Since friends and family started openly complaining about me rarely updating this particular blog (actually, there’s only one person to bring the subject up, but still a complaint is a complaint and should be taken into consideration) tonight I made an attempt to add a brand new entry. However, due to lack of any note-worthy happenings recently in my life (I’ve become a victim of the home-office-home routine. Without any alcohol within my blood cells for more than 10 days. And (my) life can be very boring at such times), I couldn’t go any further than making an attempt. Then suddenly, I decided to write about curtains. My curtain-less life, to be more precise… I’ll be celebrating its 3rd anniversary this month. Life without curtains, which can be very similar to playing the leading role in a soap opera… Don’t think that I had the opportunity or any desire to star in one. One knows how it feels like to be in a soap opera through one’s watching experience.
The problem with my curtains, or rather the unbearable absence of them, is that I have a small house with big windows, an architectural fact that puts the curtain in a position to be the most dominant thing inside the four walls of my dwelling. Thus, I couldn’t make up my mind about which type, colour or any other aspect of fabric to go and here I am, right where I started 3 years ago, when I had the apartment repainted and redecorated with a totally new taste and threw away the blinds then covering the windows.
BUT… I have plans to visit a few drapery stores this weekend. So that finally my neighbours living in the opposite building can go back to their mediocre lives instead of keeping their eyes wide open to the soap opera called “me”. Not that my life is any superior than theirs… I just used the word “mediocre” to make it sound superior than theirs. Plus, I like the word “mediocre” in a sentence. As long as it is not used to define things about/related to me.
I’ll keep you posted about my curtain shopping experience. I’m sure, it will be fun. So, watch this space.
