The Comfy Corner

The other day, during our weekly mac and cheese night, I had a conversation with my friend and future roommate, Vanessa, about nest-making. Now, perhaps this is yet another thing to add to the long list of strange things girls do (a list that grew so long I had to start dating boys) but in this particular case I am intrigued. She has a corner of her bed that she piles high with fluffy pillows and soft blankets thus creating a corner of utter comfort and relaxation. She terms this "the nest." I tried sitting in her "nest" and I must say, my bum has never felt anything more snug or cozy. I felt like all the comforts of home were built into the walls of that nest and were being manifested in the soft fabrics my body was fortunate enough to enjoy. I suddenly turned into a small, hungry chick nestled in the cozy nest, waiting for Vanessa, the mother bird, to bring me my mac and cheese dinner. I didn't want to leave and needless to say I am quite excited for her to move in (as long as she brings the blankets with her). We will have nests everywhere.

So I tried it, I loved it, so I've adopted it and made it my own. And don't hate on me for stealing ideas, changing them slightly and calling it my own because we all do it. I mean just give YouTube a visit and type in "me singing paparazzi by lady gaga." (lack of capitalization necessary). I now live by the "comfy corner" policy. It typically involves me coming home, throwing on my pajamas and dancing around in a little circle singing "comfy corner, comfy corner" and then plopping down on a pile of pillows and blankets. So in this initial entry, I would like to invite you all to my comfy corner. Throw on your pajamas and join me as I rant about the silliness of life's annoyances, joys and confusions. The road is bumpy but my corner's comfy. ; )

For those of you whose minds are more philosophically driven, I haven't left you out. Think of this blog in relation to all of the other things floating out there in cyberspace waiting to be discovered. You could be stalking people on Facebook, you could be checking your email for the 100th time in the past ten minutes, you could be brave enough to leave your cyber-fate to such dangerous things such as Stumble Upon or Chat Roulette. But no, you are reading this blog. You are among a very small group of people looking at this one lonely little page tucked away in the corner...this...comfy...corner. So cuddle up and enjoy.
