Ok, so here's one of the new things I've decided to do. I figure I spend a good deal of time looking at auction catalogs and the like (its work-related, I swear), so I might as well blog about some of the things that I really, really like but could never afford unless I win the lottery or figure out that I am somehow the long-lost granddaughter of royalty or something, like in the Princess Diaries (no, I have not seen the movie, but I saw the commercials so I pretty much figured it out).

fyi), so it does make me pause and wonder for a moment. And by wonder, I mean wonder where it will go in my twenty-room mansion...I did say this was all delusional, after all, so I might as well go the full ten yards. Has anyone seen Hans, my personal Swedish masseuse, lately? I think I pulled something with all of this ridiculous daydreaming.
