[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
The apartment we're moving out of -- about 600 square feet, 1.5br/1ba, crappiest floors EVAR (very old and nasty tile that's probably laced with asbestoes) and zero amenities -- will be going for $1800 after we're gone, and it's still a pretty fantastic deal for the neighborhood.
[eta: This is more typical.]
I think quality of life is becoming an issue for us.
Amen sister.
There is a lot to enjoy, but we don't do any of them. And I can't blame having Em on that entirely - we didn't do much of anything before.
7 years ago I had a 2-bedroom house (w/ big eatin kitchen and a back yard) for $500 a month two blocks away from the house I own now. That w
$1200 will get you this, approximately,
in my neighborhood now.
I miss what I paid in MSP for my HUGE two-bedroom, but I love living in San Francisco. And I do have a cute apartment.
So which do I wear? Plain green, or white with a Brooklyn Law School logo?
Whichever one is warmer.

Stephen and I got used to doing stuff for free, or thereabouts, when we were in NY (so very young and so very broke), but you can only go to Central Park so many times. We used to go to the Metropolitan Museum and pay the student rate, or just a dollar sometimes, since admission is "suggested". It's hard to live in a wonderful city with fantastic stuff to do and not be able to afford to do it.
Aimee should move to Philly and leave near me when I move back to PA!
The highest rent I have ever paid was the trailer in Arizona. But that's because I didn't have a roommate. $350/mo. 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, front porch, storage room, wash house, 2 swamp coolers, and all the scorpions you could eat.
We want to go check Portland out and see if it's a possibility
A friend of mine lives there and he absolutely loves it, although he says it is a bit gray in the winter.

If former company hadn't been so stingy about not paying for moving expenses, I'd be living there RIGHT NOW.
And we don't even live in LA proper. We want to go check Portland out and see if it's a possibility.
DUDE! DUDE!
Portland OREGON, Portland??????
Please! Yes! Move to PDX! It rules!
