5. It has its issues.

Mainly that it is up a fairly narrow and twisty stairway and we have to consider how two old men can get furniture up them. We would try to get some help, but bear in mind that we know no one here, except others who are just as bad off as we are, and anything else is going to cost money. We don't have that much. In fact, we have less than three digits in the bank. I know the landlord offered to 'pay for the move', but we also know how much like a rug he is. There are washer/dryer hookups (which I did not know was there, since it was not listed. Good thing, though). Overall, I kind of like it and I love the area where it is located. (If you want 'eclectic', move near a university. Heh.)

Right now, I am having to consider whether or not I am going to march into the garage, grab a pair of pliers, and pull this tooth out myself. The dentist, whom I saw today, has to await approval from the insurance leeches. That could take up to four weeks. I will be committing horrible atrocities by then if I do not get some relief. No one seems able to help me without insurance. All of the clinics that have 'sliding scale' and such have wait list longer than the wait time for approval.

I have antibiotics and Ibuprofen. Thanks 'greatest healthcare system in the world'!
