Apt 202

What I’ll miss about Apt 202:
The three part mirror on the medicine cabinet. Sometimes you want to know what’s up with the back of your head.

Shelves. It had a plethora. New place is lacking.

Hardwood floors. Apt 208 is half carpeted. Good thing I already had a bottle of Resolve.

Ventilation. Apt 202′s bathroom had a fan and a heat lamp with smaller fan and a timer. Apt 208′s has a little passive vent over the tub. Kitchen 202 also had a hood vent, 208 again just a passive vent.

Hot Lips across the street. :-(

What I won’t miss about Apt 202:
Hot water took FOR. EVER.

Noise. I’ve covered this plenty elsewhere.

The front room. It was like a mini-landfill without the seagulls. Or stench. Or disease. Or piles of garbage. Okay, “landfill” was a tad melodramatic.

Smoke detector. Apt 202′s went off when I made toast. Apt 208′s is supposedly very sensitive as well but there’s a window opposite it from the kitchen that should draw off any minor smoke.

Culture jamming events (aka riots) on Burnside.
