All I need is an umbrella drink

[emelbe]

I was away recently and upon my return found that my daughter and her friends had rearranged the living room (which we had talked about before my departure) and, with it, my books (which we had not).

Her: Ta-DA!

Me: Books.

Her: Books?

Me: Books are wrong*. What happened to my books?

Her: …

Me: …

Her: It’s a sunset!

Me: Oh. … Oh!

A couple years ago, I reorganized my books by color. I didn’t expect that it would hold more than aesthetic appeal until I’d done it but it worked for me. It helped me to see them all instead of looking at the same few shelves all the time.

I’ll give the sunset a chance.

*Let's just never mind that some of them were upside down. I spent twenty minutes turning them back upright.

It's beautiful! But books the wrong way round...*twitch*...at least it's easy to fix.

I was seriously twitchy over it.

The explanation of how it happened was neat though. One of the friends who helped removed his glasses while they were setting up the sunset. His vision is bad enough that it made it go all impressionist painting and was easier to arrange them by color without getting distracted by titles.
