unexpected benefit of living in a round house #27
Paul and I were having a fight one day, I don’t remember what about, something stupid probably—aren’t most of these fights about something stupid? It’s too bad you only realize that after the fact. Anyway, the fight reached a head and we both stomped off dramatically, as one is wont to do in those moments. Ah, the beauty of an angry exit!
Except we live in a round house. So… although we stomped off in opposite directions, in about 20 seconds we were facing each other again, our expressions mirror images of Pissed Off Spouse. We couldn’t help it—we burst out laughing.
Just goes to show, you can’t run away when you’re walking in circles.

"Dusi's Wings" April, 2003. . . .
"One thing fantasy can do for us is to give shape to the mysterious in the world; another is to make emotional yearning concrete. The early sections of "Dusi's Wings" do just that...there was a strong grasping towards the spiritual in fantasy here that was very promising, and I look forward to reading more by Lassiter." --review, Tangent Online.tags

Loved your closing comment, “Just goes to show, you can’t run away when you’re walking in circles.”
Reminds me of one of mine I think of when I’m searching for th source of a problem.
“Everywhere I go there I am.”
And yes…yurt living, or being a yurt-er, is wonderful…at least for me. Your mileage may vary.

Hello Bob, nice to meet another yurt dweller!
Friends make fun of my living in a tent. I usually respond, “Yes, it’s a tent…but it’s the only tent you ever saw with ceramic tile and hardwood floors…LOL
Bob
Wonderful website, thank you so much. My girlfriend & I are just about to start our yurting adventure in the UK (after I’ve finished building it!)
don’t think being to hot will be a problem!
keep up the great work/info
