Resting Spots

Feeling like you are about to pass out?  Perhaps you’ve just learned that your pregnancy test was positive and at 45 you had other ideas of how you were going to spend the next 18 years!  Maybe you are having a serious case of the vapors, because you noticed your mother’s new stripper video reached 500,000 hits on YouTube.  Maybe you have to sit down quickly every time you think about your recent trip to the market and you were half way down the can goods aisle before it was pointed out you forgot to put on your pants.  It could be due to those nagging dizzy spells caused by the guilt of what you had to do to get out of that speeding ticket last week.  Or, you realized the IPhone pic of this morning's erection was sent to all your Twitter followers and not just that hooker in Miami.  Whatever the case, these are good spots to catch your breath.

    Any idea if that Eric Roth photo is a room designed by Frank Roop? It looks like a Bernd Haussmann painting and Jere sculpture on the fireplace which are both trademark Roop features. Just wonderin'.

    Steve,
    I believe it was from an Elle Decor but I'm not sure. I only file things by photographer. I could check, but I'd have to go through about 8000 magazines...so...short answer...I have no idea...

    I like the ones that look like they are just waiting for shrink and patient....

    I rather like the look of a pair of day beds /chaises longue on either side of a chimneypiece, although I'm not so sure how practical that seating arragement would be; you might be committing a huge faux pas if you fully stretched out in the way the chair's design intended, and perching on the section of the chair without the back might become uncomfortable after a long while. A good posture class, however.

    Shit...My heart is STILL beating from your 'joyful' scenarios. I missed looking at the images.

    haha! I could always use a fainting sofa...even if I was just imagining one of those scenarios...
