Moving!

Mom and Glenn told me last night that we have outgrown our 300 sq. foot studio and have to move. Can you believe that? I don't take up very much room. I know Ms. Deb thinks I am F-A-T, but I can't have gained that much to make mom and Glenn want to move.

So when Mom and Glenn sat me down, I was simply surprised. Are we moving out of the Big Apple? What about Laika? What about my other buddies in Riverside Park? How will I make new friends?

Mom assured me that, no, we aren't moving out of New York City, or even the Upper West Side. We simply are going into what she called a "one bedroom."

I can tell Glenn is very excited about this, as well, because he said he'll be able to store his bike in a "bike room." Right now it's sitting in our apartment, too (in the entryway), and mom and Glenn are always tripping over it.

Mom also said that we are going to be moving closer to either Riverside or Central Park. I think I will really like that!

When they went out with Mr. Brad, the Realtor, they saw a ton of apartments. Some were big, some were small. Some were located right on the park, others a block or two in from the park.

They even saw one with a laundry room sign: "keep door closed: RATS!" That sounds like fun.

Here are some photos.

This place is right on Riverside park. Relatively large ktichen, tiny living room, and decent sized bedroom.





























Ahhh... but a DISHWASHER!





This apartment is in No. 9 W 73rd. That is the fifth brownstone in from Central Park.














In NYC, the size of the living room is inversely proportionate to the size of the kitchen, it would seem...





Now that is what I call a fireplace!
