Affable Omnivorous Gay Male Seeks Shelter

Affable Omnivorous Gay Male Seeks Shelter

My Craigslist Advert Date: 2004-06-16, 2:39PM PDT Hey Y’all, I’m a 27 year-old gay Nor Cal native who has lived in SF for the past 3.5 years. I’m looking to move into a place mid-July – beginning of August. I'm willing to spend 500-700 clams for a room; more coin if the place is truly worth it. I want the place, as cliché as it sounds, to be home sweet home. During the weekdays I work as an Intellectual Property Paralegal for a multimedia company in the Mission. (Feel free to ask me about it because it is quite interesting. The 3 P’s: Peer2Peer, Porn and Politics.) At night I can be found at SFSU finishing up their Creative Writing program. Each semester is different so my schedule changes. The weekends I chill out with friends or go on road trips. I’m affable and easy to get along with. I don’t do the passive-aggressive thing, so you won’t see notes tagged up on the fridge or a list of everything you do that drives me crazy (we’ve all been there haven’t we?) Any challenges that arise I feel should be nipped in the bud before they become unmanageable. I like to keep common areas clean and I don’t freak out if there’s a glass in the sink. I’m looking for roommate(s) that feel the same. I don’t drink or swear or rat my hair... Actually I don’t smoke or do drugs though I do have the occasional libation. I eat meat and it doesn’t bother me if you happen to be Vegan or Vegetarian. It’s all good in my book. 420 friendly, but I don’t smoke. Having a rather irreverent sense of humor sets me apart from most everyone else you’ll meet. I’m a cross between Harold from “Harold and Maude” and Enid from “Ghost World” Everyday I choose a Daily Hero to obsess over (though my obsession is quite mild and almost apathetic— “I’m obsessed with _______” and that’s usually where it ends.) I’m a hopeless blogger. I’m a hopeless jogger. I’m just an ogger. I have to mention as part of my parole— just kidding. I’ve never been incarcerated or for that matter have yet to do anything worthy of being incarcerated for. I am toting a pet. She lives in a cage, is quiet and well mannered and exclusively will stay in my room. I like dogs, cats, birds and exotics. As I mentioned, I work in the Mission. I’d like to find some place close enough to work but far enough away. Ideal neighborhoods for me are Castro/Upper Market, Noe Valley, Ashbury Terrace/Cole Valley, Buena Vista Park, the Haight, and the Panhandle. I’d go to Pacific Heights, Russian Hill or Nob Hill if the place was just right—and there’s street parking. I own a small pickup and I’m not getting rid of it any time soon. I encourage questions so please feel free to ask. Thanks! PS: While I'm articulate, I generally don't talk as much as I write unless I've eatten some kiddie cocaine AKA sugar; which would make me a lot like Chrissy from "Pecker"
