coarsette (joyce su chang of berkeley), who does great art, posted a short piece on how her boyf thinks she's nuts b/c she likes to sit on furniture. woman alive, i never thought i'd meet another. i do the same thing - use furniture for things what it weren't intended - and everyone thinks i'm a nutter when i do.
i do it for many reasons. i like to feel like i'm a primate. i like to sit on my heels, which most people can't but i find comfy. i like to use furniture not only as it was 'planned for' but as it is convenient for me and i find useful.
and there's this great feeling, maybe you know, when you're 'perched' on something, eye-level with the world, and your toes are curled over the edge of the surface and holding on. i love that feeling.
of course, i also loathe any kind of footwear - you know those people who wear socks to bed? freaks me the hell out. yeah, i'm talking to you, roomie. sock-to-bed-wearing freak. eww. what a creepy sensation.
in case you missed the eight thousand blurry close-ups of some random southern family's pets we are currently hosting, emily1 got one of them fancy 'lectric cameras for christmas. maybe we'll get some updated pics of me, and maybe some will be of me improperly using furniture. and not wearing socks.
prolly, though, we'll get eight thousand blurry close-ups of some random northern collective household's pets. (that would be our pets, in case you missed the obvious.)
