Jason is moving out at the end of this month, so I’ll have a spare room in my apartment. The new lease would be for eight or up to ten months.

I live at 75 and Northwest Hwy in The Village (The Hill, specifically). It’s a 1244 sq ft two-level townhome with two bedrooms, each having its own bathroom and a walk-in closet (there’s also an additional bathroom downstairs).

There’s a washer/dryer right in the apartment, and the kitchen includes a microwave, garbage disposal, and a dishwasher. The floorplan is available online.

Cable-modem is already setup, and there’s a port in each bedroom (via a Linksys gateway). I’ve also setup wireless networking (Wi-Fi/802.11b) in case you have a PDA or laptop that can make use of that.

Rent is $1007 in total, or about $504 each. The utilities, listed separately below, add on about $100/month (of course, you could opt out of paying cable-tv or cable-modem if you didn’t use those).

• Water & Electricity - about $50/month each
• Phone - about $10/month each
• Cable-tv - about $23/month each
• Cable-modem - about $23/month each

I’m available on ICQ (3812078) and AIM (standardsfanatic). Or, if you would prefer to talk over the phone, my cell number is (469) 569-7421.

Earlier today, Leia mentioned to me about Traffic.com where you can get real-time traffic reports for many metropolitan cities. Of course, Dallas is there, but several other cities such as Pittsburgh are also listed.

My only gripe is that this would have been an ideal opportunity to make use of the “title” attribute on the accident-links — instead of including the incident report (or an excerpt of it) in the title tags, their text just says “Click here for more info” :-/.

Is there a protocol for asking people out at the gym? Or, is there no means of achieving that while maintaining etiquette? There’s this cute girl that often uses the treadmills around the time I do, and she’s about my age (25-26, or so). Hmm.
