So. A guy tried to break into our apartment last Sunday. Jim caught him red-handed and called the cops, but it's become the final straw, so to speak, and we're apartment-hunting now.
In case I haven't told you the story,
( here's what happened. )
We've kinda narrowed in on one place and we'll probably be signing a new lease sometime next week. I'm glad to be moving - I've wanted to for a while. But there are two downsides. The first is that this new place is pretty much gonna max out our monthly income. We were gonna wait to move until I found a full-time job, but that hasn't happened yet, and we're at the point where moving is no longer optional. So we're gonna be very tight on the purse-strings until I can find work. Sucky thing number two is that I haven't yet found a place that will accept exotic pets, which means I still can't have my corn snake actually living with me, dammit. Dammit, dammit, dammit. D:
I was going somewhere with this, I promise.
ETA: Oh, right!( The rest of the story. )
tl;dr - WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT LEAVING OUR APARTMENT UNOCCUPIED. But we do. Hence, moving.
