All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

"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

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.

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.

Well I know they usually look like an upscale furniture store.
But with everything facing one direction (towards the camera head on) it doesn't even look like a nice furniture store.... more like a Levitz Outlet.
It's a cool house, but the staging on it is really ugly.
