Happy Thanksgiving
Re: $875 3BR in Best Part of Park Slope - 2 Rooms Avail 7/1 - Have Your Pick!
Happy Friday to you fellow Park Sloper!
My name is _____, and I’m a 30 something female looking for a place to live in Park Slope. I currently life on 8th Street but need to move out of my current place in July. I’m interested in the master bedroom, it sounds really fantastic! All of which is great, but I also really liked how you wrote the ad, it reminded me of ad’s I’ve placed in the past when I’ve had to look for a roommate.
A bit about me: I’m fairly easy going, like to laugh, am originally from the DC area, have a variety of interests and work in Manhattan during normal business hours. I work for a financially stable company, pay my bills on time, and actually have no debt! All of which I realize is a rarity these days. I’m not a huge party person, and I’ve had several roommates in my life all of which I’ve gotten on with very well. I like my home to be a drama free zone and a place where I can relax. I also do dishes and have no problem cleaning. Generally I like to live with people I get on with and can feel comfortable having conversations with in passing. I have no pets, I don’t smoke, I’ve never been in a re-hab facility of any kind and I don’t have “crazy eyes”. Adults and children of all ages like me!
If your around this weekend, I would love to come by and see the place. If you have any questions for me, please let me know. Feel free to call me at _____.
I hope you enjoy the great weather!

REJECTED CUZ:
- “30 something female” ALWAYS means 39 year old female. With cats. And ovarian disease.
- Oh yeah, this weather we’re having is really great, ain’t it? What’d you think about the weather we had yesterday? Did you love it? I can’t wait for the weather we’ll be having tomorrow! Should be partly cloudy. Oh wait, this just in: looks like there’s a cold front coming. Oh shit. Doppler radar is showing there’s a 100% chance of you not becoming my roommate! Happy Friday???

New Blog
I started a new blog featuring real-life bozos who’ve responded to my various Roommate Wanted ads over the years and the reasons why they were barred from stepping foot into my apartment: Your Future Roommate - Check it out and pass along.

In Washington on a business trip. It’s nice down here.
#11 of 52 Books in 52 Weeks - Nowhere Man - By: Aleksandar Hemon | Really nice prose. So-so on the story-telling. A loose assembly of narratives about a guy pushed to the marginalia by the Bosnian war and other displacing events. I’d like to read his more recent novel, Lazarus Project, at some point.
