Housing issues

I'm still here!!
Last time I wrote I mentioned that I found a place to live and things were starting to look good. Well, on Tuesday my landlord decided that she wasn't ready to have a roommate! WTF? shouldn't you decide that BEFORE getting one?? Anyways, I was pretty pissed but I remained calm and civilized about it. We talked about my options and she referred me to a friend of hers that was renting a room too. This room is located in the same city, Kirkland, but a little further away. The place is nice, it has a private bathroom too and they have a funny dog. I liked it but I was not totally convinced about the value I was getting for my money, since rent was going to be the same as in the other place but without the convenience of the location. I started looking for a place to live...again. Now, let me tell you that doing this SUCKS because of all the things you have to consider, all the people you have to meet and go through interviews (I think it's worse than interviewing for a job). Now after looking at a couple of places I've decided to take the place with that lady but I got her to lower the rent and now I feel like I'll be getting what I'm paying for.

Yesterday I attended a photographers drinking meeting at a bar in downtown Ballard. It was really fun!! I got there and of course I didn't know anybody but it was pretty easy to chat with strangers and talk about cameras, photos and places to visit in Seattle. This was totally out of my comfort zone but I think I did pretty good. It kinda reminded me about the movie "I love you man", should I call one of the guys and ask them on a "man date"?

My search for a job continues, I went to a few hotels on Wednesday to drop off my resume. Next week I'll be attending a job fair and more networking events. Hopefully something will happen soon.

Now I have to pack, again.
