So we put down cash on an apartment yesterday.
And the landlady called and said 'I was wrong when I said $1800 was as low as I could go. How's $1650 sound?'
And yesterday a ramp position with SkyWest Portland opened up.
As my lovely friend Lynette (over for the housemate's birthday party last night) said, "So this has been a very surreal week for you, huh?"

Houston, what the fuck? Over.

Wow! I've never heard of anyone /dropping/ the price like that.

You looking to take a new job?

Moving was definitely one of my options, once I said 'I can no longer afford to live like this. In fact, I haven't been able to for the past two years.'
Portland and Seattle were geographically and socially my main choices, and Portland seemed like the place I was most likely to get a job in.

I notice how you craftily didn't answer the question. How long do you have to decide?

Rather than not answering the question, I acknowledged that it wasn't a simple binary yes/no question. I probably have until Monday to decide whether I want to try to get the job in Portland.
