its not just the hair tho, but your smile (maybe along with the hair in that one pic) reminded me soooo much of her i dunno
your other pix don't but this one does
i wanna learn how to do that!

SammiJ said:

That's just so odd. I've never heard that comparison made before until this. Maybe we have a similar mouth though. Doesn't matter, I take it as a compliment.

minneapolisgenius said:

I am sure your house looks amazing ! Sounds very interesting, what themes do you have?
I so can relate. Especially the part about the matress and the white walls sounds familiar . 99% of the ideas for our apartment come from me, like when I use pieces of furniture for something they haven't been designed for, paint them differently etc. But my boyfriend has the right to veto . Thank God he hardly uses it .

Well, we have the 50s kitchen, the forest/fossil rock bedroom (green), the guest bedroom (which I call the "Crack House" because it tends to become the room where we throw all our crap) which is the "India Room" (mustard yellow/orange with fabrics and trinkets from India that is actually becoming the Rock Room because of its framed albums and posters the Mexican dining room (red walls, oilcloth, fruit, and Mexican paintings and mirrors), and then the living room is sort of Indonesian mixed in with a 60s vibe.

Oh and the bathroom is the Sly Stone room. The walls are covered with 45's of Sly and the Family Stone. I painted the grout in between the tiles in there metallic silver (God that took forever! ) and there's a small disco ball as well.

Sounds great , especially the bathroom

Serious said:

Well, it's not all THAT great. The bathroom is tiny. Can't wait to move soon though!

minneapolisgenius said:

Pics?! Please!

The house is an absolute disaster right now. I've become very lazy with cleaning lately. I used to be obsessed w/ it, but I'm just sick of our place now, that I feel as if I've let it go a bit. It sounds cool on paper though.

minneapolisgenius said:

So are you gonna change all the other decorations except the look for the hallway or will it be mostly adjustments to your new place?
And to the thread starter: I am sorry if I am a little bit off-topic .

Me and Lisa from a wedding a couple months ago....

Serious said:

I don't know yet. It depends on the house we find (haven't found one yet) and whether it's in the States or in Holland again. We might move to the States I think.

minneapolisgenius said:

Yeah some pics would have been great!!! But you must post some of your new home, I gotta see it .

I look like He-Man?

minneapolisgenius said:

Within the context of perfect facial symmetery, toned physique, and cheekbones you could sit, sleep or enjoy a cup of tea and a biscuit upon, then aye. You look like He-Man.

Number23 said:

He-Man's starting to sound pretty good then.

minneapolisgenius said:

She-Ra's a better choice, really. Still a frustrated repressed closet case animator's personification of human perfecton, only with boobs.

Number23 said:

I loved that show.

minneapolisgenius said:

Me too. I found a huge roll of strange material (like carpet underlay but..not) when I was wee in my granny's house and cut out He Man's clothes out of it, the kind crossed dungaree thing he wears. I can really only remember seeing the last hope I'd make him proud drain from my father's teary eye when I paraded downstairs like it was the greatest thing. I made Panthro dungaree things from that roll of stuff too, but that's another story.

Number23 said:

And you sew too!

Pics though?

I was eight! I know you've been living in Amsterdam, but Christ.

Number23 said:

Oh. I thought this was last month or something.

minneapolisgenius said:

well, that's the Panthro story.

Number23 said:

I don't even know what Panthro is, but pics?

minneapolisgenius said:

Panthro was the BA Baracus of the Thundercats, a typically 80's ignorantly racist notion of a black man who is musclebound, short-tempered and good with machines - especially cars and trucks. Even though he was purple, his voice and badass demenour were total hood.
