the New Place

So I moved...2 weeks ago now.  I'm living w/ a family that rents out rooms ...all the men live upstairs (including the dad & 1of the brothers) and the women downstairs (so far it's just me and the daughter aka landlord).

They're a nice family. The ad was for an native English speaking woman...the daughter wants to improve her English so she can study Anthropology abroad.

So since I've lived here I've come to realize that girl Ivonne (who, prefers to be called "Neko" which is Japanese for 'cat') goes to bed by 10:30 every night. Not exactly compatible for this night-owl...apparently I was watching a movie on my computer too loud the other nite b/c I came home the next day to this note with a new pair of headphones on the doorknob:

also, I have a huge window in my bedroom that looks into the back hall/walkway/utility room where everyone does their laundry...it's fine except my curtains are basically white sheer netting..so everyone can look at me while i sleep.  Also, the Neko's room is kitty-corner from me so we can see into each others room all the time...ps, she has a naked mannequin in her window that always scares me (for various reasons, obvi.)

The other day so told me that she has tons of movies if I wanted to watch them...cool right?

So when I went to look thru them (in the living room) the other nite I realized they were all either scary movies, porn or a mix of both genres.  It's all just a little weird.

Also, there is a very smelly dog...harmless but smellll-ly. It stays outside but you can still smell it in the house.

Oh well...there's not only water, but HOT WATER here & clean pots-n-pans!

Ok, here's where I live in the world (for now :)



That's all ...gotta go to work!
