Arrgh, I can't decide.

luzulaOkay, so I've got a decision to make, and maybe if I write it down, it'll become clearer. I've been apartment-hunting for some time in the city I'll be moving to for my post-doc, and nothing. Then suddenly, two good options turned up at the same time. Yeah, I know, it's a win-win situation and I shouldn't complain. Anyway:
Alternative 1:
Big house where we'd be renting one pretty big bedroom. Lots of communal rooms (including a sauna), four other people in the same house. A big forest right outside the door. Starts at January, which is just when we have to move. The guy I spoke to sounded okay, but not like a terribly exciting person. OTOH, there'll be three other people there.
Alternative 2:
Another communal house, where a friend of ours whom we really like lives. This won't start until February, so we'd have to find somewhere else to live for a month. Not as much communal space, but we'd get two rooms to ourselves, which could be good. Maybe 15 minutes walk to that same forest.
Both have low rent and are close to the university, so that's not an issue.
Arrgh, we really have to decide this soon. Maybe if I sleep on it.

Hmm, Fraser. Yes and no. I mean, he lives in his office? Also, I bet RCMP training made him used to living in dorms and stuff. I do think he's a private person, but I think it's more that he keeps his thoughts and feelings to himself. (See, the conversation can always be turned to Fraser.)
