The Bed's Too Big Without You...

The  Post Apocalyptic Bohemian Readers' Poll won out & we took your suggestions & opted to use the Husband's upholstered chairs in the tiny dining room, a favorite spot of daddies & dogs. The tiny 90 square foot room sees little use for the consumption of food & drink (we eat in front of the TV in the back room, & the dining room rather serves as a front sitting room). The room has the best light in the entire hovel.

When it was decided that we would use the Italian fruit wood chairs as night stands, it precipitated a domino affect & we ended up doing a thorough cleaning of the bedroom & the stacks of books.

Are you able to discern which side belongs to which husband?

This is the view from the bed

"I'm the type who'd be happy not going anywhere as long as I was sure I knew exactly what was happening at the places I wasn't going to. I'm the type who'd like to sit home and watch every party that I'm invited to on a monitor in my bedroom."

Andy Warhol

Tempted By The Fruit Of Another

Until Eurythmics came along, I am not sure if there was a band that had my attention in the 1980s more than Squeeze. Certainly from 1979-1984, they were my soundtrack for walking around Capitol Hill is Seattle in my cool new wave clothing with my new Walkman. Tempted is one of my top 10 songs of all time.


Paul Carrack possesses one of my favorite blue-eyed soul voices. I have his work with Roxy Music, Squeeze, & his solo albums. He has worked as a session musician with the bands: The Smiths, Mike & The Mechanics, The Pretenders, & Elton John.

He turns 59 today. I think he still looks dapper & sounds smashing.
