A bachelor apartment


Recently a lady friend visiting my place remarked, "My, your place is starting to look like a bachelor apartment." At first I thought she was complimenting me on the masculine decor and the interesting tchatchkes inhabiting the place. Later, I realized that no, she was remarking on the dust on the table, the magazines on the floor, the shoes in the kitchen, and the dirty sink.

And then there is the furniture. It is what we used to call "Salvation Army Modern". An old couch and chairs that looked dowdy when they were in my friend's grandmother's attic. Of course in this economy I have an excuse. It's hard times.

  1. Great shot. It generated an immediate burst of laughter from me. I came across your blog while "blog surfing" using the Next Blog button on the Nav Bar located at the top of my blogger.com site. I occasionally visit the blogs of others out of curiosity. I am always surprised at the creative manner in which people all over the globe express themselves. Thanks for sharing and keep it up.
