Stupid Couch
What did I do last night? Not a whole hell of a lot. I came home, sautéed the hell out of some fresh vegetables and ate dinner. I was planning on taking a walk after that, but the couch just fell so good that instead, I played several hours of Super Nintendo. After that I was going to do some sit-ups, but the couch still felt so good that I watched a little tv instead.
At some point I was going to finish the paper maché alien that I’ve been working on for so long; at some point I was going to make dough for the roasted garlic, eggplant and pepperoni pizza I have been meaning to make all week.
But the couch just felt so damn good and I didn’t have the energy to do any of those things. Until about ten o’clock that is. Right about the time I planned on going to bed, I woke up. So did about 200 sit-ups, and I checked my email. Then I went to bed and laid in the darkness, wide awake but trying to sleep for I don’t know how long.
Tonight though, tonight I’m going to take a walk, finish the alien, make some dough and do my sit-ups. Unless the couch feels too good…

Did you ever see the Tick episode, Evil Sits Down For A Moment, where he was seduced by the comfy chair? It's like that, except you're drawn better.

I've known some mighty fine couches in my day. I've also known some man-eating deathtraps cleverly disguised in couch form. None finer, however, than my hideous orange fake leather couch I inherited from Nate. When I moved out of the house, I was happy to send it off with Steve to his first apt., where it experienced a great many things. I believe it rode around in Scotty's van for a while... and last I knew, it's still holding it down in Gene's basement. Rest easy, comfy orange couch with the armrests that felt like pillows; you provided solace and comfort to the passed out bodies of many a drunken carouser.

The alien should be completely constructed by the end of the weekend and hopefully painted by by mid-next week. Pictures will be sure to follow.
