the attic really didn't make sense.

if i was a painter...

but, for what i do, i need a basement. really. like, it pretty much *must* be a basement, or an apartment. even an upper duplex is pretty much pointless.

i was thinking "it's clear things won't get better here. if i move there month to month, maybe things will get better.".

but, it's not rational.

it's plywood flooring. i don't even know if it's sound. i can't start moving all kinds of stuff in there. and, i don't expect it to keep the noise in well, either.

i went back and saw the smaller unit, and it was both smoky and too small.

i need to let it go...
