If Looking For an Apartment is Anything Like Creating a Gift Registry...

Over the past week Andy and I have been looking for an apartment to move into. We are trying to find something for July and found out we are way ahead of the ball game. Most realitors almost seem annoyed that we are looking so early but I like being ahead of schedule.

We looked at two apartments, one across the street from the other. The one I liked was very spacious with lots of closet space. The drawback, a tiny kitchen. The apartment he liked again was spacious with a slightly bigger kitchen. The closet space was limited and every closet seemed to have a door on both ends.. unpractical. The wood work looked chipped and the bathtub was scratched. The whole apartment looked like it hadn't been updated since the 70's and to me looked run down. To him on the other hand, since it had a slightly bigger kitchen, it was perfect.

To resolve this problem we threw both applications in the garbage and decided that if we couldn't decide then we weren't going to move into either and keep looking.  On Sunday we have another one to look at, hopefully it goes much better.

I do have faith for our gift registry though. We have been able to pick things out together and actually agree on them. The only thing we haven't agreed on was a comforter for the bed. I think I talked him into the one I liked though. :)
