What the hell?

Aren't I the cutest?

Amenities

Question: How close are you with your pillow?

Do YOU love it sufficiently to move it cross country? Or is it the kind of thing you'd be willing to replace?

I never thought twice about leaving my loved one behind. It's happened so many times. I stopped short at the (teeny tiny) Burbank airport when I picked Tricia up. She brought her pillow..

Perplexing. But I kindofsortof understand.

If you've been listening to my yammerings, you realize how impressed I am by the standard of living offered to those on the western seaboard. It's nothing short of amazing. There is no reason to suffer in a dark, windowless room (cough, closet) AND simultaneously be raped of your hard earned money.

You could be as happy as Tricia, seen here (2.4 mb) singing to her heart's content.

All kidding aside, take a peak at what I saw in Studio City....

Start with first impressions. Aside from the lack of bums on city sidewalks and/or bus stops, it was clean. Granted, Studio City seems a bit yuppified, but you get clean windows !

Alright, alright. It's the main entrance to the leasing office. Note the lack of kick marks, graffiti, bullet holes, etc. I challenge you to find a fingerprint. There's a water cooler for those hot days. Uh, huh. Right. I'll remember that the next time I am short 50 cents at a hot dog vender cart in New York.

Wait. Step back outside. Instead of dog poo smear and antiquated gum on the sidewalk ...
A bed of Cacti.

Loverly.

Inside the complex's humble walls you can find a gym, a pool, a sauna, a sundeck, a laundry room, underground parking and, um. Wait. Go ahead. Catch your breath. Let me twist the knife a bit. There's a dishwasher in her apartment. Madness.

Home of the Dishwashing Contraption. brb. And oodles of shelves.

But I guess even the amenity blessed still need their beloved pillows. See what the move did to Tricia :)
