Yeah, I’m not built for apartment dwelling. Especially when my room-mates turn out to be up-all-night party types, instead of the quiet, laid-back types they presented themselves as. Oh, and the fact that the guy who lived in the apartment before me was a slob. And the fact that the rent, which was supposed to be all-inclusive… wasn’t. (Hello, blown budget!) Two weeks of blown sleep and constant irritations makes Dixie a very unhappy fellow.
Luckily, a friend of the family needs a house looked after (wow, wish I would have found out about this BEFORE the apartment…) that suits me to the ground. It’s actually the same distance from this house to the university as it was from my house to my high school… but I didn’t have to get on the Interstate to get to my high school…
Well, hopefully the new pad will mean better posting… or at least more.

I have some gripes about houses (mainly that entropy always wins, and it is my ass that has to fend it off), but it sure as hell beats living in a thrown-together hive.
Here is to hoping the new place is an improvement!

Good luck on the new digs! Thankfully my roomie is a cool dude, relatively clean, and 7 years older than me
