I hope to hear from the management today, but I applied for a two bedroom, two bathroom place at Canterbury Apartments (http://www.equityapartments.com/market/brochure.aspx?page=overview&PropID=151) in Germantown, MD. You would have to go through the application process as well, but it's mostly to make sure that you can afford the rent, which should be no problem with us splitting it.
While it is quite close to two shopping areas -- 10 minute walk to the groceries, 15 to a playhouse, 20 to the cinema -- it's a bit of trip to DC, especially if you don't have a car as I don't. On the other hand, the MARC commuter train station is about a mile away, so if your job is in DC, you'll be able to get to it easily.
For me as a roommate, I'm currently working the midnight-to-8:30am shift, and would like it quiet in the evenings. I'm not terribly neat, but I won't leave dirty dishes all over the place or strew clothes on the floor of the living room. I'll be most concerned with neatness in the kitchen.
I am fannish, but I'm also into fiber crafts -- I have two spinning wheels and a loom that will be moving with me, and at least one of those is going to take up residence in the living room. I'll probably be leaving my knitting basket by the couch (just as soon as I get one) once I move in.
If this sounds like something you can live with, we should move this to private email, and maybe try a face-to-face meetup.
