This all took place two or three years ago. I was living in a three-bedroom house with a couple roommates. It wasn't exactly a nice place, but it was a great location and cheap rent. After my roommate Tim moved out, I was put in charge of finding someone new to move in.
Most of the people who had lived there were single dudes in their twenties and thirties, so it definitely had a bit of a bachelor pad vibe to it. We weren't filthy or anything, but cleaning was not our top priority. I didn't discriminate when I was renting out the place, but generally girls did not seem interested.
There was one girl, however, who was interested right off the bat. She loved the location (near Barton Springs and Zilker Park, if you're familiar with Austin) and wanted to come check it out as soon as possible. I was working hectic schedule, so it was tricky to fit in times to show the room, but one night I told her I'd be home by ten, and she said she'd come over then.
