Exactly. We haven't looked at anything in Virginia yet. I like Alexandria, and it could be an option....
We have operated apartments in Falls Church for quite a while and do know a bit about the markets and the wrinkles involved when you rent in Virginia. If we can help with some questions about local customs and procedures, just ask. |

And the taxation issue in VA is a large factor. Since neither of you will work in DC, before you move there do an evaluation of the commuter wage tax and other taxation items. I will bet that if you were to end up in Alex you could save a significant bundle and also have a good neighborhood to enjoy.

I can see the value in that, but I have more value in not having to share walls with people I'm not married to. :-:

The person passed me to board the NRT-LAX flight. I turned to notice that going down the back of this person's light gray sweatpants, was this long wide brown stain. For the sake of sanity, I took no pictures. I instead praised various gods that this person was not on my flight. |

I looked into Zip car because I was attracted to the $11/hour (fuel and insurance included) but it was too good to be true. That is before tax and fees, which in NJ are pretty high. Basically makes more sense for me to schlep out to EWR and get a car from the Executive Isle at National once every other month or so when we need one for big shopping trips or weekend vacations. In most cases I need something bigger than a Prius/Civic anyway.

Lungs are supposed to be nice and juicy - not filled with fluid. So I'm on meds and trying to expectorate without coughing myself silly.

Are income taxes generally lower/higher in Virginia? I couldn't really tell from your post.

Three times since January 1 I've sat next to a COS who smelled like that person's pants too. The worst was in the aisle seat of my ORD-IAH flight in February, and I had the window seat (in F, of course). He had to stand up to adjust the volume on the IFE system because his body completely blocked the controls while seated. That meant his @$$ was in my face when he changed the volume, which he seemed to do frequently. And it smelled like he hadn't cleaned down there in a very long time. |

In DC it's $7/hour or $77/day. I could see for shorter periods of a few hours on a Saturday or Sunday using ZipCar. For anything longer, or if we needed a larger vehicle, we could just rent one from a traditional rental company. Washington Union Station has rental desks for several companies, including National, so I could see that as a very possible option for those times when we're not just making a Target or Whole Foods run.

Thank you CO reservations lady for taking my ZRH-JFK-CLT-IAH and turning it into ZRH-JFK/EWR-CLT-IAH with a full two hours to get to EWR. :rolleyes:

Management just listed a promotion opportunity. A supervisor/coordinator position that reports to my current manager and is a salaried position that pays the same as my current base pay with no overtime. What the :rolleyes:
I think I will pass this one up and continue to pick and choose when I want overtime and not have someone tell me when I must work overtime without being compensated |

Howdy, Box! Aerobics on the street in Mexico City yesterday morning was pretty entertaining. So was eating carne de calle. :D |
