After work today, we went back to the furniture store, where J. ordered a couch in “campaign glacier” (a.k.a. a bluish grey) and a swiveling plush recliner in “bella midnight” (a very pretty dark blue). Then we got a little “mission oak” table to go between them, which is both a beautiful piece of furniture on its own and strikingly lovely next to the blue fabric for the chair. (It might be this one.) It’s fun to shop for furniture!

Oh! And the furniture store salesman (Paul S.) went to the same N.C. high school with J, in the graduating class a year after him, and knows a whole lot of N.C. students and teachers in common! And then he also knows J’s co-worker’s husband here in Eugene, having taken a really interesting lit class from him. Eugene is very often a small world, but having the same home town on the other side of the country is pretty amazing.
