House Week #3

Comments: 4


houseWeek_03.jpg

I told you that it wasn’t going to be all pretty. And get ready – there’s worse to come, but today… the Blue House (what else to call it?). I’m not sure how things like this happen, but they do. This graceless, truncated excuse is just around the corner from me. I get a shock every time I walk past it.

Can you imagine the conversation the owners had with the housing company (I refuse to believe an architect was involved)?

Builder: So, um… what colour would you like the house?

Husband: Well, I had my heart set on either the lime green or the yellow, but I think the missus here has something else in mind.

Wife: Yes. The blue. Definitely the blue.

What neighborhood do you live in? I feel like I saw that house in Zengyo or near Fujisawa.

Ugh. Does that colour of blue even exist? I thought it was something that only existed in vacation brocures.
