The One

It's official - I've found the one I'm going to spend my life with! No not that 'the one', my apartment! I know I told you it would be posted on Wednesday but that just couldn't be done. My sincerest apologies, so no need for hate mail.
My apartment is everything I wanted and more. There are little things about it that I'd hoped for but didn't dare expect to actually find. It's an english basement a few blocks from Eastern Market and only a short walk from the Metro. It has windows, space, a real kitchen, and a walk-in closet. And best of all, I think I'll get to keep my purple futon. Oh how I love that futon.

This is view as you walk in the front door. You can see the living room/dining room and kitchen. Obviously, this is not my stuff. These pictures are to just give you an idea of where I'll be.

This is from the dining area. I just wanted to show off those windows. Hello sunlight!


It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood, A beautiful day for a neighbor, Would you be mine? Could you be mine?

The Search

The search is on and man is it tough. That's right folks, I've started my search for apartments in the DC area. It's been two weeks of internet search after internet search, emailing co-workers and friends and friends of friends and friends of friends of friends. The good news is that I leave on Sunday to go look at places and I WILL return with a place to live. I can't wait for this time next week because 'the search' will have ended. So come back next week - same time, same place - to see where I'll be living. Now doesn't that sound like a fun way to spend your Wednesday night?
Until then...
