Prada's Cousin

Everyone's peeked inside a bathroom cabinet or two. Just to see if Aspirin and cotton balls are shelf-sharing with anything peculiarly odd. Or super-interesting.

But honestly, if you're trying to gain snap-shot insight into the inner workings -- or bizzarro-traits -- of that certain someone, give the ol' nightstand a gander. You'd be surprised at how telling it really is.

I'll start:

• hello kitty radio alarm clock
• wishing stones box with emil's old dog tags
• journal with deliciously smooth ink pen
• cucumber-melon hand cream
• old lamp with weird-but-lovely-when-lit lampshade
• two candles, used matches and a sushi roku match book
• a teetering pile of books
• yellow, pocket-sized photo album with favorite sweden pics
• sandal-scandal footsie lotion

Explains everything, doesn't it?
