all's well that ends well

After forgoing the one morning of the week I can sleep in until 9:30 to petition the housing office, my roommates and I have finally secured a two bedroom apartment for all of us right across the street from campus.  After a computer system glitch that split our group up yesterday, we were as cheerful as negotiators during the Cuban Missile Crisis.  Thankfully now I'm not stuck in a room with a self-described nymphomaniac satanist.  For the record, my roommate and her fellow architecture major friends confirmed that this would-be roommate did come across as crazy and irritated everyone in her studio.

The only mildly disappointing aspect of my new housing arrangement is that my dad probably won't be able to visit me next year in the apartment as most of the apartment units are above ground and accessible by outdoor staircase.  That, or I better start doing weight training on my arms if I'm going to pull his wheelchair up the steps.

Thanks! Actually, a new crisis has popped up - if the housing office doesn't recognize that I've confirmed my contract by 9 AM tomorrow, they're giving away my spot. And I have a mandatory class at that time, so it looks like I'll have to make a creative break...
