IT'S ALIVE!!!

"Quickly Egor, throw me the remote!"
Okay, so that may be a pretty lame background for this blog, so I'll leave it here and carry on. That being said, my living room is finally actually alive.

While my Aunt Priss and Uncle Dave were out visiting me last weekend, they had the pleasure of watching me spend my own money. You might be thinking to yourself, "Big deal. You spent some money. Congratulations. Whatever." But to my loving parents that paid for my upbringing (a very comfortable one, I realized while I still had an unliving room), this is a pretty new experience. Such an exciting event, that it warranted a phone call from my aunt to my mother on the way home from the furniture store.

They were such great guests; they had no problem shopping with me. It actually worked out quite well for me. We went to Ashley's Furniture store again, home of "John," great cookies, and of course furniture. I have yet to meet Ashley... One of the greatest things about this particular trip to the store was the added company. As it turns out, when I walked in the store with more distinguished people, the stalkers flocked to them, and I was free to shop un-accosted. Then once I found what I was looking for, I simply had to indicate to their stalker, Nate, that I was actually the one there to spend money. We very swiftly exchanged information, I signed some papers, and the delivery was scheduled.

So my living room went on looking like this for a week longer:


I woke up this morning to brew some coffee and await the delivery of my long awaited living room life blood. Around 10 am, my phone rang. It was my couch. He was just calling to tell me he was on his way home. So now my living room lives:


You should also note, the wonderful quilt that adorns the back of the couch. It is none other than a Rosemary Benger Handcrafted Original. I've kept it hidden safely upstairs away from all the traffic until today. Now it too has a perfect home where I can see it daily and remember the people who love me. :)

Other news on the day? I officially became a Washington State resident this morning and I am renting a tv for a little while.



This is the part where I most ashamedly apologize for the scarcity of my blogs. I'm sorry. I do try to keep up with them, but I doubt you really want to know every detail of my daily adventures... You'd likely stop reading after you heard about subway for the 5th time that week.

I trust you are doing well, and I look forward to hearing from you! (That, in case you were wondering is where I ask for comments, emails, and updates on your life.)
