Those Who Know You Best

I was watching Trading Spaces at work today with my boss - who also happens to be my mother. The designers were Kia and Hildi - two women I would not want working in my house even if they paid me.

On this episode Kia was doing a round bed in her really ugly room. I commented that Ikea had a round bed that I thought would be fun as a couch in my living room, especially since it splits into 4 wedges you could move around. Mom didn't say anything.

When they finished the rooms (Did I tell you Kia's was really ugly?) I mentioned that I would take the bed, which also rotated BTW, as a couch. I think it would be fun for watching TV and stuff.

Mom's response:


"That's because you're weird"

I think it is hereditary....

Which is hereditary; being weird, or recognizing the weirdness in me? ;-)

The former, of course. Take a look at your siblings, and their children...

OTOH, they say it takes one to know... (Who are they to say that; what is weird anyway?)

My mom reminds me that we are all dysfunctional in our own, special way. :P
