I finally got a decent digital camera, so for those of you who want to know what my apartment looks like, here it is.

Swordage! Just inside my apartment door. My dad originally made the rack for me to hang my bows from, but really, I think it works much better this way. Don't you?

Living space When you've got a 500 square foot studio apartment, you gotta do what you can with your space. I sleep in the loft. The kitchen is through the doorway on the right. The telly is under the stairs to the loft, and the bathroom's behind all this lot.

Desk My desk and my bookshelf- there will be a second bookshelf shortly, once I paint the darn thing and get it assembled. I still have way too many books to be strictly healthy.

Bathroom Look, it's got a wooden ceiling! ... well, *I* like it that way...

Looking down from the loft That's my dining table on the left and my couch up against the wall. The detritus on the table is, er, my electronics stuff; I'm teaching myself electronics from a book and feel no need to clean up between sessions.

Eh, I'm not really a sword person. I like my bows better- the Hoyt Custom Pro recurve, the fifty pound hickory longbow from Woodcraft, the lemonwood Woodcraft bow that's probably older than me because bow-quality lemonwood comes from Cuba so the thing is probably pre-embargo, the other three or four longbows I own but don't shoot on account of their age... They'll be going up high on the walls once I get a ladder to use for that specific purpose.

so the swords are just because all bowpersons carried a sword just in case the other guy got tooo close?

Got it in one. I really only wanted the short member of the Japanese pair, since archers usually stuck to shortswords in the West, but hey- for $20 at the scratch & dent bin, I'm not going to argue with a free katana. The Chinese one is because I really liked the look of the Chinese broadswords in Iron Monkey.
