Cooper and Ali’s Wee (Yet Wondrous) Cool Small Space on Apartment Therapy…Vote for us!
Only three days to vote!…Apartment Therapy has chosen our 502 square foot place for their Cool Small Spaces Contest and now we need some voters. Our space isn’t that cool, but I think because we don’t have any square walls and very little actual consistent wall space (without doors or windows) it is pretty cool. We entered the contest because we are trying to come to terms with actually liking a small space. Although there are a number of cons, we are trying to embrace the pros.
To vote you have to click on the comments field in our posting, then register. Don’t worry…they just want basic info, not your unborn child.

At a very young age I lost site of my mom in a local grocery store in Boulder, Colorado. I did, however, have the smarts to go to the customer service counter. The kind woman at the counter asked "What is your name little girl?" My reply: "Assi." The woman gave me a look like, "Are you playing with me you little devil?" but she proceeded to blast on the loudspeaker the "We have a lost Assi at the front of the store." Customers throughout the store gagged and giggled, but my mom knew exactly who the woman was referring to: the mullet haired little girl with a tongue too big for her mouth, wearing a leotard, skirt, tights, and jelly shoes (with florescent green laces in them...even though they didn't need the laces). A shy little character for whom every little detail in life was a huge thing. I am pleased to report that today I am able to fully pronounce Allison (aka Ali), but the Assi pseudonym has always stuck, evolving into Aszi. As for the shy little character for whom every little detail in life was a huge thing? Some things never change.
