Thursday

Well now. Thank you, DW, for telling me one of my icons didn't get imported. You even told me which one it was, so I could easily retrieve it from LJ and upload it here. Nice.

Cloudy and humid -- thunderstorms rolled through late yesterday afternoon, and then more thunder and rain early this morning. Lots of birds at the feeders -- Chango and I stepped out on the deck and were immediately scolded and fussed at by the titmice and chickadees. 75 degrees right now (23.9 Celsius).

Mr. N gets home from Kansas City tonight so must do housely things, so I'll be in and out of here off and on today, trying to figure things out. :-)

Mmm hm. Sounds sort of on the level of the mirrored flocked wallpaper in this one house where I worked. A '70s remnant, the current owners were not the culprits, but the whole house was just, just eye-poppingly bad.

And in fairness, the Sponge Paint Polka-Dots weren't this man's doing, either. And some of the house's wallpaper, he has ditched in favor of plain old paint and in a pleasant color, so it's not all horrendous. He just seems to have no concept whatsoever of "these things do not belong together."

I have a feeling he's probably not a very good cook.

HI MARE HI!

I'm so, so sorry you don't have coffee. And also, your client's house sounds a little like our house must have been, at one point--we found the wallpaper extras in the basement, and the previous owner said when they moved in it was all over the house--shiny gold and silver, with white designs in fleur-de-lis and such. Oh, and the white was fuzzy. GOD. NO.
