Ok, so of the stereotypical gay traits, I got cooking, decorating, and the obsession with exercise. I cannot, however dress to save my life.
Anywho... Cool decorating thing I did today. I went to IKEA (yay for companies that give some thought to social responsibility!) and got a bunch of LED strip lights. I then mounted them on the back of my display shelves and my TV case. So now from behind the shelves and the TV is this cool blue glow. Costs pennies a year to operate, too, even if I leave them on all the time. I also bought some blue lamps and put one on the side table and one in the corner behind the dining table. So if it's night and I want to set a romantic mood, blue light it is.
For my bedroom I continued the blue lighting theme buying a bunch of these:

and put them on my bedside table and my dresser. I also got another blue floor lamp and put it in a corner.
My apartment looks SOOO cool now.

Well, shall we go?
Yes, let's go.

I've always fancied getting a spray gun and doing my living room dark purple fading to light blue with silver skirting boards.
My boyfriend won't let me go round Bunnings (B&Q equivilent) alone.
There is a slight possibility that I am not actually right all of the time.

I'd lurrve to see you apartment one day
. Maybe you could give me a private viewing?!!! Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourself, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous and talented? Who are you NOT to be?

Oooh... Nephtys...
Is that a Stand for acrylic balls I see on the far left of the photo, next to the lamp?
From where did it come? or was it especially made?
