Feral parrots might be the weirdest thing I didn't know about our apartment when we moved in. They are all over parts of the LA eastern suburbs, but I had no idea they would perch in the tree outside of my bedroom morning and start squawking at 7am. Good thing I have to be up that early most days and it seems that squirrels have kept them away lately.

This place closed 2 months ago. FYI.

We had pretty strict requirements for being close to transit, which in L.A. is pretty difficult to find. I considered moving into large corporate complexes, but was trying to avoid it. We found a 19 unit complex, two blocks from the train station, with brand new flooring, appliances and cabinets throughout. Although the outside is awesomely 70s retro the interior feels like it's brand new and being the first person to move in after the remodel is great! Although I sometimes sigh at the vertical blinds, I can't but beam every time I get to use my brand new stove or dishwasher!

Anything that isn't used up or too old to work still. I have leftover toiletries, makeup, nail polish, cleaning supplies, gifts (that I never use), candles, etc. I've always had a lot of room to store stuff and I am good at organizing, but I tend to want everything to be like a store always with some back stock, since I hate running out of things. I also feel bad buying new stuff for my home, if the current stuff still works i.e. towels/sheets/blankets/kitchen utensils. So I end up with like 5 of everything.

Ironically if I haven't worn something for a year I easily get rid of it.
