look at the cute! fucking fuck your apt is adorable.

This is unrelated to your post (though nice apartment anyways) but I had a dream last night that I went to a Radiohead show at a club and no one was there so I was right up front and talking to Thom and he kept asking me for requests. It was awesome. I talked him into playing "I Promise" and then I kept trying to text message you to tell you about it. Huge dork dream but very amusing.

I keep my nintendo stuff in a yellow crate exactly the same as yours!

hehe!@ that's cool zach! did you get it at the container store? it was SO DIFFICULT finding a box that would fix into that weird deep space in my ikea dromme tv stand and i praised hallelujah when i found it at TCS! wahey!

Hmmm.. I think I found mine outside! :)

Oh btw, I just did a survey on that site, and I'm pretty sure I signed up correctly using your link. Tell me if you got any moolah!

great great great great kitchen!!!!!!

One of the most cozy looking apartments ever.

Your apartment is fantastic. Can I live in the cabinet, 'neath the wine bottles?

it looks great leigh! it's fabulous to see the finished product. speaking of finishied products... do you have a ladder a lil indiepop girl like me could borrow?

well, it's still not TOTALLY finished since the trim is still not done but i plan on doing that soon (maybe next weekend?). hm! we have a stepladder that you could borrow. oh wait. i think we do have a big ladder out on the porch (i think it's still out there), but i have no idea how you would get it to yr place?

i have a lil step ladder (3 steps) but even on that step ladder i'm not tall enough to reach the ceiling. :-/ Hmmm... I think maybe Janie has a ladder. Maybe. I want to paint my bedroom next week (since I'm *NOT* going to London) but uh... need to be able to reach to the ceiling.

you can probably use our stepladder (that is like a 5 or 6 step, i think). that i can definitely get to you in my car. i just have to check with ginny to see if she needs it for anything (since it's hers).

oh that'd be lovely. can you ask her? i'll bake her brownies or something.

You can take it, and you don't even need to bake me anything. Although, I won't turn away brownies.

yay! brownies in exchange for your step ladder! yay yay!

now though... i have to determine what color to paint my bedroom. Hmmmm.

HOORAH THE KITCHEN!

I'm glad you got everything done, especially with painting (finally). When was that done? It's a good feeling to get things done. Especially good to know that you live in such an amazing place! I'm so jealous of that kitchen table & chairs (because colorful things are amazing to me).

it's actually still not done (ie. the white trim), but i plan on doing that soon, maybe next week sometime. then i will tackle MY ROOM! mwahahahahah.

Such a great kitchen!!! I love it!!! Hey... I am going to see the Crystal Skulls in about a week or so, I will tell you how it went!!! I don't think that Yuuki is singing?

wahh? you'll have to give me an update *and take pics if allowed?

So much IKEA! We have the same sofa (mine's black though) and the same rack in the kitchen (ours acts as a boozeholder; eff pots and pans!) I needs to get me a couple of those bookcases for my cd's.

I love the colors, Leigh. It feels so warm and comfortable. And full of music. EVERYTHING IS MUSIC!

I <3 IKEA!

The baker's rack in the kitchen may or may not be IKEA. I bought it off some ppl on Craigslist, so I don't know. They didn't advertise it as being an IKEA baker's rack, but it could be? BILLY bookcase is awesome. I am going to buy the skinny one to put in between the two for all of my soundtracks/compilations. I also like (as you can see) mixing and matching the metallic grey shelf colors with the white shelves. :)

MICHAEL, SERIOUSLY, please come visit me sometime! Flights are SUPER CHEAP and simply put, WE WILL GET ALONG FAMOUSLY! PULP SINGALONGS ON THE DANCEFLOOR!

very cute! i wish i could paint in my apartment! where do you live, anyway?

our lease had a rider attached to it that specifically said we could not paint the apt, but i had spoken with them before about painting and we agreed that we would paint as long as we paint it back to the off white before moving out. i think i might paint my bedroom soon: pink and grey. it looks really good in my mind. we'll see. i live in wicker park/uk village (whathaveyou), one block east of damen & division.

:) that's very fun!

AW! that looks exactly how i would picture an apartment of yours to look! kinda like one of your webpages even! (i.e. color schemes & the interesting things you have). hehe.

i'm glad your apt is as ikea'd out as mine ; ) it looks great!

looks cool, you should have me over more often

i covet your kitchen leigh, it is absolutely smashing!
