I always hang art on the wall before doing any other decorating.
How? I mean, I have a pile of pictures lying on my floor because I haven't decided where the larger pieces of furniture are going to go.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Poking head to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is SA's birthday. Happy birthday, SA! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
It's also Darth's birthday. I haven't seen any posts from him in forever, but I hope the well-wishes find him, somehow.

I second ita's question. For me, art is one of the last things to go up. Right now, all my paintings, posters, etc. are propped up against the wall in the rooms where I think they might end up.

Happy birthday SA (and Darth, if you're lurking)

I love that image ever so muchly.

Nilly, I thought of you while paying bills yesterday! My total for the two bills I was paying came to $77.77. I thought, Nilly would love that!

What is even happening?
We have framed prints still in a pile in the spare room, because they don't seem to have a place in this house, they way they did in the last house. Ditto mirrors.

I bring you Bad Album Cover Art: [link] There are a couple of dozen. I'm still deciding my favorite. I was disappointed by the Village People one.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Jessica, was that where this column was?
Yup.
I in particular loathe the "Here is my smug little upper-middle-class life, but it's a universal experience! Really! I have just experienced something PROFOUND about love/death/parenthood! Really UNIQUE AND PROFOUND! Where's my Cosmo?" genre.
That's it exactly.

I always hang art on the wall before doing any other decorating. I'm not sure this is a perfect test, unless there's something about me that I don't know.
Yes, but I've checked, and you aren't a guy.
In my completely accurate and professional study, 50% of women will hang the art last, if ever, and no single man will ever hang art as the first thing unless he's gay. (But not all gay men hang the art first).
I in particular loathe the "Here is my smug little upper-middle-class life, but it's a universal experience!
Is this better or worse than "smug little upper-middle-class lives are so shallow " works, like American Beauty and Fight Club?
