No Saints Parade For Me

Well I know one person who won’t be at the Saints parade this evening and that’s me! I’m just not a big parade person period. When I first moved down here it was fun and everything, but now it’s just more of a pain in the ass. Instead of thinking about how awesome it’s going to be I’m too busy thinking about all the ridiculous amounts of traffic and drunk people. Not my cup of tea. I will be at home, doing school work, and sitting next to a cozy fire. Sounds like a good deal to me! Than tomorrow afternoon Layla and I are going apartment hunting. That’s going to be fun, but we have to try to do it on our own. Both sides of our family have offered to help us make a down payment on a house (I have some saved up as well) but we don’t want to spread ourselves too thin. A house sounds nice but you need furniture for that house, utilities, there’s a baby on the way etc. It’s just kind of out of our price range. I’m hoping my friend may be able to help us out a little. His parents rent out a small house right across the street from where they live and who knows maybe in a few months the tenants might move out. So far this year they’ve had maybe 4 people move in and out so who knows. We’ve told them we’re looking so just keep your fingers crossed. It’s 2 bedrooms (very small bedrooms) and one bath with a nice decent sized living area and kitchen nook not anything to spectacular, but it’s very clean and tidy and in a nice neighborhood so I can’t complain. Until then we’ll keep looking.
