Moving.....again

So, I'm super excited, terrified, overwhelmed, happy, ecstatic, nervous, and just about everything else all rolled into one right now. I got the job at Trinity Rep, which seems as if it'll be exactly the same thing I did at Barter, but less hours and less stress....sounds like a fabulous mix to me. Anywhos, I start in early August and have to find a place to live. Unfortunately the company doesn't provide it. Yeah, so I'm a little unsure of where to start. Well, one of the other electricians volunteered to help point me in the right direction and he told me where to definitely not live. I like him already because that's something that was really worrying me. And I started looking on Craigslist...unfortunately, most of the stuff on there probably won't even be available in July, and so I wonder if I'm not wasting my time, or if I should continue searching anyway?
