i'm here with ESA and a mutual friend named illuminous. there is possibly a fourth person coming, etan.
the main idea was to try and find a house for super cheap. she doesn't want to pay more than $300, she wants space for a piano on the main floor and she wants a porch for her cat. i need studio space, which means i'd get the basement. i tried to explain before we left that we probably wouldn't find that. i mean, these places exist. we're staying in a hundred year old house with four bedrooms and a huge basement for $750. but they're not plentiful - there's nothing currently on the market. realistically, rent would have to be around $400-450, minimum. which is still cheap, but...
i was expecting this plan would fall through and i'd get a two bedroom, and i've told them that.
we were able to find one place and we put down an application for it but it's not really what any of us want. i'd get the attic rather than the basement. it's second floor. no porch (but a backyard). we don't think they'll rent to us, anyways.
they're going home tomorrow morning. i'll keep backpacking around the area.
keep me updated. i'm glad they're medicating him though, i really wasn't liking thinking about what he must be thinking.
