Move to SB

I suppose I should post here since I've been absent since, err. march.

I had to ditch North Buffalo, as much as I loved it, because the house I was living in was sold and I got a new Landlord who:

- Sang/played Rock Band loundly (and badly) till 3AM every night.
- Had friends who'd try to plant cigarette bushes in my son's sandbox from their balcony
- Decided that he wouldn't renew our lease. Probably so his cigarette-planting friends could move in.

Not that we weren't already considering moving. I was faced with the reality that as much as I liked living in Buffalo, I had to move closer to my job in the Southtowns because almost two hours of my life every day was robbed from me during my commute.

In a compromise between having to live in Orchard Park ($$$ and boring and closer) and Buffalo (cheap and interesting and far), I've settled on South Buffalo (cheap and boring and close). I'm trying to give it a chance, but right now there's not a lot I can say about South Buffalo other than the rents are cheap and it's closer to work. If you made half of the stores on Hertel vacant, and populated the other half with an alternating series of Pizza shops and Irish pubs, you'd have Seneca St. Vacant store, Pizza & wing shop, Irish pub, rinse, recycle, repeat.

Crap, I should really go to bed. I guess I could catch a Guinness before last call.
