Well, it's cold but maybe there's somewhere I fit, after all.
That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I just decided not to take the next actuarial exam. I'm pretty sure that's the right thing to do - studying is realy not going well, or at all, most of the time - yet I keep getting all weepy over it. God I hope that's PMS, for once.
-t, I think you probably did make the right decision. You've been dealing with a lot lately, and there's nothing wrong with figuring out how best to take care of yourself by taking some of the pressure off. How are you doing otherwise?
Also, Lilty, Western Mass. is another excellent slacker zone... ijs.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
But it does suck to slack alone. So come here, and slack with all of us!
Be prepared. Should things go my way, within a year I may be putting out feelers to see if any of you know of folks looking for a roomie. It's the goal.
ETA: And thank you guys. I obviously don't want to be anything but supportive to my friend right now, and I can't tell anyone else. I need to do my own freaking somewhere.

Last night for the first time she strrretttched out her arm so she could be hugging both of us.
That is so perfectly sweet. As is the rock-n-roll pee, in its very own kara-tastic way.

I'll keep my ears open. However, as I am now an oldster (I think I've got about 10 years on you), most of my friends aren't doing roommate things anymore but I sometimes hear of friends of friends. And I know of one apartment of 4-5 women who are often looking. (EllenS' place)
Once I approached 30, roomates weren't necessary inconviences and occasional sources of fun anymore, they were fucking flat out awful. Not even the people (I lived with my best friend and then my cousin) but just the sharing of space. I became SO intolerant of that once I hit 28-29. That might be me though.

Oh, if I had my way, I'd totally go it alone. Thing is, I don't think I could manage alone just yet, and if I were waiting until I'd saved up money for a whole deposit alone, I'd be in Maine forever!

I don't think it is you, Nora. There's something about accumulating your own stuff, and not wanting people to mess with it. The nice couch starts to represent your own piece of mind and the refuge of "home" that you've built. Sucks to come home and find a druken roomie sitting on it. Or something.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

So precious! That's wonderful Susan.
Lisah, absolutely use it! She'll be giddy with delight. We want a copy!
Lilty, I hope something works out for you. Having to move back in with the parents after you've already been all grown up and stuff is of the suck.
{{-t}} if it helps, I think you've made the right decision. It's hard to postpone dreams, though.

Make that 18, and you're me. (Okay, so I also moved in with DH around then, but it's different with a fiance/spouse.)
