i have finalized natalie and my moving date to be 15 may 2003. i had originally told my landlord that we would be staying until the first week of june, but i decided that i wanted out of the house as soon as possible (mainly due to the realtors tormenting me, but also because i wanted to stop looking at places to live). my landlord agreed that we should be rewarded for all the realtor hassles. i can use the money saved from rent to help pay for the brake job on the subaru :).
its sad to move out for a place that i have lived for so long, but time marches on. it is only a place after all.
aside: i have noticed that i use a lot of parenthetical phrases while writing. hmm. i should try to minimize that.
