Apartment news:  I put a deposit down today.  I know I know, that's a little pre-mature.  But it's only $200 and $150 is refundable if I change my mind with in 72 hours.  I've certainly wasted $50 worse ways before.  And the other $150 can be applied to my move-in expense/rent if I do decide to live there.  By Tuesday, I should have an offer letter in my hands and be able to say, okay, I can afford this.  Yes, it's more expensive than Atlanta, but I knew that.  But my nice fat pay check should help out with that aspect.  The best part is that the apartment is ready for me to move into tomorrow if I wanted to, so I can get in there and get settled a little bit before I start working (tentatively July 26).  Assuming everything falls into place the next 2 or 3 days, here's how it will shake out:  I'll be living in the Ambassador floor plan at The Jefferson at Fair Oaks.  And you can't beat the convenience to where I will (theoretically) be working.  Oh, and it has a big, deep bath tub.  ;)
