instant vintage : 09.2009 : All Black Everything (Uncategorized)

Today was (unseasonably?) cool, so I took advantage and wore a jacket.  Can you imagine?  A jacket in September in Los Angeles.  Perish the thought!

Dudeguy and I got into it on the way home, so I was out a photographer…sucka.  I used the opportunity to go exploring on the second floor of the house I live in.  A couple of people left recently, and there was one completely empty room with a mirror on the wall.  Naturally, I assumed it was a photo studio.  Yaaaaaaaaaaay.

Now, I know way back when I first started this here blog, I was supposed to do a formal post on the house.  I’ve toyed with the idea, but would rather not put all the secrets, stories, and general weird happenings that are said to have gone on here out into the internets.  I don’t think anyone would come and visit.  In fact, several of my friends have vowed not to come back over.  I don’t know why.  Nothing ever happened to them while they were here…

Ok, so MAAAAAAAYBE it was because I told them that the house was potentially haunted because a family that used to live there disappeared sometime during the mid-1900’s and all their pictures and furniture are still on the first floor.  No biggie.  I hardly think that’s a reason to never come back over to someone’s house, but that may just be me…

I probably shouldn’t have showed them the blood on the walls, huh?

Possible apparitions aside, it’s a pretty freakin’ sweet house.  Craftsman style, root cellar in back, servant’s quarters complete with dumb waiter, a huge garage, sun room, huge porch, and (my favorite) an old-timey den.  It looks like the room the men retired to to smoke cigars and listen to Orson Welles on a bakelite radio while sitting in big leather chairs.  If I had enough nerve, I’d chill in there, but it just feels weird.

All that said, we’re having a Halloween party!!!  It’ll be on the top level above all the old furniture, pictures of disappeared people and blood on the walls…just saying…you know, in case anyone was concerned for their welfare and sanity.  =D

    I’d be a little put off as well about the “haunted” house issue, but not so much as to never come back over… Hmm… Lovely photos lady.
