CatalogLiving

This one is kind of hard to explain. You know how they have all these pictures in magazines depicting like a cozy living room with all the products from the catalog? And how no one in the history of the world ever had a living room that looked like that?

Well, imagine if there were real people with rooms like that. Meet Gary and Elaine. Get to know them at Catalog Living.

 

At 10:30 every morning, when Gary’s rolled up all his beige paper and put away his giant compasses, he takes a moment for himself to sit in his favorite chair and do a quick “Mork calling Orson” monologue.

I defy anyone to watch this video and not get a big goofy grin on their face.

Quote Monday goes trick-or-treating

Evie: “What if a monster comes?”
Me: “Well, that couldn’t happen, because monsters are just for pretend.”
Evie: “Well…what if a dinosaur comes?”

Imagine my own daughter, using science against me!

Evie: “This is a book with directions to make a stairs. You need bugs or spiders to hold them up. Or else a broken window.” – I’d like to say we decorated our stairs for Halloween, but we didn’t. I guess it’s time to clean them up a little bit?

Evie: “My tummy feels like it doesn’t want the regular good food it usual has. It just wants desert.” – Well, it was Halloween night, who can blame her?

Evie, coming down the stairs from trick-0r-treating at a house: “You could just pick whatever candy you wanted out of the bowl, and you didn’t even have to say thank you!”
