it’s a little bit more than nothing
18 Aug
i hate fuzzy ambiguity.
well, to some extent it is necessary, but too much of it is a terrible thing.
i feel so very overwhelmed by my current housing situation. suddenly, and without much warning, i am forced to find a new option.
i find myself scouring facebook marketplace and craigslist trying to find a person or apartment that seems to fit me–but none does.
sure there are apartments that seem nice, and people that seem nice, but i’m having a lot of trouble finding a person whose goals and wants are closely aligned with my own. even more difficult is finding a person who has those things, and also wants to live in the same area that i do.
i don’t think that i’m being excessive or out of line, though. i’m just looking for something different that they are.
i suppose i want to live near downtown. i don’t need to live there. i don’t need to be able to walk to work, but i would like to be near it. i don’t want to drive 30 minutes to work each day.
i want to feel safe. i want to be able to walk to my car by myself at night.
i want a decent looking place. i want a slightly updated kitchen, because i know that if my kitchen is stuffed full of old dirty appliance, i’ll avoid it like the plague. and then i’ll find myself shoving ranch doritos and cheese sauce into my mouth on my bed while watching tbs re-runs. not good for anyone, really.
i want a decent sized bathroom. i like being able to turn around in there. i’m not sure why. i also would like my shower to be clean. i want to get clean in a clean space.
i’d like it to be in an area that is close to things. perhaps a grocery store. a restaurant. a local pub. whatever. i just don’t want to be in the middle of nowhere.
okay. that’s all that is really necessary. everything else is push and pull to get the right price/location/person.
is this too much?
is this too boring? yes. it is. here are some pictures from mexico to de-borify this post. enjoy.

Don’t say a word
Just hold me close.
