The New Apartment

Here are photos of the apartment. Lauren drove me into the city on Monday morning and dropped me off around 9. I then proceeded to nap until 12noon because I was still on CA time and exhausted. I live in the Southwest Quadrant of DC... super near the SEU Waterfront Metro, in case the family would like to look me up. Don't worry, I have in no way given away my specific location.

FIRST! The entrance. You can see the door mat in the hall -- that's where you enter. The kitchen is directly in front, the hallway to the bedrooms on the right, and the hallway to the living area on the left.
Living area! A tiny card table is our dining table, and I can use a bike to get around.



Here is the living area, well, one wall of it. We even have a balcony overlooking the park and Souteastern University nearby.
Here is the other part of the living area -- stacked high with magazines because the woman I share the apartment with is getting married in April.
The Kitchen! It took me a while to find things, but things went as smoothly as cooking ever does for me. In the last post, you saw my success of butternut squash, kale/spinach, and chicken. I can now say that the chicken is overcooked, the garlic on the greens was burnt, and the squash was smooshy. But still, I am fed.

By now I have figured out the photo settings!


When you walk into my bedroom, this is the view! The bedspread/sheets combo is very me, and there is an almost-matching grey rug on the floor. My room comes off the balcony, so one wall has a giant window, the other has a sliding glass door onto the balcony (don't worry, I am many floors up and the door is LOCKED!).




All in all, I think this will be a great place for me to be for a month.
