[apartment] Woo!

Woo! I go to pay money and sign a lease tomorrow after work, for a three bedroom place in Woburn, not far from Woburn Center. Space for a roommate _and_ a guest room/office! And two parking spots! *glee*
No laundry in building, but there isn't in my current place, either. (do need to figure out where the nearest one is, though)
And... and! It's an easy walk to a bus which goes to the Wellington stop on the Orange line, and which appears to run similar hours to the subway. And there appears to be no difficulty with parking on the street for guests.
It's all carpeted, but that's alright. I prefer wood, sure, but it's not high on my priority list. And they're going to clean the carpets before I move in, which is good as it smells a bit strongly of animals.
Apartment!
(incidentally, this is why I was so confused by the last place's delays. I had no real reason to expect a delay on a decision!)

I looked at this place Sunday while hanging out with

I wonder what your kitty will think of the scents. For verily, there will be cleaning, and yet the cat's sensitive nose will still detect critter-smells.

Getting the carpet replaced was an option, but one that would increase the monthly rent to higher than I can afford.

Second, hmm... I might have to do a sniff test first. I do fine with your cat and
Third, yay! :)

Date: 2005-05-26 03:42 pm (UTC)I will possibly also have people visiting me, but that also ought to be fine.
Either day better? Saturday or Sunday? I'm possibly going to be coming from Andover, but that's fine.
