Okay, my hardwood floor fixation has gotten so dire I'm seriously considering moving JUST because I want hardwood floors that badly. I hate that my carpet and walls are the exact same color. I also want to move because it would give me the opportunity to design an apartment a second time. And, thirdly, because I am incredibly lonely living alone and am thinking that moving to a two-bedroom might work out much, much better--even though I would keep mainly to myself, just having another person in the relative vicinity would be comforting. Also, I would save several hundred dollars' worth of rent per month.

So, any Baltimorean takers? I make a quiet, agreeable flatmate, and I already possess all necessary furniture. :)

I think my current roommate may be checking out soon. I got worried about Nigel recently because one day recently, I picked him up and he was light as a feather. I always suspected one of my first two mice died because his teeth got too long (which causes rodents to be unable to eat--this is why you need to give them foods they can gnaw on--to trim their teeth) and he died of starvation. :\ Luckily, he seems to have gained weight back recently, but I know he's also near the end of the dwarf hamster lifespan, and I keep dreading reaching into the cage only to find that he has died. I don't spend a ton of time with him, but I sure am going to miss Nigel when he's gone. :(

In other news, I got a clothing rack to expand my closet space! I like to keep my living space clean, so having more closet space frees up my floor space (except for the hanger).
