shall i stay or shall i go now?

so, when i moved here, i was really happy. my apartment complex is not the ritziest, a little dated. but the cost was really reasonable and i wouldn't be cash poor. and i loved the location, right on the city's jogging trail and a quick trip to bars, restaurants,and shops. i loved the layout of the apartment. i loved that they had a little gym. and a pool. and the people seemed friendly. There was a pretty nice amount of storage. things were good.

then the place was bought by a new management company. and well, let's put it this way... they suck. they really do. and when the management sucks, things go on downhill from there.

so i'm pondering whether i should move. and there are nicer places around here to live. but they'll cost me more. and well, i'm sincere when i tell you that the location here really can't be beat, both in terms of how close it is to my work and the proximity to stuff to do and places to go.

plus, it's just a hassle to move. even while, i do travel quite light in the world anymore. it's still a hassle.

so, i just don't know. i don't really have to decide until summer, because that's when my lease is up. but perhaps, i'll start looking around a bit.

times like this, i do wish i was rich. because then i could just up and move to somewhere that would be better enough that i wouldn't miss the location. for that matter, if i were rich, i wouldn't have to work at all.


but that would be bad, i guess. because then i'd become vapid. and oh my heavens, i wouldn't like that.
