Dear Seattle, I Have To Move. Yipes!
A quick update for friends and a plea to fellow Seatllites:
Don’t you just hate moving? I just found out tonight that I have to find a new place to live in the next week (or two max). That means I am in aggressive hunt mode for a nice, quiet, clean 12-24 month rental situation in Seattle (first choice is Ballard but Queen Anne, Magnolia, Fremont or Westlake work very nicely as well). I ‘m a reliable tenant and a good neighbor. If any Seattle peeps know of anything exceptional (or just plain good) and available please drop me a line. I hate large complexes, long commutes and don’t want to live near a campus. A view is a huge plus as well. Ha, ha! Fussy much? 
It’s a bit of a sad situation because the the upstairs resident and property owner’s health has taken a turn for the worse and he needs my separate unit/ half of the house for his live in health care provider. Poor guy. Also sad though because this is a truly beautiful location with view that regularly brings me to my knees, full of gratitude and appreciation for the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Oh well, those of you that visited knew it was just too good to last, right?
This ends my personal, non library related post. Sorry ’bout that. I try to keep ‘em to a minimum, but you never know where that helping hand might come from. Thanks! Back to your regularly scheduled libraryman.com….
Want my apartment? It’s in a big complex, but it’s brand-spankin’ new, and has a beautiful downtown/Seattle Center view from the amazing rooftop deck. It *might* hold all your pez. And you could walk to work.
I think Kris has a good idea, libraryman. Walking to work is a good thing. And Kris’ neighborhood is lovely too. And, and, you know what? I wouldn’t be your neighbor until “next summer” when my box of air turns into a real place to live, but after that, you’d likely have to hide your guitar hero for fear that I might have opportunity enough to rockstar you under the table. (Good luck finding a place!)
Off topic…SLA is in Seattle in June and I’m coming! We should get together for coffee (or pez)! I may be there all week (with s.o.) who has never been to that region. I’ve been to Seattle twice and love it!
