Well, minus the smokers. I totally would have high-tailed it out of there as well. Sorry you had to deal! Your first place sounds really nice, Atena. Well, minus the smokers.

It was a newly rehabbed, pretty spacious one-bedroom with new appliances and pretty sweet closet space. In a well-maintained building. And great light. That's where we lived when Stella was born. The downside: the downstairs neighbors that moved in were Olympic grade chain smokers with no sense of courtesy. After months of unproductive dialog, we had to move out. On moving day, I was in the throes of an asthma attack so bad I couldn't even go into the apartment. It was really nice, but each apartment has gotten better since.

VanHooters was there as well. You are correct though, two of us sat on kitchen(ish) chairs, two sat on the daybed (that doubled as our couch), and someone sat on a really uncomfortable desk chair. At the time, I could barely make a decent tasting marinara sauce, and yet I subjected you all to it. For that, and for the knee touching, I apologize. Red-It wasn’t just you and the ex.

Adorable. Hahaha…I remember that you invited us over for dinner, and two of us had to sit on the day bed, and two on some chairs…and I think we were still all touching knees. Adorable.
