Emily (7:18 pm) I’m on my way to look at an apartment.
Ryan (7:30 pm) Oooo… Crackheads won?
Emily (7:50 pm) Sadly, yes. And my hatred for them grows stronger every day.
Ryan (7:52 pm) No good. Better move before you murder people and go to jail.
Emily (8:20 pm) Ooooooh… Apartment was super cute! Cross your fingers and/or sacrifice another goat for me. Jail would cramp my style.
Ryan (8:20 pm) For real. Where is it at?
Emily (8:21 pm) Wallingford on 45th. Near Dick’s.
Ryan (8:28 pm) Nice.
Emily (8:30 pm) There was another guy filling out an application when I got there. I wrote super fast and then ran to turn mine in first. Literally ran.
Ryan (8:30 pm) Hahahahahahahaha
Emily (8:31 pm) One of my prouder moments.
Ryan (8:31 pm) Sounds like what I did with mine. Except when I applied I also put first and last month’s rent down. Other Guy looked like I kicked him in the balls.
Ryan (8:31 pm) I am proud of you.
Emily (8:33 pm) Thanks. I totally would have kicked him in the balls if I’d thought that would’ve helped.
Ryan (8:34 pm) I think at this point you would have fought him with a broken broom handle to the death.
Emily (8:34 pm) I would have choked him to death with my bare hands. You have to be ruthless in this apartment hunting world.
Ryan (8:35 pm) This is true. It’s fucking thunderdome out there.
Emily (8:36 pm) The girl who was showing the apartment lives next door. She seemed to like me. So hopefully that will help…
Ryan (8:36 pm) I agree. Bring cookies/doughnuts/muffins to sway her vote.
Emily (8:37 pm) You are so smart. I don’t know why I didn’t show up with a 3 tiered chocolate cake. Next time I will be prepared…
Ryan (8:39 pm) Yes. If cold outside, bring a nice stew.
Emily (8:41 pm) I don’t cook. But man, I make a mean chocolate cinnamon birthday cake.
Ryan (8:41 pm) It might as well be their birthday when you show up. Bring streamers.
Emily (8:41 pm) Good call. What about party whistles? Those might give the wrong impression that I’m a noisy neighbor…
Ryan (8:48 pm) Just say they are rape whistles and you’re really concerned with safety.
Emily (8:51 pm) I will never again make any important decisions without consulting you first. I think your wisdom could really take me places.
Ryan (8:57 pm) I try to give sound advice.
