Because books.

I think the floor's kind of cool, but I can't imagine it's not bumpy, which would drive me nuts.

Oh, I have hardwood with bad water damage (that I can't figure out how it happened) that someday I will need to replace. But even as I see other neighbors' floors, even with the shit staining job that was done on mine...OMG, I so prefer mine. Most of them have gone blond. Mine is a dark honey, and warm. Even with the damage and crappy stain and finish job, mine are prettier.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Calli, it does seem odd for the instructor not to have called when expected. I can't imagine there are so many students out there that he can afford to neglect one.

Yay! My new flight instructor called. Tomorrow we'll go over booking his time and, schedule meshing and weather permitting, Saturday or Sunday I'll have my first flying lesson!

ETA: Oddly enough, dcp, we have a surplus of student pilots right now. The head of instruction's been hiring new CFIs and trying to put them in contact with various students, all of whom have various schedules, so things have been a tad chaotic.

Dusty rose old lady carpet. It used to be wall to wall on this floor, until I pulled it up in the living room and dining room.

Did I share my pink colors here? Of course I totally wish they were named Blush and Bashful, but anyway here: [link]

they are in the pink section (duh) - colors "sweet pink" and "pink burst". Sweet for the 2 side walls and Burst for the wall behind the laundry machines.

I am all at once amazed and appalled by that floor.

I am appalled that it does not make words.

still going to use it as a pantry in the kitchen. It is going to be a tight fit, but will go near the table.

I would spend hours staring at that floor, trying to find all the words.
