An Updated Look

In the past week I’ve gotten new furniture.

The old, cheap black leather stuff just never felt right – either when sitting on it or trying to nap. And there certainly wasn’t room to partner up on the sofa side by side with someone special and watch a movie comfortably. That meant the floor was more comfortable and spacious than the furniture – which in my book doesn’t add up.

So after a few agonizing hours spent trapsing from one furniture store to another, examining craigslist, and contemplating the finer points of the reasons to spend a little more on quality goods, I found two pieces that went together and will serve my living room well for years to come – not to mention the guest who ends up sharing movie night curled up with me.

The new chair and sofa afford lots of roomy seating space and gives my living room an entirely new and updated look. I particularly like the shade of olive green I chose for the dominate wall in the space.

Here I am sitting in the new dark red leather chair. This is one that you really sink into. It’s amazing and I can’t wait to spend a night reading something really good in it.

I’ve also meant to include this pic on the blog for sometime. From back on June 3 when I ran a triathlon. I was Number 991. So for posterity, here’s the proof.
