The leopard in our living room
We got new carpet today. After 12 years in this house, the carpet was pretty well worn out. We went looking at the beginning of the summer, and nothing really impressed us. But then we saw a sample of leopard-print carpet. That one spoke to us. Everyone who knows us will say something like, “Stan and Cathy got leopard carpet? Yeah, that fits.” And Lucinda likes it, too. You know what they say about the fruit and the tree.
So here it is, in all its glory.

Stan, I cannot believe that you have the SAME Route 66 print on your couch that I put on our basement futon. We don’t have it anymore; gave it away because it really wanted to be a flat bed more than a futon. Gave up on trying to fix it; gave it away via Freecycle to a woman who needed a bed for her girls.
The carpet *is* pretty cool.

I only know you through blogging, and I’d say it fits. Right on!

I’ve been hunting the internet looking for a place to buy such carpet. Hopefully I’ll find somewhere as that is way cool.

Well, it turned out that we didn’t have to go anywhere exotic to get it. It was at Home Depot. It was just in the ‘commercial’ section, one aisle over from all the other carpet.
