They look FANTASTIC. And I’m so happy to finally have them up…most importantly because this “art cluster” hides a giant grey metal switch box in my living room wall that I’ve been staring at angrily for the last six months. Yea for art on walls!
I also made a massive list…not of resolutions, but of priorities for 2008, and there were so many things I wanted to make sure I do this year that I broke the list up into sections (work/art, job, health, money, house, and fun). Onto each of these categories I put a bunch of things I want to accomplish this year and more importantly where I think my priorities should be on a daily basis (funny…tv did not make the list…at all). Anyway, house has by far the most things on the list, although if I just get up and do it the “house” items are also the easiest to accomplish, so that is good. Already two things (hanging those pictures was number one) have been accomplished…so that’s not too bad for January 3rd right?

You’ve obviously never tried plumbing. One of THE worst tasks for a homeowner. And I didn’t think people in NYC had houses? Don’t you all just live in cramped apartments and condos?

yeah, i probably should have specified that most my “home improvements” in life are relegated to cosmetic changes (painting, hanging, installing shelves, etc.) and building furniture (go Ikea! yuck). Since I’ve been a renter all over the place and never yet a homeowner there is little opportunity to have to do something horrible like “plumbing”.
i do tend to call my apartment my house. i don’t know why. it could just be residual from growing up in one for the first half of my life, or maybe it is just wishful thinking that makes me feel better about my apartment. except for the four flight walk up my apartment is actually awesome though…almost house-like in it’s awesomeness

I’m beaming.

good. they really do look great. and it makes the house (apartment) really look more finished somehow without that blank wall and horrible grey box…
