So, if you moved out, the rent would go up for the next person?
Is the building privately owned?
Yes, and yes. The rent on the apartment would go up to market rate -- at this point, that's about $300-400 more than I'm paying. At one point, the apartment below mine with the same footprint was renting for more than $500 more.
My landlady is a 80 year old woman who loves me because I send her a little note with every rent check that chit-chats about what I've been up to. When my DH moved in, the property manager would have loved to kick me out (amazingly, there's no case law on this -- it's very clear that they couldn't kick me out if I had a child, but adding a husband might break my lease which clearly says only one person can live in the place) but she clearly told him he couldn't get rid of me.
That's so sweet.
Not that it's any of my business, but I think you should stay.
I think you should stay.
We're not leaving the apartment unless we a) buy something or b) get new job(s). I love my 'hood, and this place is opening soon, so it's getting even yummier where I live.
Wow, that looks great!
We're going through a lot of restaurant changes here. Most of our variety seems to be going away, and we're pretty much ending up with Asian downtown. I like Asian, but would like other options as well.
Oh, House is formulaic is hell. But it's so GOOD in its formula!
It is, except that's where my craxy lives, or at least vacations. I don't need to start thinking every leg pain is either the harbinger of a pulmonary embolism, or trichinosis.
I guess I can give some casting news here. Nobody's watching. So of our, oh, I guess -- 15 characters? Two down. We've cast two amazing women, Emily Stone and Melanie Lynskey. More news as it happens.
Hmm. Never noticed them in anything. But I bear much trust.
13 to go!
Yay news! Get yer casting news here!
Amazing women always a good plan.
Melanie Lynskey who was in Heavenly Creatures?
Emily Stone who was in an episode of Medium?
