I have completed the preliminary steps to making my move to Boston. I have shipped my books there. Although I haven't yet located an apartment, or other such living arrangement, luckily I got an address from a friend of Tina's friend. So Linh, although I haven't met you yet, thank you for housing my books for a little while before I arrive. As much as I may hate the increasing rates of mailing items, I still love the media rate mail--seven medium-sized boxes of books for $100.
I peruse craigslist each day for some new, good deals to live in, but so far I've had no luck. The cheap ones go so fast. Securing housing will be on my top priority list when I am in KS for a couple weeks--it has to be, there is no other option. I think I'll just sit in front of the computer all day hitting refresh and waiting for the one I want, then I'll call immediately.
