Why is a raven like a writing desk?

What does that absurd little riddle have to do with this post? Well, let me tell you. There is a little house in Provoland that I lovingly refer to as The Alice in Wonderland House. 'Tis a quaint little brick house painted butter yellow with a mint green and white striped roof, pink and white accents on the exterior, a private garden area with white wrought iron table and chair furnishings, rose bushes in front, and a stone path. I tried to find a picture of the house, but apparently no one TAKES pictures of that house ever because none were to be found.

I have loved that house since I was just a wee li'l freshman girl.

So, my to-do list thing was to go inside of it. Seeing as how it is apartment finding time here, Priscilla and I went to the house and asked for a tour. I found out that that house is even on the Utah Historical Registry-made in 1918!

Coolness points: up 3.

The interior proved to be as amazing as the exterior. Lavender walls, a steep wooden staircase that splits left and right at the top, white trim, maple wood everythings with white accent knobs. It was heaven being in that house! Alas, rent there is THREE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FIVE DOLLARS A MONTH ALL YEAR ROUND! Off with her head, I say.

But I'm not bitter.

All in all, it was a splendid experience. Capital! Not at all a floccinaucinihilipilification- that house is honorificabilitudinitatibus!

Speak English! I don't know the meaning of half those long words, and I don't believe you do either!, said the Eaglet (from the actual book, Alice in Wonderland)

Er, right. I mean, that house is just grand :)
