ita, Victor posted this on facebook, and one paragraph really made me think of you:

"I don't want them remembering what I had yesterday—I don't want them to remember me at all," 46-year-old Colin Cady said. "Just give me the goddamn half-sandwich-and-cup-of-soup special and don't refer to it as 'the usual.' No good-natured joking around, no asking how my kids are doing, no offering me a complimentary jar of homemade fruit preserves—none of that shit."
It looks like those floors have been under carpet, and I can't tell from the photos if it's salvageable.
Am I weird that I kind of like their crappiness? I was wondering if it would be possible to just sand a little and seal to preserve the look of the stains and wear. I really find a lot of beauty in the idea that many people have used things before I did, and all of their stories being preserved instead of covered.
In whoa news, today I learned that Erza Jack Keats (author of The Snowy Day: [link]) was not black.
I was surprised to find that out also, flea.

Maybe a little weird, but in a completely lovable and admirable way.

That's awesome, in the fullest and most reverent sense of the word.

Wabi-sabi!!! [link] And I'm right there with you.

This is why new construction homes don't appeal to me very much. Although I guess you could look at it as creating those imperfections and stories for those to come.
I defeated the Akinator with Jerott Blythe from the Lymond Chronicles, although it guessed Francis Crawford in 22 questions (after trying Jamie Fraser from Outlander first).

The look could be kind of cool. It's just hard to tell if it's sound. Some of the coloration could be carpet glue remnants, which will clean off with a lot of scrubbing.
I have the Rose Bowl parade on, but I haven't been paying a lot of attention. Did they just say that was the actual stuffed Trigger on the Roy Rogers float?
I SAID I don't hate America!
I'm not feeling you, not at all. I just don't sense the sincerity. Do you tap dance?
Meara, half of that article makes so much sense to me, I don't understand why it's with the other half.
Kat, that is somewhat creepy. It's guessed some pretty esoteric actors and characters, but I managed to stump it with Victor (Pug) Henry from The Winds of War.
