Accordian House

There are more slides of this house here. I love houses and especially interesting architecture so I think this is really cool because it's so different from anything I've seen.
This, however, is not so cool:
Anyone who talks about their own legacies, is a little suspect, in my mind. And "I'm not sure what I would spend the money on,"?? That's really bad. How about helping others less fortunate, for starters? Oy.
I consider myself pretty anti-clutter (kindly avert your eyes from my desk and my studio!) - but this place is unappealingly sterile. Some of the comments left on the article are pretty funny. "I once dissected frogs in a room almost identical to the kitchen, in a lab class at college."
So yeah, it would be a nice place to visit but I don't want to live there.

Yesterday around 3:00, I realized that I had not whined (internally) about my little broken toe once! I've turned the corner. It's not 100% yet but it's stopped hurting all the time. The first sign should have been that I forgot to take Ibuprofen. I'm relieved because I was wondering how long this healing was going to take.

I slept pretty crappy last night and it's all my fault. I usually do a little surfing on my iTouch before I go to sleep. Last night I realized it was just after 10:00, which is already a problem since I'm supposed to be asleep by then, if not earlier. So I checked the American Idol results. I'm a big Adam fan, but I'm very happy Kris won. They will both have nice careers. As a result, I feel like I had Idol-related dreams all night! Mainly I remember that a young man, not unlike Kris I realized as I woke up, moved in with my roommate and me. My roommate was a woman at work with whom I discuss American Idol. Then more wackiness ensued, which I won't bore you with.
The good news is that today is my Friday. On Monday I decided to take Friday off to give myself a 4-day weekend. Lots of "paperwork" to be done!

Apparently after spending all his money on the building, there was none left over for furniture or anything else that would make it homey instead of like office space. Stef, why you don't send him one of your framed pieces -- maybe he just needs some color and sparkly bits to perk the inside up.
These are my favorite comments:
·Are you serious? I must be missing something. The photos don't express much more than a corporate headquarters.
·That's a very nice looking office building (oops, I meant home.)
·Wish he had spent 25% and donated the remaining to Habitat For Humanity. Cold and uninviting.
And I say "it desperately needs plants and flowers"
