ryanreactsToday, after several days of contemplation, I rearranged the layout of the furniture on my wall. Starting at the hallway, the order is now: random table, snap shelf, wardrobe, dresser, bit of blank space, and then the AC.
The dresser and wardrobe are both big enough and heavy enough that I just cleared them off and slid them down. Shortly after getting them all situated, I realized that the outlet which is most convenient for charging my laptop was now blocked. Sigh.
Fortunately, I was able to maneuver the dresser so that it is now far enough away from the wall that the laptop cord is plugged in again. Eventually I could get a power strip with a flat plug and use that to charge my laptop and maybe a few other things, but it really doesn't bother me to have the dresser a few inches away from the wall.
Even more fortunately, I definitely have enough space to get a slim bookshelf someday.
OR, I could get a slightly wider bookshelf like that one and rotate the snap shelf so that it takes up less wall space (in which case I would only use it to hold comic book long boxes! brilliant!)
OR, I could rotate the snap shelf and keep it between TWO slim bookshelves!
I also installed a set of risers for the second bed, which created just enough space to slide both suitcases under there.
I'm not sure what my next big room purchase will be, but one thing I have just realized is that since the big suitcase no longer takes up any floor space, I could now put a small bookshelf where it used to be! Or perhaps a table or something?
