today is a big day. HUGE.

Okay, so maybe it's not as big a day as Saturday will be, but still. HUGE.

WE ARE FINALLY LOOKING AT AN APARTMENT.
Yes.
Let me say that again: We are FINALLY looking at an apartment!

I am ten different kinds of ecstatic. Obviously websites can lie and pictures can be decieving but if it's even half as good as it looks I'll probably kiss the landlord on the spot. The price is perfect, the location is great (halfway between work and where A will be during school, and only 20 minutes from home), the policies are pretty lenient. Googling the management company brings up only good things, which is a big difference from the last place we looked at.

It's safe to say that our hopes are maybe a tid bit higher than they ought to be, but hey. This whole adulthood thing takes practice. But seriously, I'm currently accepting any and all advice from adults and recently-become adults, so pass that shiz on - please and thank you.
