Oh yeah, I now own my very own spanking new couch. It is the first piece of furniture I have bought. It is a big deal. Bigger than just owning a really new cool piece to highlight my new really cool living room.
It symbolizes growth.
In the past I have swayed away from buying anything that wouldn't fit in my car-easier escape route that way. This method of madness, is what has allowed me to pick up and move at the drop of the hat from the East Coast to the Midwest to the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. Does me buying this couch signify my willingness to settle down and not pack up the Civic and move? In some ways I say why yes, yes it does. I now have a responsibility to this couch.
I love Denver and I think I very well could be here for awhile. *ahem* I know hard to believe-but I really think I was able to overcome my most recent attack of the 2-year move (aka get me the heck out of here) itch.. if the sun keeps shining and the mountains keep showing--I'm pretty sure me and my couch will continue kickin' it 80218 style for a while.
