Tom, some people you know are geniuses. I may have to watch that thing nineteen more times to savor all the performances and harvest all the taglines.
Too true. My favorite has got to be "The colors are colorful, and the arches are archiful."
Zoe: Don't think it's a good spot, sir. She still has the advantage over us. Mal: Everyone always does. That's what makes us special.

Whoohooohooohooo, sarameg! Congrats!
I did refrain from buying new sconces, though. I need to research that.
Hee. You should buy these that I have that are television sconces. They're constantly used on sets for some reason; Boston Legal, I think Psych or something else. I forget. But I see them all the time. It cracks me up.
Okay, I'm just kidding for you, I know they're totally not your aesthetic, but they're great!
Yay for drama free, Matt.

The status is NOT quo.
Woo! Congrats, Sara!
Also, Tom, that may be the most fantastic thing I have ever seen. "They're taking away by Asianity." HA!!!

Those are nice, but you are right, I will go for something more vintage. One thing I want to do is match the baseplate footprint. So I don't have to match paint and plaster and the wall texture pattern thing. Two are 5" diameter and the other two (the hard two) are 4x8" with the corners lopped off, so I might have to go bigger.
They're old (you know I like that) but just too fussy. I saw not-old ones like them in the store, but I can't find them online. Mine(!) are old brass, but...just too too. Remind me of grandmas. I think I might like something in a dark metal, or black/wrought iron, because I've got a lot of that and I like the look.
Chandelier shocked me. OK, buddy, ON THE LIST. It's likely a loose wire, I've been shocked by many an old lamp. Again, it is a little fussy. But I can take my time.
In the meantime, paint.
I smell like the house. It is disconcerting. It's just that closed up musty old house smell.
I plopped CFLs where-ever there were missing bulb. You know what? First floor ceiling is going to make me crazy. Oh well, I can plot to remedy it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It is really ridiculous how much Drew Barrymore looks like Little Edie Beale in that older makeup. In the ads, at least.

no lavendar sink, I looked, but LOTS of white rectangle ones, and I am guessing they might be interested in your pink one.
