The Yellow Wallpaper, by Charlotte Perkins Gilman

I was talking to Sean and describing my wallpaper in great detail (even offering to send him a photo) and he was reminded of this short story. Now that I've read it I can see myself descending into Requiem-for-a-dream-esque madness caused by my wallpaper. I have great intentions of blogging all of the wallpapers in my house. They are all very surreal and none of them match the carpet they reside next to.

Did you ever see the wallpaper at Ryan's old Mansion on Cross Road ? Bugger me, now THERE was a big walk-in Magic Eye picture in the flesh...

I just can't imagine a time when that kind of visual horror couldhave ever seemed APPEALING !

Clearly nobody used to get hangovers.
