Lindsay [11:28 AM]: I just thought of a new task.
Lindsay [11:29 AM]: “Build a functional chair.”
Caitlin [11:29 AM]: Ugh. What a waste of time.
Lindsay [11:29 AM]: Not at all. Could YOU build a chair out of wood?
Lindsay [11:29 AM]: I imagine it would be quite challenging.
Caitlin [11:30 AM]: What would I do with it if I did? Where would it go? Do you realize what would be involved in that process?
Lindsay [11:30 AM]: Yup. It would be annoying.
Caitlin [11:31 AM]: Sanding, staining, sawing, screwing, etc. It would be expensive and time-consuming, and the pay-off wouldn’t be there.
Caitlin [11:32 AM]: I don’t have a need for a chair I’ve made myself.
Caitlin [11:32 AM]: Maybe when I have my own house and no furniture.
Lindsay [11:32 AM]: It doesn’t have to be a chair that would retail at Pottery Barn. Sanding? Staining? Way too much effort. I’m just talking about the physical construction. The engineering.
Caitlin [11:33 AM]: Ok, so it would be ugly, expensive, and time-consuming? Even better!
Lindsay [11:33 AM]: Fine! I’ll make my own damn chair. And when I’m sitting pretty, don’t come crying to me.
Lindsay [11:33 AM]: You can sit on the floor.
Caitlin [11:34 AM]: Don’t come crying to me when you get a huge splinter in your butt.
Building shit is major fun.
