this apartment hunt is going worse than i was expecting. i was kind of hoping i could get a short-term lease because i'm not sure i want to stay in DC, but the problem i'm finding is that the places willing to do a short-term lease also want to run a credit check, which is difficult for me because of my status as a freelancer for a foreign company. the last place i inquired with even wanted to do a criminal background check. wtf? it would be easier for me to get a job with the FBI than to get a friggin apartment. i'm finding places that aren't asking for all that, but they won't settle for anything less than a 12-month lease. meanwhile, pressure has suddenly become more intense for me to get out of my current place. as i was expecting, my sleazy-ass landlords have been fucking with us to get us out earlier - not running the heat and whatnot. now my kitchen faucet (right next to my bed) is broken and runs constantly and won't turn off. i told the building manager about it, and he basically was like 'tough shit.' what an asshole. and after all the help i've given him with his computer. people suck.

Hey! Yo! Check your yahoo mail...I sent you a bunch of listings you may be interested in...DC, of course
Not ready to say goodbye to you, my dearest freind
They are kinda pricey, BUT that's keeping in line with MY budget, I wasn't sure about yours...I'll try and give you a buzz later on tonight, ok?

Thanks for that Op Ivy bit...and no, I didn't hear Brett's quote, BUT I did find out that if you go to Rancid's web page, you can download the Mp3's from the show, the EXACT NIGHT and everything that we went to in DC......Once upon a time, I'll get an ipod!
