My great-great grandparents house in Tennessee was a log cabin that became a dogtrot and then was finally covered with siding. So it started out as a one-room cabin, then a second cabin with a covered area in between was added, and then it finally became a three-room house with no halls. The parents and the girls slept in the left-hand room and the boys in the middle room.

Sometimes putting one nail color over another gives you surprisingly good results - I tried a lime green and it looked kind of flat, so I tried putting a holographic gold-green over it and really loved the result.

Tom found something uptown on Magazine, I think. I'll check with him.

They were quite nice, he walked in, they fixed for minimal (if any, I can't remember) cost quickly.

During high school, my BFF and her brother had bedrooms in the narrow attic of their house. Her bedroom was only accessible by walking through her younger brother's bedroom.

The house I grew up in was one of those organically evolving homesteads in rural Tennessee. It started out a one-room cabin, then another room was added and so on... It ended up as a central room with two rooms on either "end" and a covered porch on either side -- the house had burned once, and when they rebuilt it, they wanted every room to have an outside door. Eventually, one porch was turned into a narrow hallway, the other porch became a tiny room (like a walk-in closet with windows), a long kitchen/dining area was added when they got appliances in the 50s, and a tiny bathroom was added off the hall when they got indoor plumbing. So, ended up we could only get to the "front" bedroom by going through the parlor (no one slept there anyway, it was haunted) but we could get to the "back" bedroom without going outside. So, win. It was a charming house, but it was not a very live-able layout for a modern household.

tl;dr. I know.

The world's narrowest house. (Proposed)

"Let's tax property frontage, hallways, and closets!"

This is why our house has only 2 closets; all the houses in the neighborhood built around the same time are the same way.

ION, we have no internets at work today, so this post is brought to you by open wifi, my iPod, and the vending machine area. Come on, Internet-fixy guys, get here!

...I'm sorry, my head just exploded a little. Do you just have dozens of rolling racks & armoires, or what?

My last apartment only had one closet. Now I have three, and I still never hang my clothes up after doing laundry.
