Mousy Babe

this is an ode to a good and strange life. we’re in a band. we work sometimes. we travel a lot. we drink coffee, alcohol and gasoline. sometimes we fight and struggle with weird problems. but best of all we meet some weirdass people.

Shabby Chic at the Office

My cubicle is a little more peculiar than the typical brown office cube. I sit in this long narrow space with a “square window” cut out of it. When I look out my window, I see a symmetrical office with the same window where my coworker Emily sits.

Our walls are painted blue and red, so it has this sort of picket-fence cookie cutter neighborhood feel.

When Emily started working here we had this little joke going that we should put curtains up and create a little sitting area to have tea. A couple weeks later, she shows up with some frumpy granny curtains from a church yard sale that were perfect for this!

Here we are stapling the curtains to our blue and red walls. She had to staple mine because I couldn’t reach it.

The view from my window. Emily’s pinning her curtain to one side.

This is where I sit, under the refreshing shade of granny curtains!
