things in richmond

well back home...so odd..well a little odd i think being back even though i was only gone for like 3 days..i dont know..just feeling different about being here..maybe cas i dont want to be here anymore .. it was really hard leaving and having to come back home :( wanted to just call it quits with everything and stay up there with them..but couldnt..and so a good portion of yesterday was spent trying not to cry..not that it went well cas did cry some ..but well it will have to do for now since its not like i can just pick up and leave tomorrow..so im sure it will take a couple days to get things settled back into the usual routine..the weekend was actually very productive..richmond is an interesting area and im glad i got to go and help look for places...there are some really nice apartments up there and what not..and some decent sells too..and it was pretty cool that quite a few places have openings already for oct..and we looked at like 8 different places..and my friend explained the downtown set up..and the warehouse apartments did sound pretty cool but i would have spazzed out living downtown.. really would have...and so we both agreed it was better and safer to stay away from those..and we looked outside of richmond a little and did have a really nice place picked out..but then i just randomly picked up an apartment finder from some place we were at and started looking through it..and i would find places that looked interesting and then give yvonne the address and she would tell me if it was a safe area or not, and there was only one place that we drove through that made me really have no intention of even getting out of the car..super uncomfortable feelings..and it was just yeah keep going no need to stop type deal...but yvonne so had a list ready lol..which i was glad for cas i had no idea where we would be starting at..and so we went back and forth and i saw a lot more of the city and different areas...and it was one of the places that i found in the apartment place that we decided on...we managed to get to right before they closed and the lady that showed us around really was very nice..and they are townhouses and it had bunches of space and its nice...and its in richmond but not the downtown part..the bed rooms are nice sizes also cas there were a couple places where it was like a master bedroom and then the smaller bedrooms and we both have way to much stuff to even start the who gets the bigger bedroom ordeal...so we worked hard to find a place that had close to the same size bedrooms...but i did like it a lot..and i like the townhouse set up..the biggest problem though will be getting the pet deposit for dusti..they are all so expensive and she has to come ..so that is going to take some extra work..but now its like i know where im going and that makes it seem a lot more real and that its going to happen...slightly scary because now all the other little worries creep in and it makes me a bit nervous..but im trying to stay calm since i know im still looking at maybe two months at home..but soon i actually have to start looking for a job..and knowing the place we are planning on moving into too..if it all works out of course gives me some focus at least..so that i kinda know what im looking at money wise and things..
