i can barely conceal my glee. have we got a chair? yes! metal and wooden chair, handsome and firm and what bob calls "noble". from a shop called circa that i never would have noticed myself. internal struggle: to get the striking green cushy chair? or the plainer harder chair with clean lines? afterwards we went to the florist to buy ivy. plastic. variegated leaves. small. to coil around the chair, comus's throne or proserpina's garden? going to plan a special delivery on tuesday. hah. somehow, this chair business really smacks of me. hehe. and von has got plane tickets, arriving in no time! we've got a food itinerary planned out already, and the rest of the time he can k.l.k.k. as he said. oh well. very sleepy.
