To nessa:
I love you very much. Thank you! *hugs*
btw, _she_ called me at 8:30 instead of the other way round. All is well. *grins*

Basically, I've a place to stay now. Low rent, and not too far. Seen/been to too many other places these few days. Every new place convinces me my choice is very good indeed.

Some interesting things: saw a tiny studio far from campus. So far, in fact, that there was a playschool across the street and kids coming home from grade school. It's the classic "perfect" suburban neighbourhood. Didn't see any grannys watering plants as with nessa's neighbourhood, but the prevalence of kids says the neighbourhood is literally as safe as it gets. Of course it's so far and there's no bus. I'd have to drive.

The question is when I can be bothered to start studying... =(

Toddling off now. Gonna try to settle next year's research openings today. ;)
