Updates: Car, Roommates, Tucker, Housing

Car:

The car is still on EBAY with 3 days left. It's up under Rob's name and there are a few bidders but the bidding hasn't met the reserve price yet and it won't sell unless it reaches that price. I have one (maybe 2) options for loaner cars in the case that my car sells before I leave.

Roommates:

I have showed the room to 3 people so far. I haven't been crazy about any of them. One was a guy that was borderline serial killer, one was a really sweet girl but she had 2 dogs (with Erin's beagle that would have been overkill), and one was only interested in a short term lease.

I'm meeting 2 girls today, one at 3:00 and one at 6:00. Hoping one or both of them work out. One girl has a pet bird and I'm praying she's not bringing it over today. It's fine if she wants it in the house after I'm gone but you all know my ridiculous bird phobia...

Tucker:

Plans for Tucker-my chocolate lab-are still up in the air right now. I have 3 options for him where I would feel comfortable and he would be happy but those plans aren't completely solidified yet.

Housing:

I found a hostel where I think I'm going to stay for my first week in Sydney. http://www.blogger.com/www.boomerangbackpackers.com I know it looks worse than my old dorm Creswell at the University of Georgia, but it's all I really need. And I can stand to put up with community showers for a week. Just kidding, there are private showers.....I hope.
