Season Tix!

So today I ordered my Bills season tickets. Not bad, section 241. Didn't want to be in the nosebleeds. Plan on getting the Bills plate when I get up there too, am on the Sabres season ticket waiting list (might take 2 years or so to get to my name :( ) and will get Bandits seasons as well. I'm gung ho Buffalo!

Population +2....make that 4?

Today my mom surprised me with news that they too were now considering a move back home to Buffalo. My Dad apparently brought it up which is the part that really shocked me. Once I leave they'll essentially be alone in FL so I really home they come back up. So the damage on our part of moving away will be reversed and I'll have added one more person to the area. Let Buffalo rise!

Apartment

Finally found a place to live for my first year in "Buffalo" and it's in Amherst. I know, I know, sorry. But the criteria was tough...a 2BR rental with central a/c that allows large dogs. After 6 months or so I'll start looking at houses in the city, then I'll finally really live in Buffalo.

I live about 200 feet from the city border, so technically I'm in Tonawanda I suppose. I spend lots of money in Buffalo; I'm not not part of the solution. There's nothing wrong, per se, with the suburbs, and they need help and people too. Settle in before you start beating yourself up for not living in the city.

One thing nobody's mentioned so far about how much Buffalo rocks: We finally have our own ROLLER DERBY TEAM!!! :::link:::
:D Sorry, that's my obligatory-pimpage post. (I am a member of the Nickel City Knockouts.)
And we do not discriminate: we come from Buffalo, Amherst, Tonawanda, Orchard Park, Lackawanna... even Southern Ontario. It's all good, baby, it's all culturally relevant.

Welcome to Buffalo. You will most likely be furnished shortly after your arrival with a list of restaurants at which you are required to eat before you can continue living, because it is that important to experience them. They are one of the reasons I'm still here. From humble hot dog joints to five-star gourmet places, there's pretty much nothing here I'd regret eating.

tiburon1724 writes at 04:34:58 04/08/07 - Comment #17262: about 15 minutes. It's the fact that I'm not within city limits and therefore not truly part of the "solution" so to speak.

How far is Amherst from downtown?

james writes at 10:45:41 04/07/07 - Comment #17236: (e:Jim) and I have a Newfie so we understand how tough it is to find an apartment that allows large dogs.

If I hear of any 2bdr that allow them I will let you know so that you may come ever closer to our beloved city.
