Hello, world!
My name is Chrisanna and I am an unmitigated and unrepentant people watcher who enjoys observing life and finding the humor and universal in it. The name of my blog is inspired by the title given to a room featured in the 2009 Pasadena Showhouse Catalog. In the show house, the Dignitary's Reteat was a ridiculous, decorated former utility closet set up with a sofa and an ugly glass table. I mean, who is it that is going to be in this "room"? And who is the world dreamed up the title Dignitary's Retreat?!? Hilarious.
My blog's purpose is simply to record and share some of life's humorous or thought provoking experiences, which generally spring forth from the most mundane of circumstances. As serious and as somber as life can feel at times, I believe it's a survival skill to know how to laugh and appreciate the inanity that surrounds us, if you have eyes to see! So, look around people! It's just waiting for you to appreciate it. Truly.
Finding the humor is necessary for me, having recently moving back to Washington DC after many years living in Santa Barbara, CA. Returning home can be fraught with peril, although it has its nice moments, too. Yes, friends, I am in the process of re-booting my life. An opportunity and a challenge, compounded by the fact that I am back in the room I grew up in, sleeping on the same twin sized mattress. Not so glorious, but it leaves room for a whole lotta humor. Join me!
