[“4. What type of relationship would you rather have with furniture?” – question from a Survey Monkey survey, March, 2015.]
Dear Monkey: I have a problem with my current relationship with furniture. Usually it’s just walking-into, or banging-knees-on, but more recently, as I age, it’s inability-to-get-up-from-without-a-lot-of-effort, or sleeping-all-night-on-when-I-just-wanted-a-nap.
The relationship I really want is for me to be the boss: my furniture does what I want it to, and otherwise just gets the hell out of the way and leaves me alone. In other words, love.
