YES!!! And I'm very excited about it, if you couldn't tell.
And I've laid claim to being her official wall-painter-guy. Ain't no one getting between me and my paint roller :twisted:
I also laid claim to this. *rolls up shirt sleeves*

I like thunderstorms. Especially running in them. Nothing quite like the motivation that lightning flashes and hail can give you.

Haha, me too. As soon as it started raining I wanted to run outside, but none of the roommates are here and I didn't want to dance in the rain alone (the cops would probably arrest me).

well, we are going down to look at a "Hamilton" tomorrow and if we like it then I think we'll just submit the app tomorrow!
Well it's a real offer - I love painting. And if you get Wells in on it, he can reach all of the high places.

The Hamilton is great, it's really large. Let me know what you think of it.

I'm pretty sure they have the application on their website so you could go ahead and print it out now: carriagehillapts.com

Don't worry about the bank stuff, you don't have to fill that out. You just need to know your current landlord's contact info, how much the apt is, etc. If you've been in your apt for less than a year, then you need the previous apts info too. For work info you can just write that you're a UVA student,they don't need to see actual job info.

Sounds awesome, which apartment complex? We have six windows in the living room and we have a great show when it's lightning time - also awesome for fireworks!

The weather in the DC area today is absolutely gorgeous, and that my building hasn't yet switched from heat to AC has turned my place into a sauna. I think the Powers That Be are telling me to spend all day outside...

People wear thongs at the pool? Do you live with Europeans?

I had to buy a new computer last summer because my old one broke, but I wish I could have waited until now. But I think I would seriously consider what UVA is offering computer-wise. Simply because if it stops working while you're in law school, they give you a brand new one right away.
