Today, I felt so good about the moving situation. I honestly feel like Foxchase is everything I wanted and more for an apartment. Unfortunately, when I went to ask one of my Principals at work about the location, he said, "I would be scared of the commute." Of course, the subject of money came up and me being my too-honest self said, "I can't afford to live up here." Hahaha. Why did I have to say anything? Anyway, besides that issue, he said, "I would advise you to be careful about that big commute. Maybe you should try it for a day." That's a great idea, honestly. I could drive down to Alexandria one day, take the shuttle and then the Metro then ride to work and see how it is. ...
OR I could look for another apartment. Those apartments run $1100 + electricity + gas + commuting. I wouldn't be able to save any money for the next few months but it's such a great quality of life compared to what I have now. ...BUT then there's the possibility of me trying to live in RiverPlace, which is right next to my office (no commute...) and it would be about $1285 a month which would include everything. I'm so conflicted. :( I wish I had someone else to help me with this and find the perfect place for me.
I also showed the apartment off tonight and felt awkward the whole time. She was rushing out of the apartment and was uncomfortable around Belle. More specifically, she didn't like Belle jumping on her. WELL, girlfriend, Belle jumps up. So I emailed her and said, "Maybe this isn't the best situation for you." I have three other girls looking in the next two weeks!
I'm not sure if you've ever heard of P90X but it's an intense 90-day work out regimen to get your butt in shape! Today was day 1 for me and I think my shoulders are going to fall off. Yep. Just fall right off. I learned something about myself today. I suck at push ups! The instructor on the DVD said, "Sometimes, your body can do more than you think it can. So push through it." Riiight. I was struggling! Day 1...haha.
