Apartment Numero Uno -- The Living Room

These next few posts are vaguely embarrassing, because I only just realized that the only pictures I ever took of my previous two apartments were either taken because I was trying to inspire myself to clean (so they're shots of REALLY MESSY rooms), we (Tim and I) were in the process of moving furniture, or it had snowed, and I was trying desperately to get a good picture of the snow before it all melted away. I live in Texas, dontchaknow?  When it snows, it's a small miracle... and when the snow lasts for over a day, it's like an act of God that you were blessed with this mythical water byproduct that so many people curse and mangle their cars over.  So you'll understand when I tell you how exciting it was.

Without further ado, I present to you... Some really terrible snapshots of my first apartment that aren't actually the best representation I could possibly make of it!  (It was a nice apartment, but I shared it with two guys--and before I moved in it had TWO MORE guys living in it.  Sheesh!)

This was the living room from one side... A mess, because we were rearranging.

 This was me and Tim dancing... because we were rearranging the living room.

And if you want a close-up of those possibly perverse and nerdy items adorning our fireplace, here you go.

My nerd is showing: characters above are from Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, and the creepy guy who looks like he's looking at her butt is from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.

And above is Ed from Fullmetal Alchemist looking as if he's trying to grab this poor girl from Lucky Star.

My microraptor was battling two Pokemon (and obviously winning), while Master Chief of Halo fame pulled at Pikachu's ears... Also involved in this scene was Bumblebee, and an art reference mannequin.

Bumblebee, my Lego Sears Tower, a Storm Trooper on an AT-AT gazing longingly at the Sears Tower, and the cat from FLCL.

After we finally rearranged, we had quesadillas.  YEAH, QUESADILLAS!

The only reason for the above photo being shown is really that it shows where the couch was.  There was a table back there with a computer on it, and the door behind that is where my tiny little closet-sized room was.

So anyway, that was the living room to our first apartment.  Mostly.  Basically.

Next up, bedrooms!
