this has happened to me at least three times:

just as i'm walking on to shattuck, a block away from the bus stop, the very bus i wanted to catch drives past me.

CURSE YOU, #18 BUS!

this happened today, so i stood at the bus stop and read. but it was chillier than i realized, and i didn't have a jacket. the occasional wind made the twenty-minute experience very unpleasant. it was balanced out by the pride i felt when i remembered which stop to get off at to go to berkeley bowl, and the smugness i felt when all of my groceries fit perfectly into one of my reusable bags. but then i had to wait twenty minutes for another bus, so i pretty much broke even.

here are pictures of where i live:

the awesome front of the house. the front door itself (hidden by trees in this shot) is pretty impressive, too. i'll try to take a picture of that soon.



this is the side of my house, and the door to our actual apartment.

Your house has theme music!
What ever happened to predictibility?
The milkman, the paperboy, evening TV.
Everywhere you look , everywhere you go (there's a heart).
There's a heart
A hand to hold onto.
Everywhere you look , everywhere you go.
There's a face
Of somebody who needs you.
Eveywhere you look,
When you're lost out there and you're all alone,
A light is waiting to carry you home,
Everywhere you look.
Everywhere you look.

what a great building! so cute, so SF. :) i can't wait to see more!

also i'm wildly envious of all the LIVING plants in front of your place. it's minus a bazillion degrees in chicago right now. i can barely keep my INDOOR plants alive.
