Hot and cold running rooms

For some odd reason, 10:30am is not a good time to take a shower in my building. I'm beginning to suspect all the people who took theirs in the previous several hours might have used some of the hot water.

Curioser and curioser. Anyway there's not any now.

Reason number seventy-million why I need a new apartment.

Actually in a couple of hours I'll be looking at one on Mott and Houston. There was nobody there when I went by last week on Thursday, but one of the residents assured me that somebody shows the place on Wednesdays.

He also assured me that the reason this apartment in prime downtown Manhattan has been on the market for three months is because it's tiny and cramped and tucked right next to the noisy Rialto restaurant.

I'll be having a look at that place, but I'm more interested in the room upstairs, 1D. The same helpful tenant told me that room has been under construction for a year or so, but if they get it cleaned up it would be a perfect little spot. Bathroom, bedroom, study, kitchen area. Amazing view of tree-lined Mott Street just south of Houston through its two rather generously-sized windows. The view from the roof was even more inspiring.

I'm not in any position to actually sign for a new apartment right now, but this is all part of making that happen.
