Nothing else truly embodies the happiness of our new home like this picture of Koshka. Kitteh!



Here are some pictures at last. We are slowly getting everything cleaned up, pictures hung, and everything arranged. The only room still full of boxes is the library. Pictures of the yard and other rooms coming in the near future.



Here is our living room, which is free of boxes and has some decoration now:


This is my office (otherwise known as the Red Chair) where I appear to be working but am actually playing WoW:


Original Soviet propoganda posters and a giant map of the Soviet Union circa the 1920s over the sofa:


The fireplace is converted into Kitteh's Cave:


It's Law & Order time! Over there you can see the kitchen:


My kitchen, which is awesome:


Fancy china cabinet!






Sly Kitteh is sly:


Kitteh and Roomba have declared a truce:


Round kitteh is round:


If Koshka is in the position, it means you must pet his belly and back at the same time:




Here are my awesome, on sale, super comfortable shoes:

Please tell me more about that lovely red chair.

[identity profile] tsarina.livejournal.com 2008-08-26 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
It is incredibly comfortable, easy to clean, good to sit forward or sideways... it is pretty awesome. It is the contemporary chair from Lack's Furniture. (It also comes in brown and olive) It was a wedding present from Mike's parents, which was super awesome.

I love your house.

[eyes wow set up]

Do you play with your touch pad? I need a mouse which keeps me to table and chairs which I hate.

Did you ever get the beta up?

Thanks! (See, omg you should live in Texas!)

I actually have a wireless mouse. The arm of my chair is quite excellent for it. And no, I haven't set up the beta yet. Feh! I need to get on that.

Those are indeed awesome shoes (and I don't even wear shoes anymore), and Koshka looks perfectly at home. =) Would you like to trade him for a sweet, extremely soft elderly cat who happens to think you should GET OUT OF BED at the first sign of movement in the morning so you can feed her two hours hence?

Lily liked sleeping in fireplaces back when we lived in the apartment off Greystone. The previous owners had apparently liked fires. Lily does not like baths. We made sure the screen blocking the fireplace was included with the deal when we bought our first house.

Cute cats + cute house = awww.

I like the wacky floor lamp in the third picture.

Yay for aww factor. The wacky floor lamp is from IKEA, land of odd shaped light fixtures.

I have an almost identical rug!

We have that floor lamp too! Bizarre.

Livejournal has brought us together in decorating synchronization!

first, that chair is awesome. i'm extremely envious. next time i move, i'm splurging on the ultimate comfy chair... yet to be determined, but i'll find it!

i also envy the china cabinet. i keep fancy glasses on the off chance that one day, i too will have a glass-fronted cabinet of some kind to display them in.

what you did with the fireplace is brilliant. it looks like cat heaven. hell, the whole place looks amazingly comfortable and artistic. =)

I can take very little credit for how nice the house looks. The previous owner closed the chimney and put up the nice fireplace mantle. I did put the cat bed there! :D

I love that red chair Koshka is sleeping on. When did you get it? I don't remember you having it before. Also, Truong got a huge kick out of the cat bed in the fireplace and I love that your kitchen cabinets have glass faces so you can see what's inside!

[identity profile] tsarina.livejournal.com 2008-08-27 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
Mike's parents bought it while they were visiting, and it was delivered in early January. I'm glad Truong appreciates the awesomeness of the kitty cave fireplace.

Sorry I missed your call! I was at a work training and didn't have my phone with me.

Those look awesome. The ones I got are Privo's (http://zeta.zappos.com/product/7353817/color/347) but I got them much cheaper at DSW. They didn't have the green ones though.

what a beautiful place! it's lovely. i wish you so much happiness.

i love yer kitteh.

great shoes! where'd you find them?

[identity profile] tsarina.livejournal.com 2008-08-27 07:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you!
Kitteh also thanks you with rumbling purrs.

I found them at DSW, they are privo floats. They were at least twenty bucks less than the price at most other places.
