Guilt, anxiety, stress.....
Jan. 16th, 2005 08:21 amSo I went to visit two potential housing situations yesterday, and I've got two to visit today. I'm really worried that I didn't put enough effort into the whole finding housing project at the right time--I have been really busy with everything else regarding the move and I may have let it slide too much. Not having internet access at home sucks and I wish I'd thought ahead about all the use I'd have to make of it before I turned it off, lousy as the service had been. Yesterday, the co-renter at one of the places wasn't there to meet me. She didn't have a doorbell, so I stood there and knocked and yelled for 20 minutes, with no response. The next place I visited I wouldn't mind living. It was a nice group home near Crystal City, very clean, inhabited by professionals aged 24-28. Alas, I suspect they think I'm a little too young and a little too politically crunchy--I didn't say anything about my politics but my job speaks for itself. I feel so young when I say that I'm 22, a mere babe in the woods at this being out of college thing.
If I can't find housing on this trip, suffice it to say, I'll have a lot of problems: where to move my stuff too, where to live, nowhere to forward my mail, nowhere to put as my home on employment forms, etc. It would extend the chaos and the number of things needing to be coordinated into the future, and I've been doing almost nothing but trrying to organize this move since Christmas. Wish me luck today.
