Sunrise: August 28

A strong thunderstorm tore through last night and left us with an overcast sky. It’s a dismal, muggy morning with fallen branches littering roads and lawns. A van parked under a tree down the street from my apartment had its roof rack severely bent by a fallen limb. I felt bad for them, but it could have been a lot worse.

August 26, 2009, 2:36 pm View CommentsAt the end of July, the morning after my friend Krafty’s bachelor party, I decided to move out of my Mt. Vernon studio apartment. Six days later, I signed a lease on my new Hampden apartment.
Unfortunately, it’s almost September and I haven’t found someone to take over my old lease. I have five days to get everything transferred before I need to pay rent on an empty apartment.
I’ve shown it to five people so far, and a sixth is coming tonight.
I’m getting really nervous and stressed over this. I’m not sure I can afford two rents for another month. Still, I love my new place and most everything about it, but the inability to shed this old place is starting to keep me up at night.
I just re-posted my Craigslist ad. Surely someone needs to move into a place September 1st. Right?
