Mirror, mirror on the wall...

Or shall I say the lack of one. Read on and I'll explain... :) We've been officially moved in for a month (YAY!). It feels like the place's been ours forever though. Chris was surprised when I told him that it's been only a month as he's convinced that it's definitely been longer. We've put some of our things on the walls, bought a couple of pieces of furniture, the kitchen stuff is in place (now if I could only cook something edible). Very nice overall. When people come visit they don't even realize that one crucial thing is missing -- a mirror. We have one tiny little mirror in the main bathroom so Chris can at least shave. Other than that, we're unconcerned by our appearances and meander around with food stuck between our teeth and shirts messed up (just kidding). :) Well, sort of. Anyway. I've been the difficult one and haven't liked any bathroom mirrors we've seen so far and we haven't had much time to go look for one. So, we've been mirrorless until we figure out how to proceed. I am thinking that it really is time to do something about it. Say we try to find something next week so we can move on and see. People might start thinking that we're vampires or something. In case you are not "learned" that way, vampires don't see their reflections in the mirrors so they don't have any or would drape them with cloth. Makes you wonder how come all of the movie vampires are always so good looking and put together with perfect makeup if they can't see themselves in the mirror. Shall I point out that we typically go to bed between 2 and 4am. Except we don't fly around like bats looking for fine, edible treats. We sit around staring at the computer screen, wasting our eyesight and our wrists and work to make a living. Or write blogs when we should be sleeping...
