Moving On Up!


Hurrah, hurrah! I'm all moved in and fairly settled at my Brottier apartment. Its almost like being a real adult. Damn, living in the ghetto and having to swipe the ID still.


Anyways, I'm actually quite impressed with our humble little studio. We do have quite a bit of floor space, which is nice since I was worried the furniture would somehow not all fit, although the kitchen is pretty much microscopic. And there is no counter space. That makes cooking difficult--very, very difficult. I predict third degree burns at least once. But no matter, the closet is AMAZING! And, yes, I'm aware that it is just a closet so I shouldn't be so excited, but still, this baby is huge! More shelves than you can shake a stick at (or than I can reach *blushy*). The bathroom is also fairly nice, although there is one errant hot pink Hawaiian flower on the wall. How did they miss that?


The best part of it all, however, is the view! Check this out!!!! I would keep the blinds wide open all day to admire it, but I think I might roast with the extreme sunlight and all. But the nighttime view is certainly where its at. I've watched the Gateway Clipper ships go by several times and load/unload at Station Square and I can see all the pretty sky scrapers downtown with their lights and such. Definitely better than staring at Stevenson St. and Mercy's Nursing School, which, btw, was built in like 1850 and has most certainly seen better days. *happy sigh* Its just so pretty!


Oh yes, one more thing. NO MORE TRAIN! I've seen the train go by across the river but haven't yet heard its obnoxiously loud whistle or the cars bouncing along the tracks. We will have peace!
