Neighbor Patti

Patti and Parker

Patti is the only one nimble enough to really do things around the house, so you'll see quite a bit of her.

 

Looks pretty good!

Ta daa!

 

New Wallpaper

Everyone came over to help install our new wallpaper and beadboard.  It was pretty tough and we had to have the giant outside help us.  

Patti almost poked holes in the wall.  Dipshit.  She tries hard, but seriously.

 

 

It takes FOREVER to press out bubbles with your fingertips.

Yes I'm still wearing last night's clothes shut up.

Househunting and Looking at Apartments

Went out today to look at some apartments.  This one is furnished and the furniture isn't that bad.  I hate the pink on the closet and in the bathroom but I can do something about it someday.  My priority will be to somehow to get actual windows where those weird blue posters are!

I hope I get this apartment.  I'm sick of house hunting.

Also I hate my job.  I literally know NO ONE ELSE who has to dress this way at work.  This is my first night in the new apartment, I brought my two cats, some of my stuff and my portable fireplace.

A Break-In!!

 

We were shocked to come home to find someone had broken in and knocked over our stuff! Luckily they didn't steal anything. 

Neighbors say they saw a giant cat but that sounds ridiculous. 

New Armoire (?)

 

 

Got this new armoire from Yardsale (rad iPhone app). Some would call it a card filing box, but I like to think of it as a bookshelf or something perfect for our living room. 

Settling in and Going out!

Cozy night at home. I think we need better lights though. 

 

 

Doing some filing. 

 

Listening to records 

 

Kitty!

 

Junk food and magazines 

 

Should I wear this to go out? Lame

 

Hooker Barbie

She's got something special

 

New bookshelf!

First Party!

 

Here's me finally putting my stuff away. 

 

Unpacking blows. I hate it. 

 

 

Shalini! And Parker. 

 

Bathroom full of crap. 

 

Oh! Todd our neighbor. He lives across the hall and helped bring up our groceries. 

 

 

 

Selfie

 

Magazine and wine

 

Our house!

Unpacking with the new roommate!

Lit a fire finally, and met my roommate Shalini. 

 

She has two cats. This one is Parker. 

 

That's Shalini. She said we should get a new cover for this sofa. 

 

This is her other cat, Porty. 

 

We bought some groceries. 

 

And started unpacking. 

 

And moved the fireplace downstairs. I love the view of our English garden!
