I love IKEA with no thought towards the chaste but only when there aren't a lot of other people there. Or kids.
Sadly, my house was built in 1928 -- and has Spanish Bungalow charm coming out of its bottom -- but some of the fixtures were replaced in the 50s or 60s with Americana Blah. I have one left that I loathe. The wiring scares me. More than the boring even.
Huh. This is sort of the ultimate writer's good news/bad news in one place. Via an email from my co-editor...

Dear Contributors,
Seems like Amazon couldn't keep up with the demand--their site
currently states it will take 1 to 3 months (!) for a copy of LITG to
be delivered. Routledge is working on this, and we hope they'll have a
more reasonable ordering time soon.
Fortunately, there are some other online options that you can share
with folks who ask. The following links have my affiliate codes in
them, but you can strip these out and add your own if you wish. Please
pass it on. The book is a little hard to find, but not impossible with
a little effort
best,
Kim

We have a Powell's affiliate thingy on the links page, but not B&N yet, I don't think.

I want Gus-designed lighting in my condo. That sounds so...sexy.
This would confuse the hell out of my parents -- do you need her back?
I would need her back eventually. And isn't confusing parents fun??
Great news, Hec!
Personally, I am all about indirect lighting. The mini-spot into the corner of the room, the floorboard panel...
Gus is just trying to mack on all the ladies in his indirectly lit pad.
IKEA is great but far and requires larger vehicles than I usually have access to.

Teasing. DavdS is just teasing us, now.
That makes me a freak, doesn't it?
No, honey, not
that...
I love having a single and childless house. Mostly the childless actually, since it hasn't changed drastically from when there was another adult in my room. But I don't want to have to change my style.
If you must have lighting, indirect seems best. The other sort burns, my precious, it burns.
My favorite trips to Ikea involve the free bus and buying enough stuff that I can just barely carry it all home, for like fifty bucks. I was just thinking how awesome it would have been to get a $100 gift certificate from there -- I'd get all new glasses, and little boxes and all the miscellaneous shit I love.
