Wonder of wonders – we actually got a white Christmas in Dallas this year! Sure, it’s only an inch of snow but it’s enough to make things white and that qualifies. Click the pictures for larger versions.
Here’s my rented Prius in the snow.

Shots of my new apartment
This is the front of my unit – I left out the boring lower bit as it contains only the garage doors and my front door.
This is the front door – whee!
Don’t fall down them – please!
I just love the color of the cabinets. I have also been informed that my liquor collection will NOT be displayed along the top of the cabinets. Oh, well…
A shot of the living room and the entrance to the alleged balcony.
Look closely and you will notice that this is a real fireplace – no fake fires with switches for me this time!
Looking back into the kitchen – drinks will be served through this window sometimes.
Looking away from the fireplace toward the stairs to the third floor.
Not much to see here but a window.
The only thing I could get a picture of in the downstairs bathroom was the top of the mirror and the light fixture. Cool, nonetheless…
The stairs up to the third floor (bedroom, office, bathroom). Again, please don’t trip.
Another bookcase in the hallway.
The office is not large and is hard to get a shot of. This is the window I will probably put my desk in front of.
And the far wall of the office – with numerous corners and a tiny little window that Zaphod will love.
The window end.
The bathroom end. The bedroom is big enough to hold my bookshelves and a nice, squooshy chair.
Yep – it’s a bathroom.
Another view of the front of my place.
The view North from my place – up Ellis Street.
And the view down Ellis Street – roughly toward Deep Ellum.
And this is the floor plan. My unit is a bit different as there are windows along the right-hand side (the stair side) and a couple of bump-outs that provide more room (and cost me a hideous amount of extra money). Then again, I also get a street view for Zaphod – and he is worth it, right?
Works out to about 1250 square feet, give or take.
