“i still feel alone, oh let me go home”
i was reading a magazine today (O magazine, LOL!) at the glasses shop and it had an interesting article in it that i didn’t get to finish reading.
[aside: i got new glasses, and i’m not a big fan of them. the frames are blue/black which is different for me. usually my glasses are some kind of shade of brown. (gold counts
) they’re also smaller so when they slide down my nose i can see straight over the top and i feel like a teacher….i guess the stereotypical kind who glares down at the children over her glasses…. but anyway, the glasses were cheap, so i’m okay with them!
]
[aside: i think it’d be cool if we called stores ’shops’ instead. i know they do that in….the UK?… well, it sounds very cute, i say.
book shop.
record shop.
clothes shop.
food shop.
… okay maybe it doesn’t work for everything.]
well, the article was about a married couple who live in separate apartments.
i thought it was a very ‘interesting’ idea.
i mean, it makes sense if you’re a very independent person and realllly picky about how things are in your home.
a lot of arguments over cleaning would be avoided.
and each person could decorate their house however they please!
i guess it would be doing away with a lot of the ‘compromise’ part of marriage…. which has it’s purpose.
but despite that, i kinda like the idea.
now, with that said, i am FIRMLY against the idea if the apartments are more than a few steps away from eachother… and by a ‘few’ i mean like 5 steps.
i’m talking, the same floor of an apartment building, right next to eachother.
or better yet, across the hall.
…like on soap operas! haha.
i say, if the apartments are farther away than that, you have no idea what the other person is doing!
in the article i read, the husband’s apartment was on the other side of town.
crazzzzzy.
with all the horror stories of people leading double lives, having a spouse who lives on the other side of town would be realllly risky!!
heh, i think the Kramer-Seinfeld relationship would work best.
the door’s always open, you barge in whenever you want, eat the other person’s food and always know what they’re doing and who they’re with.
:D
