Escape from Retardo Land: Cassini moves out

[Cassini90125]

As I mentioned elsewhere, my camera is malfunctioning and needs to be replaced. I had several hundred pictures stored on it; most of them came out fine but the last 70 or so didn't. By a highly irritating coincidence, the date between the last good pic and the unusable pics that followed was two days before moving day. Revolting developement. Most of the unusable pics were of buildings and such, however, and they aren't too likely to have moved much in the past several weeks so as soon as I get a new camera I'll just go out and reshoot them. In the meantime, some of the pics were in good condition, so I thought I'd pass a few of them along.

Ichiban Restaurant:



I haven't dined here yet but their menu looks pretty dang good. The place has a good reputation as well. Not cheap but then again Japanese cuisine seldom is. Next door is one of the two Burger Kings in the area, which is cheap and is slowly killing me.

Across the street from Ichiban:



From the left: A Mi Go Market, Clothiers Warehouse, Monte Alban Mexican Restaurant, Abyssinian Ethiopian Restaurant, Venice Pizza. Like Ichiban, I haven't tried any of these places yet, although Monte Alban is high on my "to do" list. Their menu and Abyssinian's are available online; both are a little pricey but look worth it.

Whitney Pizza:



Best grinders in the area. I particularly like their tuna grinder; the flavor is excellent and they tend to overstuff it, so I'm guaranteed to be full for awhile. They're not expensive and they're open late, too, which considering the odd hours I keep is a definite plus.

The local Sunoco station:



Just down the street from me, open 24/7. Mostly I stop here for snacks and such.

No place like home:



My building. My apartment is on the ground floor, more or less in the middle of the building. The complex consists of three buildings, this one and two more off to the left that are identical. Nice landscaping here; two rabbits, usually seen only at night, inhabit the bushes.

And finally, my apartment:



Five rooms plus a porch, decent maintenance service, and no stupid useless neighbors who drink, argue constantly, play loud music, or set fire to things. The room with the air conditioner is my bedroom, where I'm currently sitting in front of my laptop typing this post and trying to decide what to do about lunch.

Enjoy, and as always feel free to comment.
