The same happened to me. I had a great apartment with a totally crazy roommate and had enough and gave my 30 day notice only to find I had been priced out of the city. I am not willing to go from a large 2 bedroom to a small studio so ended up in Alameda as well. I am constantly keeping an eye on SF, but have not found anything to my liking in 18 months. I can no longer afford anything except a studio in a crappy neighborhood. The Heartbreak of Giving Up a Rent-Controlled Apartment |

This is a very city way of living. This is how I shopped when I lived in SF. Saturday or Sunday was an all day thing. I would hit the Farmer's Market out on Alemany, hit the butcher in Bernal Heights and the cheese shop in Cole Valey. All worked me back home using public transit. I still do this in Alameda (East Bay), but I am more limited. I have a produce shop and a butcher, but have yet to find good charcuterie or cheese. Shop Like a Parisian Weekend Meditation |

The couch although a bit different, looks a ton like the Elliot sofa from Macy's. I have it in green and love it. http://www1.macys.com/shop/product/elliot-sofa?ID=475452&CategoryID=35419#fn=sp%3D1%26spc%3D441%26ruleId%3D53%26slotId%3Drec() Mia's Just the Right Size Small Cool Contest |

I love de Kooning's. So different than his artwork. It has a real bauhaus feel to me. Simplicity & Balance: 13 Artists' Bedrooms |

I do see their point though. Does their contract allow this family to sublet? In SF legal sublets are almost unheard of and if this is the case it would be grounds for eviction New York Rent Control Challenged in Supreme Court Design News 03.06.12 |

If this goes through only the rich will be able to stay in NYC and SF. I can guarantee that some 40 year tenants in SF will leave. The SF rent control is tied to the consumer price index with a max of 60% of the CPI. This keeps rents below inflation. Also, you get the interest from your deposit back each year.

I am in the Bay so I will have to give Straus a try. I also like Daisy which is just cream, no gelatin. Why Genuine, Local Sour Cream Beats the Pants Off Commercial Versions |

I am assuming a computer hooked to the TV. There is a mac (and I am sure a PC) screensaver that is a flip clock. It is on many of the office photos on AT. It is called Fliqlo and it is free. David & Christopher's Lively Vintage Abode House Tour |

I come from the world of mass communication and we had it drummed into us that there is no such word as towards. Since the original intent of journalistic writing is to keep things short and concise, and since toward has the same meaning, we were told to always use toward.

The Macy's Corona is getting discontinued. I wanted it, but wanted to sit in one before ordering online and the Macy's near me didn't have it so I went with another Macy's sofa that isn't quite as modern of a shape. Not contemporary, but not quite as modern as I wanted and I just couldn't justify the cost of a SWR or Crate and Barrel sofa for my apartment.

I may have to consider doing this. In my last apartment it was spelled out in the contract that you could not hookup a washer or dryer. My new apartment doesn't state this, but I agree. i have never seen a bathroom with enough space in the SF bay. My SF apartment had more rrom than my current apartment in Alameda, but I think it would fit better in my kitchen. Renovation Project Planning: Tips for Fitting a Laundry into a Bathroom |

You do not need to rip CDs to MPS. Rip them to FLAC or if on iTunes Apple Lossless. It is a CD quality, in fact there is no difference in measureable sound from the original CD and it takes up 1/3-1/5 the space of WAV. I have ~900 CDs of music and itr takes up ~400GB on a hard drive. How to Downsize Movie & Music Collections |

Do not buy an Ion turntable. They are very poorly made. Also, unlike a CD a record benefits highly from the equipment. Save and buy a decent turntable (Project makes some nice ones that aren't too expensive) and a decent cartridge (shure and dynavector make some nice inexpensive ones) and you will have much better sound than from the plastic Ion.
