“Is there a tent in your living room?”

Filed under Home by at 8:14 pm on Apr 22 2009

I was out sick today from work. Thus I was able to take full advantage of the fact that my Sunbuster Shelter arrived from LLBean. It protects from UV rays, and I know that won’t help me in the living room and all, but I really wanted to practice setting it up. Immediately. So now there’s a tent in the living room. I ate my lunch and watched TV in it and it was so flipping great to have a little cozy home in my home… well.

Funny part was that I get a call from my friend & neighbor Joy this evening. “I was driving by your house just a minute ago… and I don’t want to be nosy… but is there a tent in your living room?” Why yes. Yes there is!

I proceeded to ask Jack if we could replace the second couch with the tent.

“I don’t see why not. But wouldn’t we then be the crazy people? Like, you know those guys with the tent in their living room?

“Well, if someone says that, fuck ’em.”

“That’s exactly what crazy people say.”
