Way back at the beginning of October I started cleaning out my office and posted about looking for a roommate. This week, with the trip to the DI and getting rid of a bunch of stuff, I finally got the room ready. Now I just have to find a compatible roommate.
I don’t want to advertise, I don’t need a roommate bad enough that I’m willing to go through all the trouble of meeting a bunch of total strangers and trying to figure out which one I can trust in my house, and could live with. 
The three times I’ve rented out that room it was to people I worked with or the friend of a trusted friend. All three times it worked out great. Not perfect, there’s always issues when you share your personal space with another human, but there were no regrets.
So, I’ll wait. The room may stay vacant for a while and it may take a little longer to pay off the debts I want to, but that’s ok. Good roommates come to those who wait.

Yep good roomies are hard to come by.. and sometimes w/friends it can be rough... especially if not everyone's cards are on the table...
That's true, you can't ever be 100% sure. But I've been lucky, and hoping that it can happen again. Hopefully.
Good thing Chevron let you have a job again, though. Too bad the cats don't pay rent.
Yeah, I'm glad they wanted me back, if it weren't for them I would need a roommate. Cash would be nice from the cats, but they do kind of pay their way. Don't see a single sign of mice with them around, I was starting to see signs right before I got them. Plus, they amuse me.
