My apartment is my apartment again

I love Xmas lights. I love them so much that I leave them on 24/7/365, or as many of the 365 as they last until burning out. Then I put up more. It is a sad, sad day for me when I run out of Xmas lights during the offseason and can find nowhere to renew my supply. Last night I put them up again, FINALLY. Here they are. Those of you who've never been in my living space can get some idea of one part of it. It's dark because I don't appreciate the flash, which washes out the Xmas lights.

No one loves my picture posts! But this is an opportunity to use my new icon, which celebrates the excellence of Real Ale. Actually, I don't care if it's CAMRA approved (or whatever that group is); I just like a pint, in a pub. Or several.

I keep switching icons out to add ones I like more. I need one of Alexandra Kollontai... what am I going to jettison for her? I don't know. I want to spend $10 on the ability to have one HUNDRED icons...

yay! someone loves xmas lights as much as me! i totally hear you on having the things burn out and then not being able to find more. which reminds me, i need to go buy some before xmas, so that when my current string dies i won't be left out in the cold...

only i should call them fairy lights.

I love your lights M66. When did you get into this then? I don't remember it from Chicago or Brighton. Do you like other strings of lights or do they have to be xmas ones. We have a string of purple chilis that sophie gave us.
