Send me a post card! Oh, how I do ever enjoy postcards.
Comparative notes on the new and old apartments:
Better
-It's bigger.
-There are no mice or roaches
-The lobby doesn't smell like a baby's diaper
-The ceiling doesn't poor water when it rains
-There is room for two in the kitchen
-There is a real closet
-The elevator doesn't have two manual operation doors
-There is no gang graffiti
-There are no warnings posted in the lobby about carcinogenic compounds within the building
-We have reserved parking spaces
-There are no gunshots
-One mile from work
Worse
-There are no children who want nothing more than to pet Oni and have him sniff their little faces
-There are no Ice Cream Trucks, Roach Coach Kitchens, Tamalies sold by announcement or belled wagons selling fried Mexican goodness
-I won't be practicing my Spanish nearly as much
-Rent is nearly double
The move was definitely for the better but I will miss Koreatown.
