gimme a home amongst the gum trees...

That... is actually what I'm about to do.

Have had an inkling to move for awhile. Not because I am not getting along with the flatmates, but really wanting a slightly bigger room. Jay introduced me to the Cole Valley area and wow, what a find! It is this pocket that nestles between Haight St and Twin Peaks. Most certain some fab neighbourhood bars... but with the quiet and calm that a yuppie dog owning neighbourhood brings.

New place backs onto a nature reserve -planted full of eucylyptus. Landlord lives upstairs and the apartment was newly decorated (convenient since one flatmate is an interior designer). Both flatmates are amazing cooks... on my inspection day they were just whipping up some lunch. Ohhh god didn't that smell good.

With the move comes the fun of needing to advertise my room. I have since had a few experiences with CL postings - they have mainly, er, been pulled down - but I am sure I can come up with some awesome copy to sell this space. I mean, this room has had a pretty good record... the flatmates have only moved out because of work situation, and moving in/ near to the boys.

On that note... Jay and I are doing good. Not sure if I should call him my BF but its also nice to not have labels. We're doing something together once a week or so... i love it. I'm comfortable around him. He's quirky and cheeky... sometimes need to be reigned in but hey, just what I like;)
