The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

ION, there are worse ways to end a day than by drinking too much with Buffistas. Now I am in my pjs

This is very true.

We need to do that again soonish. Maybe -t and JZ and Javachik and other people I am forgetting can join us.

Our wings are not tired.

Yes, I hope to join you one of the times, Perkins. When I steal my life back from exams and UTI puppy.

Very Short Introductions

I love these oh so much. I have like 12 and I crave more. I'm reading "African History" right now.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

From "serial post," which got bastardized to "cereal," and further to listing pretty much any foodstuff.

Indeed. I believe the same process happened at the Bronze (*sniff*).

Oh, there is House and Dollhouse and HIMYM and I can't watch any of it for two weeks or The Girl, in her infinite not-being-here wisdom, will be annoyed. Strong. I will be strong...

sarameg, a bat? That's rather cool.

tommyrot, that's fantastic. Post more rapture craziness!

So I'm being visited by the insomnia fairy. I saw this house in the NYT. I love the design. I adore the plot of land. But the way the giant cavernous interior room is being used, particularly with things stuffed in the alcoves? Does it look like a furniture showroom to anyone else?

“Not dead yet!”

Holy cow! That is fantabulous!

Yes.

(I want that dress!)

Oh, yes

“Not dead yet!”

Does it look like a furniture showroom to anyone else?

Yes.

Part of it, too, is the overwhelming use of white with the punches of color in the alcoves. It's too stark a contrast, I think and everything is so linearly arranged.

But dang, the land it sits on is purdy!

My friend's live just down the road from that house! Their house was not 1.6 mill, however. I looked at the pictures thinking "If my house was being featured in the NYT, I would hire a interior designer."

Yes. But they always stage it that way. My uncle and aunt's house was in Architectural Digest and the basically came in and re-arranged/re-dressed everything to their liking.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I wouldn't kick that house out of bed for eating crackers, no matter how it's staged. Anyway, it's supposed to look like a barn, with a big central area and, well, stalls.
