  • Description: Because he had the full kitchen on his side of the apartment, I asked that he pay $100 more in rent than I did. During the period when Roommate #1 was around less and less, and I was preparing the space for another potential occupant, I opened the cabinet beneath the kitchen sink and leaned down to remove a tied-off sack of garbage from the red wastebasket. The apartment was immediately beneath a flight pattern to LaGuardia, and throughout the day, if able to tune out the street noise-bus brakes, car alarms, sirens, the general clamor-I would hear flights passing overhead, each an echo of the next. [...]he'd been among the prospective roommates I'd shown the room to almost a year before when I ended up offering the place to Roommate #1. Since they were both students, and with Roommate #3 having no school to report to in the city, one or the other of them was usually around.
