Damn Convenient
This weekend, Bunky and I are heading up to Pittsburgh to scope out potential apartments. This will be unlike any other search we’ve ever had, however, since Bunky will actually be pulling in serious dollars once her job starts. We’ll just be floating on bar loans till Fall, and then maybe we can rise above the poverty line.
So when you can afford real housing (e.g. you don’t look for $400/mo. all utilities included apartments in sketchy areas), all new possibilities open up to you. One impressive contender offers a gated parking garage and a fitness room on the same floor. Not bad, but not nearly as cool as the fact that it is built on top of a supermarket, and the apartment is on the first floor. Why does being on the first floor matter? Well, because they are going to put grass and plants on the roof of the Supermarket. So not only will we be right above a supermarket, but we will still have a lawn. WTF awesome (and weird)!
I’m just waiting for Bunky to tell me to call up apartments that are like dangling from trees or underwater in one of those many Pittsburgh rivers. It would also be fun to roll a Katamari over an apartment that was on top of a supermarket, and I bet I have before.
