Elise's new obsession

I am so, so sorry that I haven't written in forever. Believe it or not, I have a lot less school work these days. That's been really great but still I don't seem to find the time to write. Why? Because all I do when I'm on the Internet is look up housing in DC. Do you know how hard it is to find a 2 bedroom, 2 bath in the city? Some places look really great and then I read an angry review and I'm right back to searching again. I won't be moving until the summer but I'm trying to get a feel for the market. Well, my friends, that feeling is not pretty. In Charlottesville, I rent a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath, 3 floor townhouse for $1,300. This place would easily be more than $5,000 in DC.

And buying a place... well, those prices are out of control. Arghh! The things I'll do to live in the city.
