I'm getting desperate here for a piece of furniture to paint - I mean DESPERATE - as in I'm oh so close to painting the dining room table desperate ( which John claims would be the last straw ) - or the bathroom tiles desperate.
We still haven't picked up the headboard because when we were finally able to go the lady was playing hockey!
So only getting it this weekend ( I certainly hope )
So I was rummaging around the bedroom tonight - trying to get a mirror out behind a layer of mirrors while John was watching t.v.
John says - what are you doing now
Suzan says - I need to get that mirror in the back out
John says - WHY
Suzan says - I need to change the mantel
John says - you NEED to - as in right now - as in right this second?
John says - you just changed it couple of weeks ago
Suzan says - Yes, in fact, I do - I have nothing to post about -
John says - and only THAT mirror will do, right?
John says - would it have anything to do with the fact that I'm laying here watching t.v.
Suzan says - no it wouldn't actually - nothing at all - but if it's bugging you, I can always paint
the dining room table instead
John yells - DO NOT TOUCH THAT DINING ROOM TABLE
Suzan says - then I have to change the mantel
Suzan says - by happy I'm only shopping for it in the house!
John says - I told you we'd get the headboard this weekend
Suzan says - I need to do something in the meantime
John says - What are you going to do - tell everyone you have more than 1 fireplace
Suzan says - hmmm - I never thought of that
Suzan says - Nah - I want to keep this blog real
Suzan says - Why can't I paint the dining room table? It's outdated, it's
John yells - NO - STOP IT ALREADY - YOU'RE NOT PAINTING THE DINING ROOM TABLE
Suzan says - John - can you come here for a minute?
John comes into the living room and shakes his head
Suzan says - What? You don't like it?
John says - yes - actually I do
Suzan says - Good - ok - I just need to take some photos now...................
John says - Did you paint the mirror frame? Wasn't it silver?
Suzan says - DON'T TOUCH IT - IT'S STILL WET!!!!!!
Suzan says - I had to paint it - it didn't go with the vignette
John says - the what?
Suzan says - the vignette
John says - What the hell is a vignette? Is that a fancy word for a wine glass or something? ( dead serious - keep in mind folks - he is always dead serious during these conversations )
John says - And artichokes belong in a Kitchen, Suzan - not a living room - they fall under the FOOD category
( John's a genius - by the way )
John bursts out laughing - That log looks absolutely ridiculous though
Well in this instance ( and only this instance ) I think he's right
Yes, indeed, he was - it looks better laying down.....................
later on - I pulled the mirror down to bring it back into the bedroom
John says - WHAT THE.........?
John says - You just pulled it out
Suzan says - well it was never going to stay like that -
Suzan says - I just needed something to post about
Suzan says - And I think I'll have to change it on a nightly basis until you get me something to paint
Suzan says - Unless I paint the dining room table
John says -
Well you know what John says
And I put the mirror back - it can stay like that for a day or two I suppose
But I may have to do another mantel soon!
