There's no place like home

Article = none , personal experience


 Moved to a new place. Potentially the last place i will ever live in , since it's city of ottawa housing. Or ...maybe when I turn 65 they'll decide it's not a good idea for the old folks to live with the  young hoodlems.
   Anyways...looks like the old fridge was a wreck, so I got a brand new one. Even has the paper work still in it.










 My spot on the floor. I used to sleep in my girlfriends bed (when she was at work) and it was very very comfortable. And after a few days I'd get these awful back aches. Then for one reason or another I wound up sleeping on the floor, and my back ache went away ? Weird. A whole industry built on selling you mattersses that seem to actually inflict back pain on you. One wonders what the point is ?

The baby blue pad with the electical cable is a Heating pad, you lie on it and despite the fact that you only have 2 blankets you're warm anyways because the electric pad keeps you warm at night.







Counter space counter space, where art thou counterspace ? Oh that red cup ...seems to be taking it all up, not that there was much in the first place. Hmm...gonna have to get a table or something.






Ok , yes it's a camping chair. But it has a 500lbs weight capacity, making it far superior to all those other 250lbs limit fold up chairs (and me weighing 305 lbs last time I checked !)

Ottawa Boy: You live in the place one or two floors below the window with the ANASI poster.

Source: Google image search for "Catholic churches in Ottawa". Then a Google maps search for St. Anne's Church. Then a satellite view for the distinctive rooftops of the townhouses across the street from an apartment building. Then a street view zoom in for details like the crack pattern around the manholes and the height of the rooftops matched to your windowsill. Took me about 5 minutes. Today we are actually not so very that far off from that photo analysis device they had in "Bladerunner".

Your place is one floor below the ANASI poster but diagonally, not directly below. It's right under ANASI's next door neighbor.

Right under the one with the diamond pattern curtains. That's your apartment right there.

Nice. I figured blogspot would scrub the location id but I never figured on analyzing the view from the window. That's just nasty. Im keeping it as an example of intrusive technology.
