i don't want to be seen as a pretty thing;
it's the pretty things we're always breaking

taliesen

today we took a gander around taliesen, frank lloyd wright’s home in spring green, wi. the tour was quite interesting, if somewhat overpriced. one obnoxious thing about the place, and many other FLLW creations, i understand, is the short, short ceilings — many times thoughout the tour i had to duck, lest i scrape my hair on the low ceilings. my dad, who is a few inches taller than me, had it even worse. still, interesting.

also, my parents brought out my new bookcases, which my father built for me as a graduation present. a bit late, as far as presents go, but i didn’t actually specify what i wanted until this summer, and they look fantastic, which makes it all worthwhile.
