Application In
More than locating an apartment, it's the securing that's the issue. The list of requirements on the applicatin was pretty extensive - prove this, credit check that, references this, cash and cheques for that.
I was up way too early this morning after having watched back-to-backs of Intervention. (Why can't they have them at least an hour earlier?) I was off to the bank to get my $200 cash for the deposit and then down to the renting office to wait for them to open. The plan was to get there at about 8:30am to wait for them to open and to head off or pre-empt any potential competitors. As luck would have it, the temperature finally dropped today. Dropped to the kind of cold where I had to turn off the white-noise fan to ensure that I got out of bed . . .
The wait was pretty boring and I definitely went for overkill. One person arrived closer to 9 and although he hung around the buidling, he didn't end up going in. It was the young lady who arrive at almost 9 who went straight for the door that had me concerned! I'm pretty sure we were thinking the same thing about each other; "I'll be damned if I don't get this apartment because of this person, what do I do to make sure I get it . . . " Waste of thinking. Once we got in to the office, it turns out we're applying for seperate apartments.
So, it's hurry up and wait time. Wednesday at eleven o'clock I am to call and get an answer.
