Best day ever?

Well, to say that apartment hunting in San Francisco can be dispariging would be an understatement. In the last few days we have looked at countless places and attended several cattle call open houses. Last night, we just kind of broke down and let the stress get to us, even though honestly everything about this trip was going fantastic - but it was looking like we just weren't going to find a place.

So, last night - as we were browsing craigs list we tried a new approach and started searching for rooms available to rent in a house. Low and behold we find a place in Haight Ashbury that sounds perfect and send them an email, they respond minutes later. We went and looked at the place this morning, it is literally on the corner of Haight and Ashbury and truly was perfect. The place was huge, has a private backyard, protected bike storage, a big kitchen and an office. Not to mention our room is bigger than most of the studios we have been looking at. We got a long great with the guys and they said it was ours!!

Now here is the kicker - the house used to be rented out by Jimi Hendrix, not for himself but for his girlfriends. This means Jimi Hendrix got laid probably hundreds of time in our future home - maybe even in our very room. Now, if that isn't Mojo (capital M!) then I don't know what is!!

PEACE to you all!
