My apartment has become infested with dust...even after turning it into a plastic-covered-a-la-Dexter-bubble, everything is still lethal to an allergy sufferer as myself. The worst part is that a deep-clean is futile since the windows still need to be installed...welcome to me hell-o-time-to-focus...So, what do I do when I am depressed and have crazy sinus headaches and hypochondriac delusions of dust-mites eating me piece by piece? I obsess over stuff that has nothing to do with what I should be doing!! So, welcome to my dream world, brought to you by the letter P for procrastination, A for allergies, the number 1 (as in the last day of my 'vacation') and the oh-so-glorious world of
Mid-Century Modern Chairs and EBAY...
Now here is a true
Eames beauty!! Sigh...
Perhaps my next obsession will be making a
FLICKR MOSAIC of Eames Chairs...hmmm
Is it sick that this picture makes me gooey and happy?

If you are obsessed with this period as well, check out
Herman Miller for the mecca of Mid-Century Modern furniture and inspiration, or the lovely blog
the Mid-Century Modernist, or the very nifty shop
Vintage Swank ...sigh...who knew English teachers dreamt of chairs... It is 5pm...I should be marking papers and returning to the land of "tomorrow I have to go back to work!"-- a place I haven' t missed all that much...
