Well we're finally getting ready to pack up and head north and it even looks like we found a place in NYC with everything we could want. Quick commute to Columbia for my wife, great kitchen, plenty of indoor space, and even a yard, all for a fairly affordable price!
Oh, except it's actually in Edgewater, NJ not NYC. Turns out finding all that in NYC plus an affordable price really IS impossible. But still, we're really stoked. The place is actually a converted 1870's era farmhouse, with a lot of the original woodwork still in place. So, not only does it look like I'll have room for knives given the open kitchen, I might even be able to have a mini-garden!!! That, and Mitsuwa is right down the road! Living in "the city" may not suck as hard as I had thought it would.
Still, leaving NC is gonna be rough. It's a great place to live if anyone is considering moving down! And if anyone does swing by the area, make sure you stop by Watt's Grocery and post about how awesome and (compared to NYC prices) inexpensive the food is! Durham has definitely been good to us.
