Have I been missing in action or what? No worries, I didn’t just sit here, pick my toes, and be a major slacker. Thing is, for the past week and a half my house looked like it has been struck by a hurricane. And not some half-assed F1 either.

Things really came to a head when my new furniture arrived yesterday. They made me wait for nearly 4 months—I guess they still had to grow the trees—but it was worth the wait: it’s absolutely gorgeous. Pretty as it all is, it also came with an insane amount of plastic wrap and cardboard boxes. I can now make my very own cardboard sculpture. Go me!

Finally it’s all coming together even though the mess is driving me stir crazy (I’m a Virgo. Need I say more?).  Still haven’t found the right painting and lamps yet. If you know someone who does amazing abstract acrylic paintings, please don’t hesitate to let me know.

I’m gonna be doing lots of cooking around here in the days to come. ‘Bout time, I say. But for now I’m just gonna sit on my new oversized couch that will take months to get even slightly comfy, and wait for this dinosaur egg to hatch.

Priorities people, priorities!
