Day 18: Do you love your 'hood?

Why do you love where you live?

I love my neighborhood because it's within walking distance to my favorite:













At least four Thai restaurants (esp. this one)

... as well as tons of other restaurants, theaters, gyms, and walking paths.

If I could someday own a home in East Isles, I'd be the world's happiest woman. For now, I'm gleefully renting a two bedroom pad that's home to me and my fabulous roommate. Behold us in our natural habitat, making the age-old "One-eyed pirate" and "Duck" faces.

I've started up on Lent!Blog! It's been a while since I blogged, but it feels good. Thanks for the inspiration to get me writing something other than a research paper :)
