates and I are living in is for rent! Rent is $325 per month. Utilities aren’t included. It’s three blocks from the college and close to everything in downtown Elmhurst as well as the Metra station (and, thus, the comic book shop eeee).

There’s tons of space: I have a twin bed, dresser, full-sized couch, end table, little chest of drawers, and two desks in there and I still have a lot of floor space. It’s technically supposed to be a living room, but there are two sets of sliding doors that close it off from the rest of the house.

Our lease is up in August. I’m out of here ASAP.

Michelle and Katy are really excellent/clean/fun/bodacious. Living here is great. Too bad I’m so broke and need to make up some serious tuition differences soon YIKES.

Episode 305 of Grube Wears Headband and Fancy Outfit as Means of Distraction from Fatigue and Need for Good Hairwash.

Success of this repeated offense? Yet to be determined.

Suggested alternative approaches for maximum presentability? sleep, a shower.

Thanks, Kansas!

Eat it, Chicago sogginess. Maybe you did not know that I can dance in wet shoes/ tights.

(Downside, toes are still numb.)(Also hope that foot/leg/hip/face/arm/shoulder bruises due to front-of-crowd perseverance will not impede HOT DANCE MOVES TOMORROW!! doubtful. I will have Evan by my side (in my belly) no doubt. He is such a sweetpea.)
