Movin' on up...

God, work is so slow today. Molasses ain't got shit on this place. Ugh.
In the meantime, I've taken to daydreaming about how I will decorate my next (teeny tiny) bedroom while thinking of ways to convince my future roomie/landlady to let me paint it up.

Here are the deats:
1. The room is microscopic. Like, maybe 10x10? Maybe? On a good day?
2. It's in the basement (i.e., no windows. Mega booo).
3. The closet is pretty darn small too.
4. The current carpet is begging, just BEGGING, for me to throw down some sort of awesome amazing rug to warm it up.
5. I can't remember if there's an overhead light....oh dear.
So, while it's currently a bland white box, I'm thinking it needs some serious light colors like this:
-
Gentle Butterfly by Benjamin Moore
-
-
Dolphin's Cove by Benjamin Moore
-
-
I'm really rooting for the Gentle Butterfly despite the douchey name/mega femme feel. I think it will lighten that janx up and make is sparkle in all its gloomy basement glory. Also, my current room is pretty much exactly the color of the Dolphin's Cove, and I feel like I might be over that.

(Not-so) Secretly, I wish I were just moving into a room like this.
Those windows are my babies. And the ceilings are my baby's daddy.

Hmm, maybe I'll just have a cute little window like this with some sweet ass cherry blossoms and matching blue and pink paint scheme. Why? Because I'm awesome.

Points of interest: AMAZING AWESOME MIRROR; bleachy wood cabinets; pink, multicolored pillows on the kitchen chairs; delicious vase of flowers; 'Keep Calm and Carry On' poster peaking its way in; bowl of lemons/limes; chandelier reflection; etc...
-

-
Amazgasm glitter shiny bathroom wall tiles.
-

-
Magical swan faucet. Golden.

Anyway. There's another mandatory happy hour from 4:30-6:00 today at work. Then off to sign a lease/pack up shit at my current house/water my tomato plant because it gave me my FIRST BABY MATER YESTERDAY YESSSSS!!

Here's to surviving the heat/ozone hellzone!

Pants-Pooping Excitement!!

I want to be in this picture ASAP:

Look at those greys! And blushes! And the curved spouts! And that effing mirror!!
--
Ugh, or this one!! The chandelier! The floor-to-ceiling curtain! The silvery wallpaper! Oh dear, serious heart palpitations...

This one's next. Look.At.The.Ceiling. Lovess it! And those huge windows are making me feel very excited...shag rug, delish white sitting chair, and ginormous mirror seriously not helping...

Ok, so it's pink, whatevs, but the molding/paneling/whatevs it's called is saweet too. Plus, digging the blinds.
--

--
I think I need to go digging in the woods to uncover old buckets/jars/pitchers, then align them on a rusty old table and plop a flower/some bath beads to feel seriously at home. Trashy chic hells to the yes.

Ok, enough of that. These aren't even my favorite bathrooms. Just a little Friday fav action for you. Thank god it's the end of the week...if only spring would decide to return and I could continue wearing flops/tanks and fantasizing of quitting my job and running off to an island somewhere. That would be oh-so nice right about now. BUT exciting, finger-crossing news: ultra light natty blonde coming my way! Tonight! 7:00/8:00 Eastern Time.

Can NOVA handle it? Only time will tell...
