Until yesterday I never knew that a condition commonly known as “shelf envy” (or would that be “shelve envy”? Now that I’ve questioned myself that word looks really odd and wrong, have I spelt it wrong?). Anyway, I thought I would make your envy a whole lot worse (well maybe).
Here are the 2 sets of shelves in my living room.
The room is actually bigger than it looks in the picture, for some reason this always seems to happen to me! Please excuse the dead flowers in the vase, they were alive until recently I swear.In other news (hehe), if you follow me on Twitter you’ll know that I had trouble sleeping last night…and I hated it!! Finally got to sleep at 2 only to be woken up by my horrible alarm at 6am! This 6am thing isn’t doing me any good! I’m a groggy mess today!
My mom just emailed me at work:
Mom – How’s work today? Less fraught than yesterday?Seriously Jen, what kind of child (grown-up child) asks their parents to have another baby just to fill a miserable gap in time?? Seriously! Why doesn’t this thought fill me with dread like it would any normal person?
Me – Work is horrible and N’s husband has just lost his job because AVX is closing down and shipping themselves to Czech. Couldn’t you get pregnant or something to bring a bit of joy to the ever so depressing world?
Mom – I think I’ve already done my bit for the world population expansion programme!

Talk about a laugh out loud post. Clearly we'll excuse for asking your mum to get pregnant based on no sleep and a bad day. Now let's never talk about this again lol x
Look how pretty that is :) You're a nice room arranger :D
Lol...I hardly remember writing this I was soooooo tired this morning. Perked up a little now because it's SUNNY AND WARM!! Whoop! Anyway, I shall post my picture for the challenge a bit later - I think it's "outside my front door" or something similar.
You are such a rock star!
not one guitar but 2?
awesome.
Yeah, I'm sh*t hot at it too! Ok, maybe not so much - but I have the drums as well and I'm pretty good on them (unless I get distracted and then it all goes bad!). It's all about the perseverance apparently! At least I'm trying lol (the excuses just keep on coming!). I'm better on the wii fit! x
What a great room! Very nice!
Hmmm...maybe YOU should get pregnant :)
Thanks SB.
Hmm...Civilian...I'm not thinking that's such a great plan! how about you have one? Hehe x
haha! this post made me laugh!
hmm...goodluck with the better sleep tonite...i had the same problem...4 hours of sleep sucks the big one.
(and do not worry, now that I'm in a relationship again I wont go MIA-:D)
p.s.- i love how many books you have! I have stacks of em in my apartment- i need to put up some shelves. ;P Any must reads?
Hey Larissa - go to my "I heart smut" label and I've listed a few books!
I can guarentee with kids your shelves won't look like that!! Even if they are more of your moms kids.
PJ - but I am a child! x
