Homeless in T-30 Days

(now just imagine my head popping out of that box)

Let me just paint you all a little picture:

Come home today to two cheery roommates, watch TV, go for a run, come home, take a shower, lay in bed and Facebook stalk.

An hour later one roommate comes in and says can you come upstairs for a chat about the lease, think to myself "huh that's weird I'm not on the lease because the landlord only allows 2 tenants,' walk upstairs, other roommate sits down, she quickly mutters that their 'best friend' from New Zealand is now moving to Melbourne, then stumbles her way through something along the lines of, 'Oh and by the way she is going to be living in your room so that means you have to move out by mid-December.'

I nod my head, politely say 'no worries,' walk directly to the liquor cabinet, grab the bottle of whiskey, walk down the stairs to my room, call Lindsay, have a small freak out, get over it, turn on Grey's Anatomy from 1999 and decide I'm not going to let it ruin my day until tomorrow.

Anyone need a non-drinking (well that could be a stretch,) non-smoking, foul-mouthed American, suffering a minor quarter life crisis living at their house in the near future?? ie: next 30 days.

Hahaha. The blog post was even better than the email. With your charming personality I am sure you will have it figured out by the end of the weekend :) Perhaps you could upgrade your recession dates to a recession based living situation? Let me know how that works out.

and p.s. Jenny is my friend who was dating Joe but now she's just my friend :) annnnyway she goes to St. Ben's and is studying in Perth this Spring.

Good luck on your search for a new place. I'm sure you will have no trouble finding one. Your post made me smile, glad you didn't let it ruin your day.

Oh wow! Well hopefully this means onto bigger and better for you...(not sure what the bigger and better part is but I'm sure you'll find it). Good luck!!

Your better off not living with them anyway. Have you looked on gumtree.com.au? lots of ads for a variety of things on there.

Into every garden at little rain must fall. After everything you have done in the past 6 months. I am thinking that finding another place to live is not an end all crisis. Annoying, a little sad, extremely inconvient, but resolvable. I have no doubt that you will find a solution just fine. Love, Auntie Jane

Ew that sucks!

But remember you can always crash in the guest bedroom for a few days if you can't find a place on time. If you can survive with the cat that is...
