Zoe ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I have stuff up on my walls in a few places -- either where the furniture is final, or there's definitely not going to be furniture. That's not much of a dent.
Well, I haven't managed any calories this morning, but the vitamins did stay politely down, and I'm taking that as encouragement to go into work.
Is this better or worse than "smug little upper-middle-class lives are so shallow " works, like American Beauty and Fight Club?
Can I go with "equally annoying"?
I like a little self-awareness in my confessional essays, some sense that "I know other people have experienced this, but this is why my experience is different/more representative/more interesting". Not to mention some sense that "I realize that my experience is extraordinarily full of privilege".
I am definitly getting cool switch plate covers.
Replacing switch covers is easy, skye! The pretty ones usually come with matching screws, so you don't even have to hunt up anything but a screwdriver!
we got some really pretty blue lightswich covers at Target for our old apartment.

Unless they were originally installed by the same guy who wired Nutty's soon to be former apartment.
Installing the covers shouldn't be too hard, but there are a lot of them.
I'm not sure what anyone was thinking when the house was built but I don't have to worry about a shortage of outlets.
Replacing them is usually easy, except in a few cases in my house where the outlet was just sort of shoved randomly in the box. Here, it was taking them off that was the challenge, because more than one previous owner had randomly painted over the switchplates, the window handles, the window latches and, occasionally, the windows. I think of myself as the worst painter ever, but that is behind the prize-winners who've owned my houses.
I love switchplates.
I don't know why I love them, but I do.
The separate bedrooms thing could have been a cover story, or maybe one of them snored. I have no clue.

Sometimes it's nice just to be able to have a space of one's own for a nap or whatever.
