(The random-brain-dump kind, not the pasta kind.)
I cleaned out my closet this weekend and got rid of a bunch of clothes. I foresee a need to buy some new shirts. Anyone want a size-24 pair of purple suede jeans?
Why is it that I can go for ages seeing the same dusty surfaces and not mind it, and then suddenly all at once decide they must be dusted, never mind the fact that I'm in the middle of a conversation at the time?
I wonder if my landlady would let me repaint the living room.
Anyone got suggestions for good places to buy furniture? (Nothing imminent, just pondering.)
Eminem's imminent enemy is an eminent anemone. (Don't ask.)
I need to make slipcovers or something for the couch cushions, since one of them's got a hole in it. Where's Vern when you need him?
I'm great at coming up with plans. Why am I so lousy at getting up the energy to carry them out?
It's odd being a senior editor at work when several of the other editors are older (though less experienced in this business) than I am.
Loneliness. Bah.

I love stuff from IKEA, but the nearest one (until they get off their butts and put one in the Assembly Square Mall) is in Long Island. A bit far for furniture, but I really like their stuff. They do ship stuff, but it's EXPENSIVE! I like Jordan's too, but that could be becasue their Natick store is really cool. :)

But tell me...

Painting: Most landlords seem to be fine with tenants painting unless they think you're going to do a lousy job.
Furniture: Just bought some from Jordan's in Waltham. They were only slightly pricer for what I wanted than Bernie & Phyl's, or Building #19. I've gotten good stuff from B&P in the past too. (bernphyl.com?)
Anemone: Looks like it's trying hard to be a palindrome...
Plans: Yeah. Me too.
Bah: Boo.
