the tulips on the table next to me have almost rubbery looking leaves, there are twists and turns in them and once open, these reveal much smaller leaves that look like feathers on a singing bird.
i pressed some button too many times recently and now I have a pile of fabric swatches sent to me from crate and barrel. the order confirmation screen looked like an error message, and so i kept pressing again and again and again... i received five or so envelopes. nice.
it will take a long time before i manage to get a sofa. (and it has nothing to do with the swatches.)
i only use tables and chairs and books and computers. there are no sofas or televisions in my house.
and i do not miss television, though maybe not having the flickering screen somehow makes me less chatty. i also stopped building conversations that depend on anticipation and procrastination...
there are so many incredible shows at the new york museums these days, I have no idea why I could possibly still be sitting at home...
have a wonderful day. well, it already is a wonderful day... just have it.

You know, sofas and TV watching are not synonymous. Near a window, a sofa is a wonderful place to lie and look up at the treetops and the sky. Or read. Or curl up in the sun like a cat and take a nap.
ps - the print has become very large since your last whiteout. (At least when viewed through IE.) Happenstance, or are you speaking more loudly to us? Just curious.
Okay. I'll walk my insomnia out of here now.
: )
hmm... now i will be looking into sofas I guess.
; )
oh and the font is too big?... is that on a PC or mac?
i'm curious about a lack of television making you less chatty.
are you saying that without TV and all of its examples, it's hard to remember how to converse with people?
this is very interesting to me. ;-)

Furniture/Font Person here again. I'm viewing this on a PC. I'm not complaining, just curious about the change in font size. (Intentional? Related to the whiteouts?) I know so little about how the other end of a blog works. (Slinks away.)
