At last, at last

I think I have found an apartment. It's the one room studio, bigger than the dorm room, and I'd have it to myself, plus I wouldn't have to share a bathroom with 18 other girls. it's $220/month, and I filled out the application for it today and put down a $220 payment. She says she's pretty sure I'll do well and have a chance at the apartment.

I might have to commute for the first couple of days or move all my stuff in a Uhaul and set it outside of Brett's (gotta ask, first), and stay there for a couple nights 'til one of the people in the singles move out.

Just about had a heart attack on the way back home, however. I was cruisin' along, doing 80mph, when a Highway Patrolman coming the opposite direction slowed wayyyy down, crossed the median and got into my lane and turned his lights on right behind me. Scared the piss out of me. So I pulled off on the shoulder and slowed way down...but he passed me. Then I realized it was probably the Virginia Impala that passed me doing 90mph that he was probably after. I never did see him pull anyone over, but about 10 miles after he scared the piss out of me, we saw him going back the opposite direction again. It was odd. But I was just thinking..."I cannot afford another speeding ticket...I just got the first one off my record..."

But they never get you if you're just donig 80mph. Thank goodness. Or I'd be in trouble. Or I'd have to leave for work a lot earlier than I already do...
