Guts's Profile

In college, I had a roommate that was afraid of the dark, so she insisted on leaving a light on to fall asleep to. Which meant no sleep for me. I thought I could never live with another person until my next roommate who was amazing and considerate. I share a 2 bedroom with a friend now and she and I get along stupendously.
Being alone is alright for a weekend or so, but when I am left to my own devices I start...crying all the time? It's weird.

My boyfriend and I cook in every Valentines day. This year we made Pad Thai, which was good, but not restaurant perfect. I'm usually a bully in the kitchen, so I let the bf be the chef and I just helped out. It really gave him more cooking confidence.

Love #9. Recipes are a great way to teach yourself how to cook, but they're really more like training wheels. I tell people "improvise! Trust your gut!", but it's really not helpful for people who don't have techniques down yet. (I just end up making people feel inadequate)

If you have REALLY curious friends, try http://theevolutionstore.com/ (also if you live in NY, it's worth a trip to the actual store, great hide rugs)

If you need just skulls there is always http://www.skullsunlimited.com/
I'm a skull collector myself, but not everyone likes to indulge me. Good post.

What I'm wondering about #1 is how in the world they got that heavy looking cascading garland to stay in place! I'm always fighting the garland falling down. :( Also, is it just me or are there a lot of dead animal parts involved? Still love all of them, though.

I myself am a fan of the blanket dress. I just wrap a throw blanket around myself, tuck the corner under my arm and proceed like I don't look like an insane woman.

Me! I live with a female roommate currently and all decorating is up to me. she just didn't have much artwork or furnishings to put up, so basically everything is mine. (which I prefer)
My boyfriend and I will be moving in together shortly and while I am definitely more opinionated and picky and have higher standards, he has ample taste and I really enjoy shopping with him. I would really hate if his answer was "whatever you want, honeybabe" We're also both artists, and collaborate on projects together.

Real nice, but a little to "put together" for me. I like the quirky accents but I'm missing the color and the spontaneity of it.

I agree with a lot of people in that I really dislike these chairs. I mean, out of all the highly regarded fancy modern chairs, why choose these? Maybe I'm just being a party pooper, but if I had the money, it would be eases or George Nelson for sure.
