Jason

Hey hon, miss you too

 

Jason

I am trying to find good gel insoles

on amazon

 

Sonya

I am trying to find a bedspread

 

Jason

you don't like that striped one?

 

Sonya

meh

I like it ok

I just think it is too much

no?

 

Jason

the one you showed me last was 100% polyester

which... the green one we have now is 100% cotton with poly fill

Sonya

k

 

Jason

so I dunno how it would feel

but is it 100 for the striped one?

 

Sonya

yeah cotton would be better

 

Sonya

everything I like is too freakin short

 

Sonya

I'm back to the JC Penney one. all cotton

but I think I like the red one better. It's cheerier, and it would layer with either of the ones we already have

 

Jason

link?

Jason

so you don't like the neutral?

I just worry the red isn't going to look good against all that dark wood. we don't really have a lot of red anything.

 

Sonya

the quilt we already have with the birds on it has the same colors as this - some read, some blue, brown, green, coral

the neutral one - oooo is that what you meant by the 2nd one?

I could live with that

and yeah actually I think that would look better with the sheets

I didn't even really look at that one before

 

Jason

yes that is the one I meant by second. Sorry didn't remember thename.

it isn't cool like the blue/green one, but not as bright as the red one

 

Sonya

I see now

 

Jason

but if the red ones will make you happy, then get them.

 

Sonya

nah

now I like the neutral better haha

 

  

 

Sonya

hmmmm now I like red

 

 

how do you still love me

 

Jason

I think to myself, "What would Jesus do"

 

Sonya

omg you just almost made me spit protein shake all over my computer in the middle of class.

 

 

No, Jason, You Cannot Just Draw Boobs

My spouse is ever suffering, ever tolerant of my whims, indecision, general scattered-ness, and lack of ability to complete a project. 


Mostly. 


There are a few things that drive him nuts, and he is usually really good at gently but firmly talking to me about them and helping me get back on track. 


Example of his tolerance:  There is still a giant pile of mulch in the driveway I promised to move to the backyard.  I have stuck the stakes in the ground for the mulch holder, and that is where that project ended in oh.......November?  I'm GONNA DO IT!!!  I really am!!


Example of his intolerance:  The empty frames in the living room.  I blogged about them in 2013.  YES 2013 SHEESH GET OFF MY BACK!!!  http://thecolloquialtimes.blogspot.com/2013/03/yeahempty-frames.html


They drive him nuts, but I pretty much don't even see them any more.  I DO (really - I do) constantly look at pictures of frame galleries on pinterest and think about what I may want to do.  But I can't commit.  PART of the reason is that when I do think I may like something, I don't think he will, so I do nothing. 


And then today, we had the following discussion on the FacePage (My Dad never could remember "Facebook".  He called it "FacePage", or "MyFace", or perhaps the most accurate..."FalseFace")

 

 



OK OK I'm going to fix this frame situation.  ACTUALLY, I just last week hit the FRAME JACKPOT at American Thrift Store.  I bought like 8 million frames - GOOD, solid wood frames WITH GLASS and mats, for $48.  (Ok well 13 frames, not 8 million.  Same thing.)

Now I just need to take them apart, paint them with the miraculous wonder that is Annie Sloan Chalk Paint, put them back together, and figure out how to arrange them on the wall.  THEN I will be ready to put something in them. 

I mean, how long could that take?  Like a day?  I anticipate this whole wall art project will be done by the end of February at the latest. INCLUDING finding or making the art to go IN the frames.  Who wants to take that bet?

TWITCH (not the amazing dancer who I love)

There is a building in which I spent a lot of time. I will leave the name and location of this building a secret, to protect the innocent. The building is very nice. I love it. It is like home to me in many ways.

However.

One feature in this building makes my eyelid twitch a little. I point this out to people often, but they generally just look at me like I need to find a new hobby.

So please tell me, dear readers, would this not make you nuts?

Here's the situation.

The building has 4 elevators. Two on one side and two on the other, facing each other:

On each side of each door, there are beautiful marble panels. So 4 panels per side...

It's hard to get a good picture of the situation because the hallway is narrow, but here's an actual photo:

Now in this particular example, you can sort of see that panels B and C (the middle 2 panels) are mirror images of each other.What is harder to see, so you will have to take my word for it, is that panels A and D (the outside panels) are also mirror images of each other.

Makes perfect sense, right? It's pretty.I like it.

 

Problem Part I:

On some floors, panels B and C match, and panels A and D match, as in the photo above. On other floors, panels A and B match, and panels C and D match.

The fact that there are two different patterns at all makes me twitch a little.I mean why? Why have 2 patterns?

Problem Part II:

(subtitle: WHAT FRESH HELL IS THIS?)

On the 3rd floor, the panel pattern IS DIFFERENT ON EACH SIDE.

So one side has the A-B, C-D pattern:

And the other side has the A-D, B-C pattern: 

I KNOW, RIGHT?????

WHO DOES THAT?!?!

And yes, I am well aware of the EXTREME category of "1st World Problems" into which this falls.

Still makes me twitch.

 WHO'S WITH ME????
