I am not saying I have a Photographic Memory (I am just sayin')

I was at the good old FIRC a few months ago and they had a pile of magazines for free. One magazine was Metropolitan Home May 2009. The homes featured were pretty much amazing and the polar opposite of my "rustic" home.

While perusing the magazine, I came upon this picture of a bathroom that belonged to the featured architects/homeowners' sons.

For some reason the picture sent a chill through my body. I had no idea why. I just stared at it for a while but couldn't figure out why I had that reaction to the photograph.

Flash forward to yesterday. I am sitting on my porch looking through the magazine again and when I came across the picture, it hit me. I know where I had seen the bathroom before.

Do you remember the movie THE SHINING? Holy crap. Remember this scene?

Uncanny right? That movie was made in 1980.

Apparently, turning to horror movies for bathroom design inspiration is common. While searching google images to find the Shining bathroom, I found this picture.

I especially like the added blood-red paint detail.

I love it so much I am going to see if Matt will let me remodel our bathroom.

Another article in Metropolitan Home May 2009 featured a stunning Boston home owned by these two ladies.

Notice anything weird? No, I am not referring to the fact that they are two chicks.  I am talking about (that in my opinion) they look like clones.

Damn I am hot! I need to find my clone so I can marry her.

Well what do I know? All white people pretty much look alike to me. Except for Matt. I can usually pick him out in a crowd. Well, unless I have had a few cocktails and then I might end up walking up to any random blue-eyed guy between the age of 30-60 and demanding that he buy me chicken wings and a chardonnay. Not that that has ever happened. I am just saying it could.
