funny, one of my former classmates was bragging about that

For a while the housing market was crazy enough down here so that renting cost almost as much as buying, so I took the plunge and bought my condo a couple of years ago. No regrets, no roommates, no crabs, no sleep.

Conversely, my place's second bedroom has only been empty for a month now and I'm sort of desperate to get someone else in there. Luckily I think I have someone lined up for January.

They are very different guys -- Tombot answers emails promptly.

My all time record that didn't involve simply not answering is probably about three months. I think I've had living arrangements that have lasted longer.

cancelled this morning's apartment appointment when I saw yesterday wot a shitty block it was on (St Marks next to Franklin Ave shuttle)

ive only heard about rooms in places, sorry doc
but i do know of 2 open rooms in green point. both reasonable (like 700)but in shares
― bb, Monday, 12 May 2008 16:20 (sixteen years ago) link
HEEEEEY, Morbs. I can't picture it exactly but I don't think I'd call anything around there "shitty". Fuck, I wish I could afford to move back. How much is the apt again?
― Laurel, Monday, 12 May 2008 16:30 (sixteen years ago) link
Franklin shuttle area aint that bad
― sanskrit, Monday, 12 May 2008 16:33 (sixteen years ago) link
a thousand. It's opposite some kind of therapy center, lotsa barbed wire -- no thx. Maybe if I was 26.
― Dr Morbius, Monday, 12 May 2008 16:34 (sixteen years ago) link
whoa google maps street view is kind of racist
― sanskrit, Monday, 12 May 2008 16:36 (sixteen years ago) link
how so?
I'm seeing rent-stabilized studio on Ocean Pkwy (nr Ditmas) tnite. I have feeling I'm going to be offered it if I like it -- of course, apt that's $225 a month LESS in Midwood is taking forever to get their paperwork together. So if I say no, I'll be taking Door #2, Monty.
― Dr Morbius, Monday, 12 May 2008 16:37 (sixteen years ago) link
Oh, actually, that might be across from the methadone clinic, and if so that might actually be the worst place in that part of Crown Heights to be. I take it all back.
skrit, googlemaps streetview loves them some mac-user demographic, huh? Turns out there's like nothing photo'ed east of Flatbush.
