My days here are numbered...

` ...so, how about some pictures of the inside of the apartment?

` Currently, it's kind of a mess because we're moving stuff around, so I'm reluctant to take many pictures. The bedroom, for example, is full of boxes, so I may not photograph that room at all!
` As it is, Phil and EdgeWalker are now picking out furniture for when I'm gone. What do you think of their new 'lamp from Mars'?

` Watch out it doesn't drain you of your bodily fluids!! Also in the picture are Phil's antique Art Deco globe, his map of the islands and stuff outside the window, a Monet poster - oh, and his microfiber couch. Boy does that stuff repel chocolate-coffee syrup!

` Below is the lamp that had previously been in the corner, next to Butter Cookies on her scratching post.

` Shoulda adjusted the lamp, but I didn't think there was a problem with the way the image came out. (See last post.) Like I said, I'd improve the brightness and all, but Phil doesn't have a suitable photo editing program.
` Oh, such tragedy! I shall have to go without!

` The fact that my pictures tend to look just fine on the camera also explains why I didn't bother to retake this other picture (where I really needed to turn the hall light on)....
` Perhaps someday, I shall get a chance to photoshop these, but for now, this is all I have:

` Notice the ugly Salvador Dali painting in the background. (It's not even ours!) I call it 'the face dog fruit bowl'. It's also called 'Apparition'.
` You know... it's amazing how small this place looks in photos. The living room is actually about 10x20 feet or so.
` The kitchen, which is visible from the living room, is almost half that size....

` Okay, that was way too dark - even though it looked fine on my stupid crappy camera - so I took another one today:

` Well, that's a slight improvement. (Coulda just turned on the lights!) Anyway, if you're not too tired of these, I'll put up some more tomorrow. It's much easier than writing something!!!

looks FUN - but maybe a few LESS melted clocks and more MAD SCIENTIST ARTWORK!!!!!!

` Yeah, I really like this apartment, but unfortunately it's nearly $1,200 a month!

` You know what's funny? The only piece of artwork of mine hanging up is in the bathroom. An insult!!!

` As far as lamps go, the ones in the bedroom will be mine. ...Not that I'll have any room for them in my new closet... er... living space.

Can I move in once you're gone? ;)

` Not unless you wanted to negotiate over the couch with Phil and EdgeWalker....
