Weeeelll....things didn't go exactly to plan. To make a short story a lot shorter, our cats ended up being deal breakers with the guy we were going to rent from. Even though he said they'd be okay. And that we'd give him a security deposit for them. And he said, "Sure, that sounds great!" Apparently it was not so great, as we were told on a Friday the place was ours, and then Joe John Indian-Giver reneged on us the following Monday. It was news to me that aside from getting stuck in our moving boxes, and eating bugs, that cats are unfathomable engines of wanton destruction. They're like little Hitlers.
Thankfully my girlfriend (and this why I love her) kept a backup plan in this case, and saved a couple of her B choices. So that Monday we went into panic mode, and looked at a great place in Remington, and some crap shack across from the Burger King on Eastern in Fells/Canton. Guess which one we picked. On the plus side of this, we're paying less rent for tons more space. The downside is that we're not in the heart of Fells like we wanted. Whatever, this place has it's very own dive bar on the end of the block, so I'm happy. I do still have to worry about Hipsteritis though. There's not a Whole Foods near us, but we are dangerously close to Hampden. As long as I wear my old SARS face mask, I should be good.
