PH, the ChiTheory on apartments (as I remember from many years ago) is that the landlords expect that the tenants will take the appliances with them in the lower cost digs and that they will respect the ownership of the appliances in the higher priced spreads.
[Sorry to hear that you had to reboot. | Congratulations on rebooting.] I've done it a few times myself.
I had a friend who was a native and to her everything was just two blocks away. It may be four miles away; but, it was only two blocks. I learned to walk a lot in Chicago and after the last winter I spent there I have never complained about winter that much (except for a winter in Buffalo, but that is another story.)
It is a great place to be. A great place to reinvent yourself. A great place to start over.
PM me your address, I think I have an extra box of baggies around here someplace.
