Confessions Of A Furniture Shopper

February 09, 2008

BEST DOCUMENTARY SO FAR THIS YEAR: Confessions of a Superhero. Very, very well done. Made me squirm like no other. Gigantically recommended.- - - -Going to see Mark Kozelek at the Aladdin in April. Taking Leigh. Chill night.- - - -Having a motherfucker of a time tracking down a new couch. Here's what I am thinking: Something clean, but, not too clean so it's this stiff, "modern" (dumb) slab. But nothing that looks like it should be covered in plastic in a dysfunctional relative's unused living room. No. No. No.I'm looking for something comfy as hell. So you fall into it and chill the hell out. Leather again, maybe? But no leather with Conan the Barbarian finishing details: Studs and shit, nope.A sectional? Something big and mean with enough space to sit four people shooting the shit, or, two people completely sprawled out. Anyone got a recommendation for Portland shopping?And no, nothing from fuckin' Design Within Reach. Uncomfortable hunks of ever-priced hype. No thanks. That shit looks nice and all, until you sit on the goddamned thing. Help.
