i treated myself to a papasan chair and ottoman - wait...is it still an ottoman when it's not one of those that go with the nice couches? anywho...i've wanted a papasan since i was a kid and saw one at my cousin's house in jersey. they're the most comfortable thing! yay yay! so i finally gave in and treated myself since i'm working more now and taking 18 credits. i felt i deserved a present. :) now...i can read, knit, nap, watch movies/tv, listen to music, and think...all in the chair. so awesome. it's a nice "natural" wood color - meaning not the cherry wood (dark) color and the cushion is a nice olive green. it's so lovely. *happy sigh*

oh, and i took the bus to school this morning and it took about 25 minutes and i got to read on the bus. i've discovered that i rather enjoy taking the bus and not driving, even if it does take twice as long. i think it's because i get to read or just relax and not get all worked up about fighting through traffic. it's rather calming.
