I went to New York and all I got was an APARTMENT!

Yes, dear friends, readers and well-wishers, this is the view from my new pad on Manhattan! It's a huge, bright room (even with Missouri-standards. It's also bigger than the one in Hjelmsgate, so floor space is no problem, and I sincerely hope everyone is planning to come visit!), with a huge window and a super high ceiling on upper-upper West Side/Morningside Heights, just between Columbia University and the Morningside Park. It's a four-bedroom apartment, and I will share it with a writer/aspiring playwright; a student film maker and an Australian clarinet player, all of whom seem very very nice.

It's also close to the Seinfeld Restaurant, which made a certain Johnnie very excited.
