So, Rob and I had a twin peaks marathon this weekend.
At one point we decided to have an intermission. The fun kind.
We moved into the bedroom. I lit a candle. I then took the pink Hello Kitty comforter off the bed. We began to kiss. Rob unbuttoned my Eeyore pajama tops. I leaned back on the Pokemon pillow, Pikachu staring out at us, as we consecrated our love.
Holy shit!
Suddenly it all pieced together.
It was the pillow that did it to me.
I tried very hard not to think about it.  I tried so hard not to think of Pikachu that I had an image of Hello Kitty flash through my brain. Oh fuck this is just bad.
Afterwards, I turned to Rob and said" Honey? Do you ever think our bedroom is starting to resemble a little kid's room?"
He did. He tried not to think about it. And was at least as creeped out by the thing as me.
I changed out of the damned pajamas. I put on a black, oversized tee shirt and some black cotton leggings. These are my pajamas now. We are trading in the comforter for a black, furry one. The Pokemon pillow will be replaced by a black velvet one.
I am all for collecting things. I love anime and I think the Japanese are geniuses.
But let's face it, there's a limit. And we have crossed it.
I'm sorry if this is too much information, but the title should have been warning enough, you closet voyeur.
Now, off to Linens and Things...
