Oh, I just posted about milk carriers!

But did you own a LAVA LAMP?????
My first husband---very creative but definitely odd--painted the walls and ceiling of our first bedroom with green and gold pipes running in all directions like a maze. You lay in bed and went insane trying to find a way out. He painted our bathroom like an American flag. Do you think that was antipatriotic or something? He made macram‚ plant holders. And he turned our VW bus into a bordello with red velvet curtains.
We were theatre-what can I say? Confession is good for the soul.

Didn't we do this once before? Deja vu

Shag carpet
Harvest Gold appliances
Yellow painted walls
Bean bag chairs
Lava lamps
Mandalas
Red Mountain wine
Blacklight posters

I at least relieved this with a full-wall poster of the Earthrise from the Moon's perspective

Quite a number. Naugas are small colonial rodents, like prairie dogs. If a pregnant one finds a covered stadium, it's all over. They can denude AstroTurf from below with startling rapidity.
Y'know all that recycled plastic? It's ground into pellets and sent to Nauga ranches. Depressing places. Once they're skinned, the carcasses are injection-molded into those fake pork chops for dogs, and all the collectible toys in every HappyMeal.
The "China" stamped next to the sprue of all those plastic Pumbaas is a red herring, so that Mr. and Mrs. Heartland Parent doesn't have to explain the cruel ecology of "organic" polymers, like virgin Naugahyde.
