SPT: April Fool 1 (Apr 06)

At thirty man suspects himself a fool,
Knows it at forty, and reforms his plan;
At fifty chides his infamous delay,
Pushes his prudent purpose to resolve;
In all the magnanimity of thought
Resolves, and re-resolves, then dies the same.
Edward Young, The Complaint: or Night Thoughts on Life, Death, and Immortality. Night i. Lines 417-422


When I need to think hard, I like to lay under something.



N.B.: I gave up on the rest of the March assignment because I went on vacation and my brain went on vacation too and I forgot way too many days in a row so March will remain unfinished. It's bothering me, and I may have to try again another month, but for now, I'm imperfect.

I'm too claustrophobic to enjoy lying under anything, but I like to do my thinking on the floor. Also, lying on the floor reminds me of being a little kid.

The little I can see of your desk looks gorgeous. I love Mission/Arts and Crafts furniture. I can spend hours on the Stickley website, but whenever my husband catches me he sends me over to Target, which is sadly more in our price range.
