QotD: Splurge Confession

These days people are pinching pennies and living frugally, but we want to know: What's the last thing you splurged on?

FISHEYE LENS. I don't know why I bought it...it's kind of impractical. But I did...and I'm looking forward to getting it :)

What was the bravest thing you did in 2008?
Submitted by TheFiercestCalm.

Left the old company to help start up a...startup? Very uncharacteristic of me, but I completely trust the people who brought me into it :)

QotD: See You Later, Decorator

nobody@vox.com(midori) — Thu, 26 Apr 2007 12:27:03 -0700

What is your home decorating style, and how has it changed over time? Do you have plans to redecorate?
Submitted by enSue.

okay so most people probably think this question sucks but interior decor is a secret fetish of mine (a well-decorated room sends my heart racing i'm so not kidding)

i think that i've always liked ultramodern decor...which ironically involves a lot of mid-century (as in mid-20th century) design (think eames, nelson, noguchi) but i think my tastes have changed a little bit over the past couple of years. the style i preferred before was very showroom-y (look at the dwr room views if you want to know what i'm talking about) but i think now i prefer something a little more personalized...although i haven't entirely figured out how to do that yet.

oh, and i guess i don't care for light-colored wood or mostly-white color schemes. i like rooms that are dark. like my soul.
