This is the entry way area, and thus the first thing you see when you walk into the apartment. The door on the right is our front door. As you see fabulous are throughout the apartment it is either Sam's or Dan Saner's (the guy who got me my Assistant Producer job).
This is what we stare at most of the time. The book cases along with everything in them belong to me (I have a pretty small room so I don't have anywhere to put that stuff). Chris, if you're reading, yes, that NO VACANCY sign is yours are you are going to have to travel 2,000 miles to get it back.
And this gives you a better idea of the size of the living area and seating arrangement. You can see the glass doors that lead to the main balcony from here. (The view blows, but its nice to have it.)
And now you can see the rest of the room, and put it visually together by noting that the very left side of the pictures shows the hallway you will be seeing in 2 photos.
This is our kitchen. Small but mighty. We just had a new stove put in so it actually matches the microwave - very nice touch.
And this is the aforementioned hallway. It connects the living room/entryway/kitchen to the bedrooms and bathrooms. The first open door on the right leads you to my bedroom.
And there it is! Other than being smaller, it looks a lot like my last two bedrooms because I have kept all of the decor and same bed and bedding and everything. It's nice. A little cozy. But nice. Hanging drapes made all the difference in the world. If my dad is reading, he may note that the three pictures on the wall are the ones of Daniel and I that he gave us.
And here is the other side of my room. The dresser I bought in Texas (or Arizona, how do I not remember already). It still needs to be refinished, but I have a feeling that it will always need toget refinished. And my dresser is backed by my clutter/memory wall. I have made a little collage of notes, cards, movie tickets, etc. all held up with thumb tacks. It changes all the time. I should probably grow out of having one of these (I always seem to do it somewhere) but I really like them. I find it comforting.
END OF TOUR
The rest of these pictures are from my phone. I was just clearing it out trying to make room for other pictures. Mom, I have to sincerely apologize that in the process of doing all of this I lost several pictures from our cross country trip.
Butterfly I found near the coy pond in the back yard of Harper's Ferry house.
FINALLY a sign for Los Angeles after driving over 1700 miles.
Another picture of the baby groundhog from Ohio Bike Week.
This was the first sign counting down the miles to Los Angeles during my mom and my cross country trip.
Hi Hon -- somehow this didn't go through the first time I sent it, but I wanted you to know I like your place. (If the placement of the photos was an attempt at sucking up to Dad, you succeeded.)

ReplyDeleteIt's a nice apartment. I wish my room were a bit bigger so my desk could go in it rather than it being in the living room.
I also feel like since I brought so much stuff out here (unlike Sam & Brianna), that I have taken over the living spaces a bit unfairly. Our lease is short, so I'm sure we'll all get over it.
