Michael Weiss couch

I found this couch on craiglist and purchased it. it was less 50% of the list price and is in
excellent condition. This is from the modernism collection. If Zee wouldnt climb on the couch
so much i would leave it in the living room but, fortunately for me, i can put it in the study and enjoy it.

Now im trying to trash my old futon.

the eye candy is in the back

I love the huge lamp in the background. I was surfing ebay for some mid century lamps and
to my surprise the lamp in the back stood out more than what was on sale.
lovin it.

Chair: Vanguard V542
Radio: Magnovox Spatial StereoD8443

After two months of searching, I finally found a chair I can relax in while listening to music or reading a good book.
Thanks NOEL Furniture!
I really appreciate modern furniture with a bit of retro twist. The pattern on the chair reminds me of early 80’s gritty breakin’.

So people have asked for me to “return” to the Houston grind.
meaning they’d like to see me DJ around again.
I may do some things here and there.

I just submitted a mix CD for the Hosuton Press DJ spin-off and we’ll see how that goes.
Feb 29th party is going to be great. I’m calling all my old friends.

hooo!
