Finger Crossing Request
I have an apartment. It’s nice. But it’s on the first floor, which means that it tends to be a little dark this time at year.
Today I learned that the couple living in the apartment 4th floor to the left are about to buy a house. Good for them. Or rather: I’m really happy for them!
Now, the thing is, that we have a rule in this Cohousing Cooperative (Andelsboligforening) that grants residents a first right to take over apartments that people leave. A step up the ladder.
The apartment in question has an extra room. And loads of light. And the rent is only 100 DKR extra a month… Drool. Drool.
Here’s the catch: I’m not the first in line. In fact I’m third in line. If One or Two chooses to move in, I can take over their apartment. But but but but I’d really like to get there first. To the top of the ladder in one giant leap.
So could you guys out there pleeeeaaase cross your fingers?
With a more attractive apartment I might be able to find a nice girl. A little one that I could take care of. Or a big one that could take care of me. Maybe a nurse. That would really bring the old bus back on the road!
They’ll let me know Sunday.
Update, Sunday: Hrmpf. It looks like One got it. But I can have her apartment. 5th floor. Light and rooftops. And warmer. I think I’m going for it. The expenses should be kept to a minimum. Below DKR 1000, the movement of phone and DSL included. And beer for the moving squad.
Thanks for the crossing of fingers — I’m sure it helped me!

They´re crossed! A nurse? Ahh yes. I could use one of those. And maybe an alarm button right next to the bed. Better safe than sorry.

I’ll gladly cross my fingers :-)
but I guess you’ll have to work a little harder than that on the girl part… ;-)
