House of Entropy and Morning Glories

[nonionay]

I really, really love my house. I say that a lot, but yesterday I realized exactly how inspiring this place is.
I live in a loft that manages to be huge and cramped at the same time, with a big glass diamond-shaped window on one end that shows the trees beyond. I've got a balcony looking through trees onto the bay and the mountains. Spiders dwell in cupboards and corners. Moths flutter like plankton in the air. Outside, morning glory battles with the greenery and flowers, engulfing my house in its beautiful but terrifying tendrils.
I live in the densest neighborhood in town, yet I am isolated and unreachable.

Yes, it will never be clean, but my house is more alive, and has more soul than most humans.

Last night, I lost a beloved character in the Lovecraftian sitcom that is my house. Keffy can explain better than I.

Oh, never fear. I'm not getting rid of the ones outside, just the aphid-infested one in Keffy's room. Don't worry, San and I were very polite when we euthanized it.
I do have to keep them trimmed a little, however, since they're really, really bad this year. I love the other plants too, you know. :-P

Waitaminnit. Jason's drunk? Oooooo.....
