Episode XXI: House

Well I am happy to report that as of Thursday, I am a new homeowner here in Lawrence. I just closed on a condominium, a nice little place- 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, around 900-something square feet, and somewhere between 10 and 20 years old. It is part of a complex in which my place is on the top (2nd) story and someone else lives below me. Here are a few pictures I took before really moving anything in:








I still have yet to bring any food, toiletries or a bed, so I cannot consider myself to be moved in yet, but I can get by.



Incidentally, my back balcony is one of my favorite things about the condo thus far. Pretty relaxing and pleasant. The one bad thing that I found:



After a thorough search of the condo, I found only one member of the phylum Arthropoda living in my condo (well it wasn’t technically ‘alive’ when I found it). This, however, is a pleasant change from my temporary country abode, where I have found organisms from nearly every phylum, class and order living inside. I guess it is an unadvertised part of the country-living situation.

So anyway, now that I have a place I can call my own, each and every one of you reading this is invited to come and stay with me, at any time you like. Just let me know ahead of time.
