1 month until Chicago

It's already starting to hit me. In one month I will be moving to Chicago. I will be leaving Olympia on my 9th anniversary of being here. I'm a bit sad to be leaving as I have grown to love this city quite a bit. Where I don't love this city is that there is no future here. It's time to move on and maybe grow up just a little bit.
I was taking things down off my walls yesterday and I got really sad. There was the monkey on the string that brandie gave me, and all of the little nick naks on my mantle that have been there for years. I love this little shitty apartment. I have been here for 8 years. I have a hard time imagining living anywhere else. Hopefully I will find someplace just as cool in Chicago to call my home.


BTW anybody reading this that wants to offer me a job there, feel free.

Hey-

I can't offer you an job, but I have a friend in Chicago trying to sublease a studio apartment for the remainder of her lease (the lease is up Oct. 1).

"Newly renovated studio in the heart of the Gold Coast available for rent. $35 credit check to apply.

First months rent ($850) and $900 security deposit due upon move-in.

Features: hardwood floors, granite kitchen countertops, marble bathroom, full size closet.

Laundry included in building. Not included: cable, internet, electric.

Great location! Amazing shopping and restaurants literally steps away on Rush Street and a block away on Michigan Avenue.

Only two blocks away from the redline stop at Clark and Division. Don't pass up this opportunity for affordable living in a beautiful area!"
