Just for Grins....
Jul. 17th, 2005 05:20 amSome of y'all wondered why Russell (scroll down a few posts if you don't know or remember what I'm talking about) seemed to confuse "roommate wanted" with "personal ad"
Required: one roomate. 2 twenty-something IT chicks (One who swears she's really not) seeking roommate for huge rowhouse starting in August (This is in Baltimore City, near the train station.)
Things aren't carved in stone, but the owner of this place wants to rent it to us, and we need a third person to make it possible. The house is 3 floors, with 14-ish foot celings on each floor, a full bathroom on each floor, washer and dryer, exposed brick walls, track lighting, wood flooring, lots of open space. There are 2 huge bedrooms and one smaller bedroom. The smaller one is about 8x9 feet and would be your room. Total rent is $1500 a month, your share would be $400/month plus 1/3 utilities.
You must be cat-friendly (We provide the cats), ok with bisexuality, paganism, polyamory, kinkiness (it's cool if you don't actually participate in any of that yourself, so long as you don't preach to your abhorrence of it), respectful, reasonably clean (but not a total neat-freak), and very importantly...honest and reliable
Please have decent taste in music (Otherwise, you're going to be spending a lot of time listening to David Hasselhoff on your discman)
Must be intelligent. Or, if we can't carry on a conversation with you, at least be nice to look at. (Seriously though...substance before aesthetics.... Have a few synapses firing. You don't need to know quantum physics or ancient greek...though we wouldn't mind if you did. And if you look nice, and are intelligent...bonus!)
A few other things you should be aware of...There are plans for a darkroom being set up. If a mere whiff of photographic chemicals sends you running for your gas mask, you might not be the ideal candidate. (Though we prefer that you not get *too* excited about the idea of breathing the fumes)
Also, it's ok if you're vegan or vegetarian...just know that we're not....and again with the preaching abhorence thing. And we do burn incense and candles.

(Though we prefer that you not get *too* excited about the idea of breathing the fumes)
We're looking for a roommate that we can hang out with and have fun. You don't have to be our best friend forever, but at least somewhat sociable.
Prefer non-smokers, but if you smoke outside, we can work with that too. No drugs in the house that aren't prescribed by a doctor (or at least legal to purchase in a pharmacy). Social drinking okay...no lushes.
Also, we realize that everyone has baggage and drama...as long as you can deal with yours reasonably, it's cool.
And above all, PLEASE have a sense of humor. We want to have fun, we are crazy, silly and irreverent. We want to have parties from time to time, and partake of all sorts of mayhem and frivolity. We will make the neighbors wonder. The basic thing here is...we plan to have a lot of fun, this is really going to rock, we just need the right third person to pull it all together.
Don't say we didn't warn you.
If you haven't turned pale and ran away in fear already, email Renee and Mea- ren.n.mea@gmail.com It would be nice if you were to write more than 3 lines about yourself, like what you're like, what you do for fun, how many licks does it realy take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop and what would you do for a klondike bar? we want to want you for our roommate, but we can't really make that call if we don't have anything to go on. (Safe for work, unless you work for Pat Robertson.)

Date: 2005-07-17 03:15 pm (UTC)Wish I could come across a sweet deal on a place to live like that! Nice!
I had an opportunity to move into a 3 bedroom for $575 a month with washer/dryer included. 2nd floor. However the person who was in there...is staying. Damn it all! Oh well, I'll wait till I'm making really good money, soon, and then just move into a REALLY nice place. That place was on the border of a bad area of town.
