while watching TV last night, i saw this mcdonald's commercial where, for a split second, some dude was in a reception area with a groovy metal globe on the wall.

did i rewind and take a picture of the screen? yes. yes, i did.



cool, right? retro TWA terminal chic! anyway, i googled "metal globe sculpture." and i totally found it. six hundred bucks.



i suspect it might look better on a black wall as opposed to a white wall, but i am looking for something "interesting" and NOT square or rectangular to hang over the TV. other ideas: marquee letters.



cardboard deer head.



uh, that's all i got right now.

making progress

slowly but surely the apartment is coming together.
the living room needs to have pictures hung; there is an additional bookcase in the office now.
i need a desk, and i want it to be a retro shiny steel tanker -- but not the giant ones. single pedestal. working on it.

the bedroom is going to be the real challenge; we'll talk about that later.

well hello there

i'm back. no, really. i am blogging here again. mostly i am gonna talk about my new apartment. that's right, i'm getting nesty up in here.
