Piano Man
The formal dining room of my house has had a beautiful antique brass chandilier and a fooseball table in it for the past year... That's about to change. I recently purchased an antique 1936 Story & Clark baby grand piano. I've been looking for a piano for about 6 months now and I saw this one pop up on Criagslist right after I got back from Rome. I'm pretty excited - I miss playing a real piano - electronic keyboards just don't cut it (or at least not the cheapie one I have!).
I'll use this opportunity to say I think craigslist is great, and as Chad has jibed, I am somewhat addicted. Its the whole feel like you're getting a bargain and "one man's junk is another man's treasure" and my general attitude that I don't really need something new, and in fact sometimes enjoy fixing something up or making it how I want it to be, that buying used stuff allows you to do. Ok, I should probably work on my english writing skills to make this paragrap make sense, but whatever, its my blog, and I'll go for the run on sentence, conversational style. Sorry Carrie :)

When you write a bad sentence you think of Carrie too? I thought it was just me.
I think we should start a "keeping bad grammar secret from carrie" society.
Mary, everything we wear is stylish...i mean, we did create "cheese shoes".
Robes will work.
Sometimes at work, people ask me if copy is gramatically correct, and I say, "grammar be damned - it's an ad." Then I say a little prayer of thanks that Carrie didn't hear me.
can i have a robe?
-mo
oh ho. I see how it is. Well, if that's how it's going to be, I'll just make my own society...the Grammar Guerillas! Yeah! We'll wear jumpsuits with delete symbols on the back, running around removing superfluous quotation marks on public signs and adding in missing apostrophes and commas!! Fear me.
Word, Aamir. haha.
