Crap. Merde. Caca.

What is up with the rentals in Seattle? Do they really think people are THAT retarded? I guess some people just don't care where they live. This weekend Paul and I visited about 10 places and every single one of them were awful. Not even worth the money! And rent isn't cheap. Right now we're paying an arm and a leg. I refuse to add Paul's left nut :)

But I do have to mention one apt. we looked at imparticular. They advertised this as a 1 bdr 1.75 bathroom "Penthouse" with over 1500 sq that "feels like a house". For only $1100. (which is cheaper than our rent now!)
So we had to see it!

Okay first of all, we had to remove our shoes (which was the fourth house this week that we've had to remove our shoes at!) So we climb up the stairs and the first thing you see on your right hand side is this huge living room. The "galley" kitchen is to the left hand side. So I liked the fact that you can be in your kitchen and watch TV from the living room. It had a nice little "dining" area next to the galley kitchen. And the window was facing downtown, so you had a "peek-a-boo" view of the city. haha. Anyway, so you walk down this really narrow hallway right into a small bathroom. You turn to your left and walk down a tiny area/hallway where there's a door leading to the master bedroom. On the left hand side before you get to the bathroom is the w/d, in this closet like space. Anyway, so you walk in the HUGE master bedroom and what's in there? A huge jacuzzi tub/spa. HAHAHAHA. It was straight out of the 70's! It reminded Paul and I of pictures of the Poconos! I mean this room was huge. And there was a big closet in there. But seriously, a huge jacuzzi tub and shower! And the bed was right next to it! It was hilarious. There was also a toilet! And two side by side vanities. So basically it was a huge ass bathroom with a bed in it! And that was the bedroom! Oh my gosh. Paul and I laughed so hard! So we dubbed it the "porno penthouse". It was something straight out of Boogie Nights. 70's vibe and all. It was great man!
When we came out of the bathroom w/ the bed in it..there were like six other couples in the apt. We felt like we were at an art exhibit, rather than viewing an apt. The funny thing is, Paul and I hung out for awhile. Even knowing we were definitely NOT taking it, we just hung out. Hilarious!

This will always be stored in my rolodex of memories.

Tomorrow I hope we see something better. Because this weekend it was rediculous how bad these places were.

Here's a pic of the bathroom/bedroom.
