Those who know me from around the community know that I hate large homes. I don't get the point of living rooms that could double as ballrooms, or bathrooms that seem like caverns. Perhaps this is because I always grew up in houses that had small, efficient rooms, and I currently live in a one bedroom apartment that measures around 570 square feet ( Read more... )

It was a combo consignment store/salon/tattoo parlor modeled after a now-defunct store my grandma used to love in my hometown. Pics from the finished Abelline, plus ( Read more... )

Not that I really want to use an extension cord with a surge protector. Gah. As it is, sometimes ( Read more... )

I love rainy days, really I do. But unfortunately, nearly half of what I had planned today involved running errands on foot. I got up after only being allowed 4.5 hours of sleep by Soren, who was intent on getting into the walk-in closet in my bedroom.
