Answer my questions
About me
I'm a 22 year-old recent college graduate...I just got a job offer in DC and will be moving on October 26th. I grew up in Minneapolis, MN, and have lived in Phoen, AZ since I graduated. In fall 09 I will be starting grad school while working full-time...until then, I'll probably wait tables two or three nights a week.
I'm a really, really laid back guy. I'm very political (liberal) but am tolerant of opposing views. I'm a vegetarian, but my family is full of meat-eaters. I like sports, live music, good beer, and good discussion. I'm a pretty big nerd, and I embrace it.
I get up before 6am.I go to bed 12am - 2am.I eat vegetarian.My level of cleanliness is best described as clean.I occasionally have overnight guests.I party occasionally.
My work schedule is best described as "professional (9-5)". My professional occupation is internet/media.
I do not have any pets.
I am looking for
I'm looking to share a nice apartment in the DC area with a young, fun person like myself. Gender isn't important to me. I'd like to live in DC, but am more than open to a place in Arlington, Alexandria, Falls Church, or anywhere that has ready Metro access.
Since I'm going to be new to the area, I'd like someone who can be more than just a roommate - I'd like a friend as well.
My roommate preferences
I am looking for roommates between the ages of 18 and 25. I don't mind if my roommates smoke outside only. I don't mind if my roommates have a pet cat, a pet dog.
