We did also call them dressers. Although "dresser" might also refer to a vanity. Which also has drawers. Bureau is something I understood but wouldn't say myself. Furniture terminology, not so precise.
Trying to think what the furniture store called them when we bought our bedroom set. Can't recall. I think one piece is a lingerie chest?
I do not know what a highboy is.
Unrelatedly, I think my brain shut down two or three hours ago. I hope I don't have to re-do everything I did this afternoon come Monday. And now I really want some kind of cocktail but finding some way of combining my meager choices of spirit with at least as sparse array of mixers is beyond me.
Also finished the new Incryptid book
Wait, what? There's a new one already?
I have a dresser (short, wide, has 3 sets of 3 drawers), lingerie cabinet (taller, not very wide or deep, has 7 drawers) and an armoir (tallest but not as wide as the dresser, has two drawers at the bottom and cabinet doors at the top).
Cocktail crisis averted: I was able to cobble together something not too far off from a sour. Using an egg white that's been in my freezer for a year and a half. This may be a good use for those frozen egg whites as it gets hotter, very refreshing.
"dresser" or "bureau" were the only terms I knew to call the damn things. CoD was a strange new thing.
Oo! I just had a thought. Chest of drawers = like a chest or a trunk, but with drawers in it.
You can freeze egg whites?!
I think we used dresser and bureau most, but I had always heard chest of drawers, too. In my head, a chest of drawers is one of the tall ones, and a dresser is lower, maybe three big drawers with a mirror over it, but I have no idea why.
I'm trying to pick an appropriate sample of erotic writing in answer to an ad for, you guessed it, erotica writers. But I think fic has really colored my definition of what's mainstream erotic and what's not, though.

New as in came out earlier this week? (The last one came out a year ago, but I just read it a few months ago) Yeah. Half-Off Ragnarok.

Given the stuff I've seen...as long as there aren't tentacles, it's mainstream. Furries probably aren't, but werewolves are, so...
I've never written tentacles! So that's good ...
