Apartment Freckles, Cats, and the_xtina

Jul 03, 2006 08:50

I had a voice mail message waiting for me when I got to work this morning.

Uh, yes, I'm calling to see about life insurance and I was wondering if I was calling the correct number. I was given this by some guy on the street. It was on a cardboard sign somewhere just out of Chicago, Illinois, and so I figured I'd call up. Mostly I'm looking for ( Read more... )

My version of a tan is new freckles that sprout in between the established freckles until eventually the freckles are mostly connected.

I love this analogy.

Not quite as much as I love IKEA, though. I'm always afraid to go there, especially now since all the kids' stuff is so cute.

Oh, sweet shrieking Jesus, the kids' stuff! I don't even have a kid, and I could spend all day in the kids' section. I'm forever finding things that Matthew neeeeeds to have. Or that *ahem* I *cough* need to have. Oh yes.

I love this analogy.

I bet every freckly person on my FriendBots list knows exactly what I'm talking about, too. :)

Specifically, I want a full-size as well as a child-size version of this chair.

I know! Because sometimes it would be nice to be able to be in the room you want to be in but still be able to close in your chair and shut the rest of the world out. You're with people, but not with people.

I adore you, too. You so totally rock. I'm glad you understand the freckle reproduction thing. It's comforting to know that I'm not alone in that! :)

I had no idea what I was missing out on with the Ikea thing until I moved here. Oh my god. I could live in Ikea, I think. So many things to play with!

I'm so glad we're friends.

Reading your entries makes my tired eyeballs happy. :D

I love the "apartment freckles" thing. Is dust the same as personality? Just wondering.

trista July 6 2006, 20:07:32 UTC

I'm so glad we're friends.

So am I! *hug*

Dust is absolutely the same thing! It adds character, or something. That's why I don't dust as often as all that. I don't want to live in an apartment with no character. ;)

I should send you a postcard.

trista July 6 2006, 20:08:00 UTC

Absolutely! I lurve postcards. :)
