The apartment at a glance.

The opening on the right is into the kitchen, on the left is the living room and straight ahead is the hall. It's a typical one bedroom apartment. You can just barely make out the bathroom at the end of the hall. Behind the living room wall that you see on the left is what a normal person would use for a bedroom. Since I'm not normal, that is now a sitting room. If you look closely into the kitchen you can see a wall from here too and that's where the laundry room is.

Let's make a right into the kitchen first.
