We're moving.
finally. After what has seemed liked four million years of apartment searching, we have finally found a great little unit in the wonderfully gritty and glorious streets of Newtown. Or at least I hope so. Truth be told, after viewing the unit for a full five minutes I really can't recall what it looks like. I just remember 'balcony and city views' in the description. I was sold.
As I've mentioned here a few times, the apartment searching process is pretty soul destroying and by the end of it you question your own judgement. "Do I really care if the apartment is next to a methadone clinic?" you might ask yourself or "maybe a refrigerator in the living room is kinda of quirky?" So honestly I have no idea if we're moving into an urban oasis or a crack den, but you know what? I don't care. If it means that at least for the foreseeable future I can enjoy my own space and avoid the god awful cattle call of the real estate world, I'm happy.
